Cariboo chilcotin imminent loss of hunting access ?

[Wild one]

Hate to say it but under present government we are screwed on this issue

[WhiteTailAB]

Wow. I was thinking of hunting in region 5 near quesnel with my GFs Opa but idk if I even want to bother with it.

[Bugle M In]

Yup, ^^^^stayed tuned in!

I'm afraid racism is going to increase to levels never before seen in this country, thanks to all those involved who thought they were doing the right thing, now you have put Native people in a real bad place. Native friends I have been talking to are really concerned, as well they should be, and when I hear some guys talk I just put my head in my hands

I agree with this. Funny thing is, is that the extra entitlements or whatever it’s called won’t be any benefit to 90% of FN’s. I don’t have any figures to back that up, but I have a fairly good perspective on what happens.

So what does that leave for the white population?
Sooner or later we will have no place to go because the whole province/country will belong to the privileged 2-2.5%

Not just "white" population. Non Native population.

I've been saying for a few years eventually things are going to be so restrictive that people just start ignoring the rules. First they will hunt in "closed" areas because there is no real conservation related reason not to. Then they will think, well, I'm already breaking one law, what other laws do I not agree with and choose to follow or not?

It's a slippery slope.

Several threads all tie together, the common theme in the air is "dishonesty" Confidential meetings, flying under the radar,
no media coverage etc.

I implore you guys to go to the BC treaty commission site http://www.bctreaty.ca/ have a look around and see for yourself.


The average Native has no idea whats going on, and I doubt very, very, much that any at the top had any idea that we would be at the point we are today.
The UN are playing a massive role in this entire process, I would like to ask our political masters one simple question,
why did you accept UNDRIP in its entirety?....I think I know why.

Our Fathers and Grandfathers fought for this country, they fought to maintain "freedoms" that we have enjoyed thus far, those freedoms are going to cease to exist, those freedoms are fake.

Couldn't agree more. People need to realize and understand the part the UN is playing in, and affecting, not just our lives, but the lives of our children and the policies and ideology of every single part of our "governance".

It is going to much worse before it get better.


Good post!

Bigger question is, what does that leave for the BC Native population? Indians aren't a monolithic group nor do they see themselves as that. I can hardly believe the Natives in the Chilcotin will want any Natives, American or not, coming into their territory, (for lack of a better or more accurate term) and killing their access to moose and deer. You just might find yourself side by side a Native from Sugar Cane protesting this court decision.

Yes you are right about that, however majority of hunters, other than native, is white people.

Well it might just be like the good old days when the different Indian tribes start beating the war drums.
