Indian band declares Ashnola valley protected

[whitlers]

The statement doesn't mention hunting or fishing at all. If access is maintained, is this even a bad thing?

You are foolish to think this will not effect backcountry use.

Hunters/ Guide outfitters	With the IPCA declaration, we are confirming the current moratorium on non-sməlqmíx hunting in the area. We will enforce sməlqmíx / syilx protocol with our neighbouring nations. We are protecting moose and ungulates by protecting winter range, migration corridors, lambing areas. For example, ceremonial burning can assist with restoration of ungulate habitat. E.g., area around Crater is starting to in-grow / sicknesses can occur when animals hemmed in in one place.

Well that settles that question.

Anybody got any solutions?

All I can think of right now is showing up in numbers and removing infrastructure which I would be willing to take part in.

I would have to sit and think about it more for other on the ground solutions, i'm not talking about goofy **** like contacting mla's.

Something that would deal with it or see actual results from, anybody got anything?

I will be hunting it weather they say I can hunt it or not. I’ve had enough. If all the areas circled in red end up closed I’ll still hunt it and I would like to see someone stop me.

I can honestly say my temper is not good, I could see myself doing something very stupid if I spend money to go somewhere I want to go and am told I can't at some toll booth/roadblock. This could push to the boiling/point of no return one day
