Are you good with more and more tags being like 437 and if your not in it already you will never ever draw a tag? Yep Albertas draw system is awesome. Sure right now you can get a few tags every few years. That isnt going to last long. But that seems to be what many want. Guys say well move areas and apply for lower priority tags. Well just remember all of alberta tags were once low priority. The first moose tag I got in my zone I hunt too 4yrs. The one I got this year took 11. And guys are fooling themselves if they think that wont happen where they hunt. Supply and demand will make the current draw system a once in a lifetime system. Without removing applicants that will never change!!

There it is, isn't it. You want to remove opportunity for some to increase your opportunity. That is the definition of greedy. IF the population increases to the point that hunting becomes a one animal in a lifetime situation, making sure hunters are not allowed into the pool is not the solution.
The king of England wanted to make sure he had all the hunting opportunity
he needed.
We here in Canada made sure that access is equal for all.
