9 1/2 month season with bag limit of 50 per day, no possession limit and an amendment to allow the meat to spoil.
Sounds good to me - shoot em all.

Easy now. It is still a proposal not regulation.
this is not the first time this has been tried. i think it even made it to the second or third reading a year or two ago before all bills got scrapped for whatever reason. either way 100% support this. wonder how to hunt them ? likely be out of a boat like diver ducks, they're active all times of the day. I wonder how the rec boaters will react to guys blasting shotguns at 11am on the water. time will tell.
Can you eat them
There are recipes, but I was thinking maybe you could burn them. Three pieces of wood and a couple Cormorants in the stove should burn for awhile..
You coukd layer them like I did with wood and bags of coal out west. Green wood on the bottom of the stove( four by three by four foot box), two bags of coal on top, coal oil, topped off with one layer of green wood a layer of dry wood a splash of coal oil on the top wood and lighter up. The stove would burn for about a month to five weeks in a Northern Alberta winter.
From what I understand, this would open up a hunting season, here in the north, that doesn't exist right now. Currently, a small game license is not valid during the summer months. I can't remember the exact dates, something like June 14th to late August I believe. Therefore, if this proposal goes through, it would be the only hunting season available in those summer months. That's something that I would like to see happen. I always thought that disallowing hunting during the summer months, up here in the north, was dumb, when the population is much denser in the south and, they are allowed to hunt in the summer. I don't buy the bull crap that vacationers in the north are the issue or, that the bush is denser up here, making it more difficult to see what you're shooting at.
Great idea but 30 yrs. too late, not rocket science to figure out where all the baitfish went from lake huron and Georgian bay. Would see packs of cormorants that would cover 5 acres on lake huron back in the 1980's and 90's
Seems weird that they were protected and couldn't be shot, and now it is going to be a free for all. Could it be because of a new government that actually assessed the facts? Also good that they are not being treated as migratory birds, therefore no federal license needed.
