We live on a shrinking planet with dwindling resources and human numbers at an all time high.

Conservation should be uppermost in our thoughts, or North America will soon resemble other parts of the Earth where the natural resources are pushed beyond recovery limits.

Me me me is not the answer that will cut it when our grown up grandchildren are looking at pictures of long extinct moose.

my opinion only

Edit: This coming from a guy with 25% Inuit BTW.
 
I heard plenty with your opinion years ago, only to be toting a card today....

My dad said it best.....30yrs ago if you called someone an Indian, they would fight you. Now everyone is fighting to be one....

I'm happy to hear you know what I wanna be :rolleyes: My idea is if you are too lazy to take your game following the rules.....you shouldnt be hunting. My favorite part of hunting is the challenge. Why would I want to get rid of it?

Well put! In an age of trail cameras,GPS,ATV's and 4x4 trucks people are losing sight of the pressure that our game populations are going through. I'm not condemming aboriginal hunting rights just saying that tyreaties and such were not drafted when this type of equipment was available. Like my sigline says.... someone must speak for the wildlife.
 
Let's see
Too busy at work to officially get answer
But part of my job is research gun nuts forum
And I will take legal advice from the guys on the Internet

TROLL

My guess would be that the Natural Resources Officer asks what Métis community the Métis hunter lives & is recognized in? And charges them using this angle?

^This is so true! Every time a hunter or fisherman of whatever lineage or background puts up his rifle/shotgun/bow/rod/net up, only he or she knows the right answer within themselves. It's either a selfish act that denies others fair hunting or fishing opportunities on a pressured species or it's not. Limits have a purposeful meaning.

Edit: I've been to middle eastern countries and encountered "hunters." When asked what they bagged with thier shotguns, one of them proudly displayed from thier gamebag what appeared to my eyes as a string of dead sparrows. And they were very proud & happy about it!
This is not my vision for Canada. But if we are not careful, this is our future too.
