"This took place 2 days ago near Duck mountain Provincial Park by Metis or Treaty "Sustenance Hunters" 12 elk, mostly female that were probably pregnant. A total lack of respect for wildlife.....I don't care what card you hold save something for our next generations

I don't care what origin you are, they should be stung up. I'm not racist in anyway but who wants to bet they won't be dealt with like a Caucasian.
 
So how many people will 12 elk feed for a winter...12 families??? I'm pretty sure a lot more are being shot and these 12 are only a drop in a bucket!!
Revoke the right to subsistence hunt and issue monthly government meat coupons.... most likely it would start a shyt storm but something has to be done.
 
I was going to start a thread on it here and seen this one was already started. I had just posted this in the thread Re Hunger Strike: Screen capture from Chief Theresa Spence Facebook page

Some of the comments I can share here:

...
this is very disturbing....if you read the text he is claiming to be doing his part for "idle no more"! WOW! The people that I know that are interested in ensuring that mother earth is here for our children and grandchildren also believe that "the earth does not belong to us..we belong to the earth" Take only what you need " what part of this senseless act ensures that there will be enough left for our children and grandchildren!

...

Darren Shipp: I have been thinking about this all day. I am blessed to be making my living in the outdoor industry. If this keeps up, that will all end for me in this province, And I love this province, I would hate to move. This HAS to become public, you can complain to Manitoba Conservation, but it wont go anywhere. They are just puppets whose strings are attached to politicians fingers. If anybody wants to see the video, just drop me a line at darrenshipp8@gmail.com I will be forwarding it to the Winnipeg free press and the Winnipeg sun

...

I'm glad this is getting out I know somebody who witnessed this! They were hunting on Private land about a week ago and that group came and flock shot everything in sight! Conservation had to kill the remaining wounded animals! It's disgusting beyond all reasons daren and I will text you who this person was!

...

This is not 12 Elk but 24 elk destroyed if you consider the pregnant ones.

...

well if we all just sit on our asses and don't write to our minister of wildlife with pics like this nothing wil be done about it a crew from birch river area was up in canora area with 15 moose on a trailor bragging about it just about got beat up

...

does not look good, these guys are not on a hunger strike.............

...

Not even for Cows?? I wonder how the Hunger Strike Lady is doing? Maybe she should bring this up if she gets a face to face with Harper!! BLACKMAIL!!......Nope, don't do it!

Elk Slaughter Duck Mountain Manitoba December 2012

Years ago I had finally got drawn for Cooking Lake in Alberta and was really looking foreward to seeing a shootable bull elk. Turned out that two days before the season opened they allowed the native hunters in first and the elk were all driven back into the park. Took almost the two weeks of the season before the elk started to come back across the fence in the daytime in order to shoot a bull elk.
They close highway 40 for just that reason as it is the wintering and calving area for elk in that area and would be wholesale slaughter if they allowed people to drive thru there. For the Olympics in 1988 they kept it open and had to have constant supervision to stop poaching of the elk beside the road.
 
Only 12??? In Labrador, the Quebec Innu's bring flat bed transport trucks and stack em 9' high...The most I ever seen was 4 trucks...thats a :bigHug::bigHug::bigHug::bigHug: ton of dead caribou, and its the primary reason there is no more non-resident caribou hunting in Labrador.
 
A tag system for aboriginal hunters would sort this out...

They won't do that... Why because they don't have to and they will tell them to shove it...

They abuse the ability to hunt all over the place and say its about rights and food ect I've seen them shoot deer cut the head off and leave the rest that was hunting for meat on private no tresspassing no hunting posted area. The person who lived there told them to get off their property every single year they say they have a right she said I have a right to get you off my land. She was tired of dodgeing bullets while she worked her own farm.
 
So what are they going to do (natives) when they've hunted everything into extinction in canada?. Seems highly overkill to be sustenance hunting...
 
I sent an email to CTV News this morning when I heard about this and saw the pics and youtube video posted on another forum. It likely wont make it to the news real but you just never know. I'm disgusted by what I saw.

I have been moose hunting for 10 years now, this year I FINALLY got a tag in MY name for a Bull. In the 10 years I have been hunting the elusive moose, our group has gotten 2 bull tags (mine being one of them) and a cow tag, so 3 tags in 10 years for a hunting group of 10 people. We were all very excited this year and one of our guys was up at camp 2 days before the season opened to do some bird hunting. He was walking from his truck parked on a road to the bush line with his shotgun loaded with bird shot when a bull moose walked out onto the road 30 yards in front of him and stood there. A truck pulled up and a native got out with a rifle, he asked our guy if he was gonna shoot that there moose and Ray said not until Saturday when the season opens, the Native lifted his rifle and dropped it right in the middle of the road. Made a call on his cell and his buddies showed up in a few minutes to cut it in half and through it into their truck. Needless to say, we never saw a Bull all week during our LEGAL hunt.

There's a comment that this is just one truck load.Apparently there was another pickup full as well.
 
The Supreme Court of Canada has upheld the Crown's right and duty to make regulations that apply to all for the purposes of safety and conservation. This incident clearly effects the sustainability of that elk herd.
What is required is the political will to actually do the enforcement.

In our modern, liberal society, one of the most damaging allegations that can be made against any white (especially male) person in the public eye is that they are a racist. And people that are not racist are deathly afraid of it, and will bend over backwards to accommodate the people that actually are the racists.
