I'm wondering if we are being played by the government with this announcement. They have said that they will pattern this new model after the Fresh Water Fisheries Society. When a lake is low on fish stocks they bring more from their hatchery, are we going to set up moose, elk or deer hatcheries? They have not offered to allow any say in land use issues, they have only offered up wildlife management without any say in where they live. Is this more like Translink, all of the problems with no control or say in how to fix the problems?
That is precisely the point. Nowhere in the announcement did they offer any say of control over forestry, mining, habitat or land use. We are supposed to just believe it will. This actually came from one of the people on the inside of MOE but could not say anything himself and wanted the word out. As for finally committing all of the licence funds to wildlife, great.
