    Part of me wonders if they, a strong indigenous community, may actually be able to do a better job than our current wildlife management strategy (bogged down by politics). The Tahltan leader has said that he wants to work with non-indigenous people to manage game in a sustainable way, which includes hunting grizzlys. I suggest people listen to the Hunter Conservationist Podcast podcast on this issue. I felt really hopeful after hearing him speak about their desire to manage game within their territory. I feel much better about what they are saying then our politicians

    Grizzlies would be much easier to manage than wolves.
    If they want to manage wolves in a large roadless landscape, then there are only two methods that would be effective....poison and aerial gunning. One of those methods is expensive.

    Let's see what happens when a social justice warrior has to choose between being anti hunting and denying first nations proposals. To their own people the SJW's will either be pro hunting or racist.

    As long as their management program is not focused on excluding other BC residents, I am sure they would do a better job than our government, as they are not beholden to urban voters

    You gotta prove what doesn’t work before you move to plan B, C or D.

    I'm for pro resident hunter rights as the next person in this community. But I still recognize the harm that was done to folks that were here first.
    Safety and Prosperity. I'm not blind to the facts that FN and other races experienced racism and exclusion in this Country. There were laws against people owning land and other unfair practices. I wouldn't want to experience what they went through. Just talk to older generation of people of minority groups. They often have stories of how they were spat on, threatened, bullied etc.

    Just in case people forget their high school social studies:

    Our own goverment and corporations have not had the greatest track record in the past regarding the enviroment which affected hunting and fishing (Housing Development, overfishing, mining and Forestry to name a few.
    Hunters profess to know whats best because we're out there and value the resource. Why do we put down other allies we have against those who would ban hunting altogether? They had thousands of years of living with the land in a much less disruptive way than we do now.

    I second listening to the podcast, i am not sure where i sit on it all but it was refreshing listening to someone talk as apposed to a dam press release.
