I mentioned that using wildlife management as a reconciliation tool is not appropriate. It will only draw more of what little resources are put into wildlife management. It's a distraction. We're all in this together so lets not play identity politics and get on with the work at hand.
Any effort for sustainable wildlife recovery requires 2 key things.
1) Funding
2) Political will
If I read one more comment on "REGULATION" changes as the answer, we are doomed.
We need to make more wildlife.
We need a sustainable funding model.
We need Gov to recognize how critical the situation is.
We need them to get behind and commit to making wildlife a priority in this province.
A crossbow regulation this, shorter season that.... will do absolutely FA in wildlife recovery.

It would be difficult to write a pamphlet of less substance than that in "Together for Wildlife". It appeared to be mostly geared toward making us understand the importance of the "Indigenous community" and how we should look at this as an opportunity to further reconciliation. I saw little or nothing about trying to recover wildlife populations or habitat. GD

My response to this suggested it was important to document this "Together for Wildlife" came about because hunters demanded it. We made it an election issue. We are the ones holding Government responsible to deliver. Documents of this nature south of the border use words like, hunting, hunter, hunt. It seems the NDP saw this 'wildlife plan' as a logical merger to Indigenous reconciliation. The two files are distinct. For me, we need words that suggest the target is 'huntable' populations. Not just sustainable.
They sure don't give much room for feedback. They want to hear what we have to say but not too much. Anyone else only able to put 2-4 sentences before being cut off or is it just me?
