Technically true, but since there's never anyone there to enforce any rules or laws, it's really a free-for-all.
Yes, the APRA "operates" the public range, but in a very hands-off fashion. My understanding is it really only exists because that was the deal with the gov't in exchange for them having a members-only range on public land.
I'd suggest maybe the RCMP should start hanging around, but someone on here said they claim it's the Parks dept's problem. So it basically seems like everyone is well aware of the problem, but they're all just going to pass the buck until there's a serious incident... then the solution will presumably be to just shut it down.
That being said, I've yet to see any real safety issues on the range itself in the 3 times I've been there. So if you can get past the garbage and the yahoos shooting off-site, it's usable.
