Default I know better than to get into this but here goes.

Two governments made an agreement in the late 1800s Her Majesty's government in London and the Natives who lived here in what was to become Alberta. The Crown offered some rights in exchange for virtually all of Alberta, and one of those rights was unrestricted hunting forever.

Now one side is unhappy with the deal (the new people) so do you want to go back to the beginning and start again or have the non natives forego all hunting to protect the game animals.

Rights mean just that, you can't just take them from people but you might be able to negotiate some. What do you propose to trade for Native Hunting and Fishing rights?
