Until there is ACCOUNTABILITY BY ALL user groups.....including FNs
There will be NO SUSTAINABILITY
So just how can ANY other groups work with 1 that has ZERO ACCOUNTABILITY and answers to no one.
Good luck to any of these organizations.
With all due respect, I'm well enough versed in FN treaties and rights to ask for thoughts and comments on such from an organization/individual that claims to have my interests at heart, when I am, as a resident hunter in BC, being asked to consider joining and/or supporting that organization.
I understand and you definitely have the right to ask
Just remember any hunting org that takes a stance that many hunters would like to hear publicly on an open forum is shooting them selves in the foot when it comes to building relationships to have influence involving govt. F ing politics suck
I'm all in favor of keeping dangerous weapons out of the hands of fools. Let's start with keyboards and forums. - F L Wright
Try and be kind to everyone but fear no one. - Ourea
All I know is, I want an Org that represents Resident Hunters at the table, to deal with big issues like lack of funding.
Getting the Ministry to go back to science and do things like Pred culls if the science is there.
Work with the FN and such to make sure we have a model that we can all work around and protect each others rights etc.
What I don't want is an Org that strats to take stances on, "we support the bait ban" or "we support 4 pt only" stand.
Basically just trying to Regulate other hunters.
We have enough of that already with dismal results.
We just need Hunter Representation that supports all facets, all types of hunting and who main mandate is to make sure others at the table,
especially the government, are living up to their side of the deal.
Which has been the biggest problem for years!
Feel bad for Rob U, poor guy is trying to create a advocacy group to stand up for hunters and just gets shiet on here? With this mindset hunters will be doomed, easy to say they can fall in a barrel of tittays and come out sucking their thumb!
I like drinking beer and whiskey, shooting guns, jetboating, love a nice rack and a tight line, I am simply a sophisticated redneck...
Where is Rob, i see he has been online since many here have asked questions, maybe buying more ducks to put in line!!
Avatar is for all the conspiracy theory nut bars, for all the crow they have to eat when everything implodes
I've never heard of someone who isn't vaccinated getting polio
Trump will win big time in 2020
Why is it that rednecks from Alberta can't get enough of men in dresses, they simply lose their shit
One thing BC hunters need to start realizing is in a lot of provinces and states there is more active hunting orgs then you find in BC. This does not dilute the voice of hunters but instead creates more people representing hunting in the prov/state. They don’t all need to be representing the same styles of hunting or views.
The “There can only be one” attitude regarding hunting orgs in BC has a very negative effect limiting your number of speakers and leaving aspects of hunting poorly represented. It also leaves BC hunters very open to individual pushing personal agendas. The odds of a hunting org coming along that represents all hunters is truly a pipe dream
Support who you feel represents your views is the best way to go. I already seen BC screw up attacking SCI limiting its growth. They have done more world wide for hunting then any org in BC yet it was attacked similar to how this new org is now
Might be time to start re thinking the one org to represent all mentality
