EDIT: this is not good. I'm sorry I posted this I was trying to help preserve our heritage and the use of lead bullets. Please don't fill out the survey like I did. It is a big mess. Thank you for all who contributed and clarified the issue.
Apologies

ORIGINAL POST:

This is taken from the BCWF newsletter. It appears somebody wants to ban all lead bullets in BC. they appear to be giving hunters a chance to respond by giving recipients of the BCWF newsletter a couple weeks to fill out a survey. After that they will be able to say they consulted hunters and didn't hear anything....

i filleded it out and made my case for lead bullets for big and small game hunting. I left 6 bullets in the woods this year. Hardly an environmental concern compared to the habitat destruction from forestry, oil and gas, mining and dam building.

Im not against any of the aforementioned industries per se, but their environmental impact is millions of times worse than some hunters bullets left in the woods.

NEW HUNTING AND ANGLING SURVEYS Environment and Climate Change Canada has launched hunting and angling surveys to gather information on current uses of lead ammunition and fishing sinkers and jigs in Canada. As lead is associated with risks to human health and the environment, the federal government wants to obtain accurate and up-to-date data so that science-based policy can be developed to address lead exposure. The BCWF Recreational Sports Shooting Committee and the BCWF Fisheries Committee have reviewed the studies’ purpose and are recommending members should participate to make sure the perspectives of hunters and anglers are captured by the study. Please take the surveys before January 31, 2017 to be eligible for the gift card draw.
