    Yes it does, but the nonresidents pay dearly for the opportunity to hunt here. They in fact are buying each animal from the BC public.

    No. They're buying it from the GO who picks them up at the airport, takes their money and delivers them back to the airport in most cases.
    its gonna take a life time to hunt and fish all this

    The problem is, we don't want to sell, so in fact its being stolen from us.

    All I can say, a waist of my time reading this, rolling eyes. I can't wait till guiding season!!! Best frikin job iv ever had! Good money and great tips, there's only been one or two hunts that the guiding cheque hasn't matched my millwright cheque, or close to it (mind you I only work as much as I have to) non the less, iv never gone hungry after a guiding season, and not to mention I get to meet some pretty unbelievable people. And the beauty country I get to explore!!, on someone else's dollar, and get paid for it!! can't beat that for a job can you?

    X a bunch, not all guides are ass hats!

    It is interesting, I am looking at resident vs nonresident statistics in all of the comparable states. Without a doubt residents here have the greatest hunting opportunities in the world hands down. It is not even close.

    How many of you have killed a wolf in the last 10 years, maybe if you got off your couch and went wolf hunting and wrote letters to your MLA's about controlling the over harvest of cows and wasted meat by the first nations there would be no LEH for moose anywhere in the province.

    Buddy guides for an outfitter out of the caribou/chilcoot $150 a day, he is guide, cook and baby sitter all in one. The only way he makes any money is the tip from rich clients. News is now the outfit is for sale as he has more quota and can sell for a profit.

    More correct would be they are buying it from the outfitter, with a small fee going to BC. The majority of the purchase price of a hunt does not go to BC, obviously.
    Knowledgeable shooters agree- The 375 Ruger is the NEW KING of all 375 caliber cartridges. ALL HAIL THE NEW KING!
