Where’s the outrage over black-bear hunt?

I am so disappointed in the lack of outrage over the announcement that our government has granted more than 4,800 licences for the spring black bear hunt.

And this is more than double last year’s number. I understand this hunt has an “essential service” designation. Says who?

Hunting for sport is not essential, especially at a time when mothers and their young are at such great risk.
