Congratz on your Canadian Resident Draw. As a member of the Forces, and recruited from Saskatchewan I get to put in as a Saskatchewan Resident to hunt there. So this year, I'll be heading out a couple times for the draws I won (Elk, Mulie Does) in addition to chasing down a whitetail.
As a non resident with no family pool, I once again did not get a draw. Chances are essentially 1 in ten for non-family pool applicants. I really do not have a problem with that and wonder about nonresidents hunting in B.C. Should we follow the same ideal?
