    Another fake anti hunting poll

    Insights West have come up with yet another fake poll seeking to ban g bear hunting.

    They claim that even 58% of hunters are in favour of banning the g bear hunt.

    I say that's total utter bullsh*t. What do you all think?

    Re: Another fake anti hunting poll

    Ambush started a hunters' poll on here a couple of years ago. Approximately 96% of hunters on HBC supported the grizzly hunt.


    We just another poll more recently on a BC Hunting Fishjng page and the results were almost identical.

    Insights is garbage. Pay them enough and you can have any results that you want.

    One of the supporters/underwriters of the article is Lush Cosmetics.

    "West conducted in partnership with Lush Cosmetics"

    Got to respect their opinions because they are experts on GB's while they paint in eyebrows.
    Nuts.

    All you that voted the NDP in.......welcome to social management.
    Pure insanity.

    And how did they determine that ONLY hunters voted?

    They said that 11% of the population in BC describe themselves as hunters. Let's see 4,631,000 people equals 463,100 hunters? But they only sold 97,000 hunting licenses last year? Bad article, with bad "facts".

    great minds think alike. I emailed Insights West with the same question.

    My sources in the polling industry tell me Insights use almost exclusively online surveys. It's a lot easier to lie to a computer than a human on a phone.

    Do me a favour. For fun we created our own poll. It may not be scientific but that's kind of the point. Please visit and vote:

    ^^^ I'm thinking of contacting them and asking how much for a poll that indicates support for hunting
