I am not a lawyer or a police officer nor a judge so I do not know what constitutes an assault but In my opinion I do not see an assault but that is up to the courts to decide. By your ignorant response I come to the conclusion you are in favour of this type of illegal activity and can only imagine what special interest group you represent! Within my group of hunting friends we all have said that if we were to come across that exact situation we would do exactly the same thing he did, I am really getting sick and tired of all this BS this province is for all to enjoy!

“I prefer the saddle to the streetcar and star sprinkled sky to a roof, the obscure and difficult trail, leading into the unknown, to any paved highway, and the deep peace of the wild to the discontent bred by cities…it is enough that I am surrounded by beauty.”

This thread has lock written all over it so I will get a comment in while I can.
Chutineshooter, your comments come with an attitude of anger and frustration.
I think I understand why.
I take no offence regardless of my perception and personal views.
If FN wants to control natural resources where is the line in the sand?
Who has the right to control roads....build roadblocks.....where does it end?
Hiways....bridges.....airports.....Gov?
If someone was to set up a rd check going into Walmart and had a self perceived "right" to refuse access to certain users and could use whatever means with immunity for public safety......slippery slope.
All I care is about wildlife, it's future and sustainability.
Creating conflict and polarizing stakeholders just drives the wedge deeper.
Point....
I had a friend that had a shotgun pointed to his head trying to go to his cabin up Apex ski resort by a FN member at a FN rd check a number of yrs ago.
RCMP watched.
Took pictures and did nothing.
Where's the line?

i think he made BC hunters look pretty darn good actually,he proved that there are still people with principles who won't be intimidated or be bullied by group of scofflaw malcontents. He has shown more testicular fortitude than our government,law inforcement or the judiciary. He committed no crime, he was unlawfully prevented from pursuing his activities which were and are fully legal. I for one will make a donation to help Mick out defending himself against these ridiculous charges.
