Trapping is inhumane, indiscriminate, and an archaic, horrific practice that needs to become part of Canada’s history, not its present or future.

Small financial gains for the fur trade should never come at the expense of animal protection, public safety, or ecological health.
Beavers are keystone species that create wetlands, support biodiversity, and regulate water systems. Policies should safeguard habitats on Crown and private lands from increased or indiscriminate trapping, especially during the closed season. I, like I imagine the majority of Canadians, strongly oppose this proposal.
