As for the fn's have rights to hunt with no reporting i think that is wrong how can you manage a resource with out knowing all of what is taken is mind boggling, from what i understand the moose only came to be in the areas around 100 years ago so why does one user group get total access when the other group was also here at that time, but this is another whole issue. Habitat restoration would be a start and more govt involvement in compiling data, when the beetle kill started it was right in our back door at the cabin, anti's didnt want any logging and look where that got us. Then after extensive logging not a winter moose survey for 10 years, talked to the co numerous about not seeing the numbers of moose and called the ministry multiple times and nothing was done, the last thing i want is no moose in the bush or no fish in the ocean. Also the comment you made in a previous post about the lower mainlanders not doing anything and coming to your area to shoot all the moose, we are all Canadians and access should be the same no matter where you live, you don't hear me bitching about all the people coming to the island to fish, its a mute point. As for me coming to meetings, you know where i live so going to meetings is tough to do, i am up to my neck in meetings dealing with all the bs going on about closing down most of the coast for a total finfish closure. As for Jesse i am no expert, but i see a guy trying and an organization trying, now it seems you, Gcreek and my new best friend Dana seem to have it all worked out so why not take positions in the BCWF and fix it, i do hear through the grapevine about this new Wildlife Stewardship, what is it, why is it not out there and being kept kinda secret and some of the people who have been ripping me a new ass are involved, can you share intel to the res hunters or is it a big secret. I know you have issue with Jesse especially in regards to the land grazing lease dealings but is not being audited a good thing could prove your case.
