Hard to take when you only have weekends off. Let's get real people! This is 2025!
Nova Scotian should allow its residents to hunt Sundays.

That was my biggest issue, by the time deer season. Starts you have like 2 hours after work if you can hunt in your own property or very close to work/home but then day light savings time kicks in and it dark before 5pm so after work is a nogo and then that just leaves you with Saturday. That's it. Bill #### if you ask me.
Well isn't that a strikingly convincing counter-argument.
You're just full of infinite wisdom, aren't you.

And here you are still convinced your argument was solid and reasonnable
Yes, you absolutely made a texbook gungrabber argument. Textbook.
And its here forever, for everyone to see.
Ban all those dumb hikers! You're so much smarter and trustworthy than they are!
Think of the children! Support a ban on walking! Its just common sense!
Just staggering.

He is right though in that your thought process about banning people from entering the woods is literally the exact same as anti gunners. Punish everyone because 1 person might cause harm.
It’s worth the ban if it saves just one life, right?
How exactly is someone walking going to start a forest fire? Shuffling their feet fast enough to generate heat? Maybe if they throw a rock it might make a spark? Static charge igniting gas someone had spilt?
Its impossible to wrap my head around how someone could be for a walking ban, but against firearm bans at the same time.
This level of philosophical inconsistency is the epitome of nonsense.
This leads to a single conclusion about Supercub and his real stance on guns. It is what it is.

He is not right ......... My thought process is that temporary closing the woods for a few days is hardly the same as having your firearms confiscated, never to be allowed to own that firearm again. Folks put their own selfish wants over the protection of those who have a lot more to lose than them. I live in a heavily wooded area and have a lot to lose and fully agree with the temp closures. I dare say that those who would stomp the most about the temp. closures would most probably live in a spot that would not be threatened by fires so have nothing to lose.
How many homes have been lost in NS this summer alone to wildfires? (From AI ...... Wildfires in the Long Lake area of Annapolis County destroyed 20 homes on Sunday, August 24.)

Yet that was caused by lightening. No ban would have stopped it. Plus the tropical storm erin helped push the fire over the fire breaks. We need the big water bombers as many of the area cannot be accessed. But the government never learned from the Shelburn or Tantallon fires.
Actually was another grass fire in my town started by the ambers and burnt leaves falling from that big wildfire.
Just some burnt leaves I found scattered all over my property when went to check on my house and pull some stuff to pre evacuate if need be.
My house is only 20mins from that wildfire. But like any laws, rules etc. You are going to have people say F it.. Those are the ones that are starting the fires and are careless.
And yet in your infinite wisdom, you still cant answer how walking in the woods is a fire hazard.
Listen to yourself.
A walking prohibition.
Not an open flame prohibition, not a flammable liquid/ignition device carry prohibition, not a propane/fireworks prohibition.
Instead, a full on walking prohibition. Walking!
Temporary or not, its still the exact concept and ideology of restricting basic freedom under the pretense of safety. Give an inch...

I thought Timmy told us we didn't need water bombers ?
The real problem is Nova Scotians themselves. Everything is GD emergency and they want the Gov to fix every GD thing. But Nova Scotians don't have the attention span to expect or deserve results, they just flip flop over to the next emergency to pearl clutch and gasp about; and forget about the last, or what really is an emergency.

Yup. Not sure how many times told some person the dangers of why you cannot fight fires at night, or the military dont fight uncontrolled fires, or bombers cannot land in fog or night.
But they want them to do something without knowing anything. Sorta like my mother, great at telling us what to do, but once you hand her the tools. It is I don't know how to do it.

If people from other provinces come over and can go on our public land willy nilly and blow away our deer it kind of sucks for us. Where i'm at is a good deer population, enough that you can take buck or doe and people in our own province will come with a large group and just walk the woods shooting anything.
We had a group years ago (i believe from bridgewater area) come up and hunt up here and they shot up everything. Just an absolute stack of carcasses. deer were slow recovering after that. Even now on opening day early AM you can see a string of tail lights coming from the city to hunt out where we live.
If everyone nearby from other provinces too could plan a hunting expedition on our land it would be even m ore difficult for us that live here. More no hunting/no trespassing signs going up every year.
I do agree with you though it's silly to have to pay money to put meat on the table. I think putting your name in for a free tag raffle or something would be fair.

Yes, it is exactly the same. Punish everyone because apparently nobody can be trusted to follow the rules. Let me make it easy.
No matter how many restrictions you place on people who follow the rules, it is 100% without a doubt not going to do anything to stop the uncontrollable lighting from causing forest fires.
Now, to prove my point, i will use the same sentence with a few words replaced.
No matter how many restrictions you place on gun owners who follow the rules, it is 100% without a doubt not going to do anything to stop the uncontrollable criminals from causing gun crimes.
If it saves one life = if it saves one house
Do tell, what’s the fire risk of a law abiding citizen walking in the forest?
There SHOULD be a Taxpayers vote on it !

I lean towards direct democracy so I would support this.
Edit:
Meant to reply to this to tag you, not just post a comment first time.
Just signed the petition, I spend a good chunk of my day in church but a walk for upland bird afterwards sounds great. Most folk in my church im sure would support a go ahead on sunday hunting.
Triss, did I buy a model 37A 20 Gauge from you recently off of GP?
