We have to learn from the Indigenous People and stand up when our rights are being trampled. Protests and media coverage are the only methods that seem to get any results. Emails are simple to ignore. I bet there is literally thousands of people that have no idea what these clowns are up to and how it is going to affect them, even if these are not waters they fish on a regular basis.
The lower Red Deer and tributaries are just starting to recover from the last flooding event but will now be subject to over fishing. All the smaller streams from Sundre to Dickson and south will be devastated by over angling.
Not to worry, when this becomes apparent they will close these waters as well and central Alberta anglers can all move south and repeat the process.
In the USA there is hundreds of water sheds with a hundred more times the pressure that are flourishing under proper management. This management plan is an absolute joke.
