Backcountry Hunters and Anglers

[markathome]

BriarPatch - the Yellowstone to Yukon initiative has almost zero relevance when weighted against the major issue in BC: LACK of funding and POLICY from the government and inadequate science (THAT BACKS THE POLICY):

Full stop.

Properly fund wildlife and habitat at the government level using public coffers AND separately fund scientists so they can effectively do their jobs and we've solved at least 30% of the problem... the rest is an unknown. Sadly.

Again - this particular forum has exhausted me.

Every single BHA member I've met to date - I would invite into my home for a meal.

Just joined BHA. Looking forward to getting involved.

As resident hunters we should be joining together. Either BCountry Hunters and or BCWildSheep Society. These outfits appear to be going in the right direction to represent us. I still support the BCWF but will be clear im not impressed with its lack of support for BC hunters in recent years. No clout. To much catering to organizations that are against us. IMO.

Finally got around to signing up. One more member for region 1!

You got it right! Put up or shut up.

sign up and then send an email saying you want to volunteer. If there’s no table in PG you may be asked to help start one! Talk about getting in on the ground floor!

I just don't see conservation as the #1 concern for hunters..Where would a guy send his money if he wanted to fund a continued fight against Canadian gun control measures and hunting closures/restrictions due to favoring first immigrant hunting opportunity and launch a campaign to sway the voting majorities general distaste for the idea of killing animals?

I'm a member. Have been for a couple of years.

I joined up. @Greenthumbed, do you know if BCHA offers group insurance for members like BCWF does? I need coverage for waterfowl in region 2.
