Let bears wipe out the game, keep non-treaty hunters out of the hills/mountains and make it a more-equal only park in the name of reconciliation. Eventually prohibit licensed gun ownership “if you can’t hunt you don’t need guns”

Take note - wildlife is provincial jurisdiction - this is occurring with a “conservative” majority government, and was INITIATED by a conservative majority government, lead by Ralph. Shows you the undercurrent pretty clearly.

You should review your notes on why the Grizzly hunt was suspended.

Forestry said there was about 2-3000 bears. Study said under 1000, which coincidentally :rolleye2: was the federal limit for endangered species. Hunt ended to “avoid federal interference” aka Ralph and the cons old boys club running scared.



It’s the old death-by-a-thousand-cuts strategy. Large predators are the most emotion evoking target for non-hunters, and therefore easiest hunts to assault. Then it’s their food source. Now it “reconciliation” “traditional territory” “treaty rights”



End goal is to end hunting by all non-treaty subjects

I saw Karsten Heuer on the news tonight, bitching about approval of the Three Sisters development in Canmore, where he lives. He's the push behind the introduction of bison into Banff national park. Physician Heal Thyself. :lol:

Just a side note - Yikes, that organization (CASH) is quite the piece of work. They are out there, and they walk among us (they profess that they hang out with hunters/hunting organizations, ostensibly to collect dirt on them).
