Peace Region Moose and Northern Cariboo

[Walking Buffalo]

BCWF and concerned people.

The B.C. government does not own the wildlife.
Wildlife is held in TRUST by the Crown, managed by the Provinces, FOR ALL PEOPLE.
ALL PEOPLE of Canada legally own ALL THE WILDLIFE!

Negotiation is not going to quell this illegal action to exclude most of THE PEOPLE from being able to consume wildlife.

This illegal action will only be squashed in court.

File an injunction.
Get this into the court system.

Hey all,
just came across something on BCWF’s social media. Looks like the BCNDP are considering trading away 50% of resident hunter moose allocation and all caribou in some areas of region 7b. This seems like a closed door deal between FN and the govt to allow resource extraction to continue after a recent court case blocked the projects from proceeding. I don’t claim to be an expert, but if this is in any way true why is this not a big deal on here? Am I missing something? Anyways. Please go to BCWF’s website and read about it, there is a video from JZ laying it all out.

I saw this yesterday. There's links and whatnot on BCWF for letter writing to your MLA. However I don't have much confidence that resident hunters' opinion will be considered (or valued) by our current government.
Here's a link to BCWF https://bcwf.bc.ca/peace-region-hunt...id=-2035349830

Interesting. First Nations oppose resource extraction because it harms there territory but they will accept that in exchange for an unlimited and an regulated hunting opportunity. Unlimited resource extraction for unlimited wildlife harvest is the deal struck? That will end well.

Yeah I’m not sure if the details are finalized or not. But I am sure if we don’t speak up we are screwed. Maybe we already are, but I’m not going to stay silent. On a side note, I do some work around govt engagement with the WSSBC in region 2 specifically , we are making some headway, but are sorely lacking in people who are willing to take the time to go talk to their MLA’s and voice concerns. If anyone here living in region 2 would like some help meeting with their MLA’s please private message me. I’d love to chat and give you some help based on my experiences so far.
Mitch.

And so the first domino falls.

I fully expect this to happen. This current government has already demonstrated that it doesn't give a rats ass about hunters. We're talking about a government that enacted legislation that makes it more difficult to conduct PAL/CORE training because you can no longer bring a firearm into a classroom for instructional purposes.

​ Please watch this important message from Jesse Zeman on a development that affects all resident hunters in British Columbia. Our press release follows, and there is information below that on how you can take action

Am I correct in understanding that what Jesse is saying, is that as a result of the Blueberry Band court ruling last year that said the govt infringed on their rights, the govt just made a deal with the Blueberry FN that allows the Govt to continue with the resource extraction in their territory in exchange for not allowing hunters/anglers/campers/hikers etc on the to recreate anymore?

It sounds to me like the beginning of the end for non-indigenous sportsmen.

I think this is the 3rd thread on the same topic .. maybe a mod can merge them.
