Archbishop Involved in Deer Debate

Ontario’s Minister of Natural Resources has received a strongly worded letter from a Kenora area religious leader.
Anglican Archbishop David Ashdown has written a letter complaining about the deer population in the Northwest.
Ashdown says the deer have lost their fear of humans and are becoming unpredictable and aggressive.
He suggests the crown has the responsibility of protecting local residents, and suggests a cull of the urban deer population.
Ashdown says the last straw came last week, when a deer threatened a young child in her own back yard.
