National Indigenous Day BCWF Reconciliation Dialogue

[Rob Chipman]

A lot of people are curious and concerned about what reconciliation will look like when it comes to hunting, angling, access and conservation.

This Zoom conversation is open to BCWF members and will be a sort of a town hall conversation between BCWF President Chuck Zuckerman and Indigenous Relations consultant Solomon Reece.

I'm pretty sure we'll do more than one of these sorts of Zoom conversations because this is complex stuff and a lot of people will have lots of questions.

We'd like a big turnout and we'd like lots of questions. We'd like the questions as early as possible because, given that this is complex stuff, somewhat new and constantly evolving we want to be prepared with good answers and good follow up questions.
