    Re: Equal rights for all.

    Post numbers 10, 12, 14 are correct. This is all a big deal to us hunters but getting the political and social will of the Canadian population is another story. The time and resources that would be required to be spent amending the Constitution would come at the cost of not wrestling more contemporary issues and would detract financial Resources from competing interests like education, medical system, Etc. I'm not holding my breath. Nice thought though. Many many people share your frustration but your efforts will amount to nothing so I wouldn't give up time eating dessert with the wife in order to do this if I were you.

    X2! It's about time that all Canadians are treated equal and subject to the same laws. The current preferential treatment will lead to revolt. Thanks

    You are right. We need stoned and gay Indians on our side!

    I think the awareness could be increased by not targeting hunters only. Isn't hunting just a portion of access to public resources including wildlife, fish and land? This FB Group could be named: Equal Rights For Canadian Outdoor Enthusiasts

    This is about the most accurate post here so far. The populace doesn't give a shyte about anyones hunting opportunities, face it, many people, maybe most dont like hunting to begin with and they think only the indians should be hunting to begin with.
    I'm not so sure creating an awareness campain is the way to go. Making more game is, by enhancing habitat, blah, etc.

    Before Canada gives the country away to foreigners they will square up with the indians.

    Blunt, true and so very sad, but, probably an accurate depiction of the near future.........
