What is the current status of the permit to accompany program? Has this program been restricted or cancelled?
I read about all kinds ridiculous regulation proposals that do nothing to enhance wildlife numbers and am wondering.

I have let more 6 point bull elk walk than most hunters have ever seen in their entire life. Stop shooting 5 point bulls and leaving them to rot. Identify the target before squeezing the trigger.

When one considers the low ungulate numbers and the predator problems in BC, a restrction or curtailment would be a sensible way to reduce harvest without affecting resident hunter opportunity. Especially in 7-50 and region 4 for elk.

I have Weaver bases on my go to elk gun. I am not looking for a permt to accompany.
I am simply asking if consideration has been given to cancelling or curtailing the program?
seems to me to be a great way to reduce harvest without affecting BC resident opportunty - especially in areas of low elk numbers and high predation such as 7-50 or 4-1 thru 100.

Very few use the program and permit will not be approved if it’s deemed a species or species in a location that area is deemed too low of a population. So no bighorn, lots of caribou, and some MT goat areas will not be approved
Don’t worry that hosted hunter will also pay a large trophy fee beyond all the cost of non res tags and license so it generated way more $ than if you took that animal
I agree. Thanks for the input. With regards to the tag,license, and trophy fees on a per animal basis: Yes, a successful accompanied hunter does drop a few more shekels into the black hole for sure.
But the lowly resident hunter who lives in BC and hunts regularly spends a fortune on fuel, booze, chew, motor oil, antifreeze, tires, and speeding fines and the tax and fee portion of those expenditures also goes into the black hole.

The permit to accompany are not automatic. I have gotten a permit to host my brother in law for Vancouver Island Spring Bear, but was denied a permit for Reg 4 mule deer. I inquired and was told the poulations of GOS mule deer the MU's I wanted to hunt were low and thats why my permit was denied.
