MLA introduces bill promoting science-based hunting regs

[tokguy]

There's been lots of science funded by oil companies. We have seen the internal reports from companies where there own scientists were raising alarm bells as early as 1958. If you don't believe the scientists funded by Shell and BP who will you believe?...

Is this to do with hunting...or are you just grinding an axe that we are to guess about?

^^^ Oh FFS! Get over it and focus on the matter of discussion in the thread!

Shesh!

It is the matter of.the thread. Whatever ideology is in power will subvert laws, whether they are well intentioned or not.

Somehow you believe government is interested in solving problems. They are the problem, not solution.

MODERATORS: As I am the OP I am asking for you to shut this thread down.
It is apparent some of the children are fixated on unrelated matters to the point they feel they have to intrude on unrelated topics repeatedly.
Don't have much tolerance for such childish behavior, and certainly do not wish to encourage that by leaving this open.

Thanks in advance!

As a retired Biologist, I can tell you that science IS supposed to be the basis of management decisions.
As a Resident Hunter in BC I can tell that is simply not the case both here & elsewhere.
We are now governed by political decisions, emotion & catering to specific interest groups.

So while what he is proposing isn't actually "new", it is a rather refreshing take on just where we should be returning to in terms of PROPER Management.

It's alarming how the politicians will twist science to their advantage when possible and then simply ignore it when not..... then they wonder why trust is dropping for public institutions and science itself.
