Next Step for allocation fight

[Blowback]

Those percentages (90/10, 75/25) are per a BCWF resolution voted on and passed unanimously at the AGM to be our position should the 2007 policy not be implemented as promised.

I believe we should be moving on to "next steps". The BCWF AGM resolution is the fallback position of the BCWF known to represent resident hunters. It must be known that Thomson's new allocation splits are to be legislated. Resident hunters cannot let this happen. What we as resident hunters need to do is push the percentages (90/10, 75/25) to be legislated. The 2007 policy is in effect null and void. The spirt and intent has been discarded and ignored by the Ministry by their actions and dealings with GOBC. We need to ralley all residents, hunters and non-hunters to lobby the government to have (90/10, 75/25) percentages legislated. If will take media coverage, letters, meetings, protests and rallies on the legislature to accomplish this.
This is not a hard issue to rally behind if you keep it simple and compare percentages in outher jusistictions to what is being proposed by the commercial trophy harvest industry.

Agreed Blowback. There is a grass roots movement in progress. Some of the action being taken has been seen on this forum. There is more in the works. If you are interested in doing more, PM me.

Wilco Jesse. We are directing traffic here, but granted it is an extra step. Will encourage others that are posting (that are not on this site) to do the same as you instructed.

I agree with changing the splits too 90/10 and 75/25. The 2007 agreement was more than generous to the GOABC and it's members. They should have been content with what they had. We have the momentum now, when will we get this groundswell of support again in the future. This will be in the collective conscienciousness of the public soon. I'm sure the above numbers that blowback suggested, will seem very generous indeed when compared to most North American juristictions. Let's get 90/10 and 75/25 passed into law. Peddle to the floor guys.
