Sorry Jay, but you don't have a clue. You make it sound like the Elk are in a schoolyard or something. Elk Island Park might be fenced, but it is huge. Might as well say that hunting on private property, or on crown land is also "canned" hunting. Or that fishing in a lake is unsportsmanlike because it is bordered by a shoreline.
So what is your solution to the overpopulation problem? I would really like to know. I'm betting you want to put Wolves, Bears and Cougars in there and let mother nature sort them out.
"Canned" hunt? People with your attitude are part of the problem, not part of the solution.
EDIT... Hunters have a hard time harvesting an Elk or Deer in Blackfoot, which border's Elk Island, despite all it's trails.
