There is regulation. It's not total free-for-all. Can you provide your source identifying that the hunt by indigenous persons is un-regulated.
And the buffalo did very well, when the settlers came.
Where did they get firearms? Settlers tricking them for their lands.
Everything that moves? Really? I'm sure no other race/culture does any of those things.
You should look at the times before the settlers came, and what the indigenous shared, and how the true traditionals maintained resources. What covenants and agreements that the settlers broke. Do you really think everthing is the way it is now, because of first nations peoples?
Elders should control them, you say. Maybe the elders of the other races who perpetuate the same actions, should control their younger, also. Awesome plan.
Statistical backup proving the assertion?
So you want the politicians to control a specific race/culture. But not you. Do I have that correct?
Anyone have a single, solid, verifiable statistic, showing that the indigenous poachers, are the root cause of the declines in ungulate populations, in a disproportionate amount as related to poachers of any other race/culture?
Indigenous/First Nations, as well as another number of race/cultures (Ukrainian, Chinese, shall I go on?), were systematically and disproportionately subject to treachery, mistreatment, false imprisonments, and torture, at the hands of those who came to these lands.
Don't like what is going on? Look at the real root of the problem. How things really came about to be like they are today.
Just like personal responsibility and accountability. If something is wrong in your life, there is no one else to blame, but yourself. Took me alot of years to figure that one out, and ACCEPT it as a reality. Not always easy to see, not always easy to accept. But it is reality.
The fisheries worked out very well, under the regulations of the Government. The same Government which also regulates the hunt. Imagine that, if you will.
Sorry, I don't prescribe to the theory that the indigenous peoples of Canada are the root cause of all our problems.
