    election results vs grizzly hunt ban?

    so If we find out later this week that the greens align with the NDP to form government it sounds like both parties agree that they would try to ban grizzly hunting.. how real of a possibility is this?

    Who said they would ban Grizzly hunting? My understanding that some meat retention rules will be added?

    Nothing like playing politics with the scientific management of wildlife and its habitat....
    He's anything but a hunter.
    More like another, Rain Coast Sociopath Fraud. Living off the prevails of his chronic lies, like the rest of them...

    It's an issue, because these sociopath environmentalist's, will dilute the facts.
    To the point you or Joe public, won't know them any more..
    They count on that big time..

    Interesting concept that the State of Missouri had many many moons ago.

    The voters passed a sales tax of 1/8 of 1% and that money would go to fund the Missouri Department of Conservation. A non-political entity that did not rely on the current flavor of political parties for their funding or management. What happened? The state's wildlife returned with a vengeance and they started exporting breed stock to other states since they had a surplus. Too many "cityfolk" do not get it and I bet today this would not pass.

    Took the big BC loop up to the Yukon via the west side and back down the east side into the rockies and back to Vancouver last fall . . . wow, was surprised at the amount of critters we saw just along the highway.

    Cheers, VFX

    Well said, I agree completely.
    When in doubt, just pin it.

    The problem is from what I've heard, it would be take the meat but you would have to leave the hide. They haven't been very forthcoming about this part.

    Reminds me of the fishing industry. If you haven't heard a rumour by noon, start one.
