Being that this particular issue could potentially effect virtually every trapper in Alberta, was this discussed with the membership and a resolution drafted reflecting the desires of Alberta trappers? If not, the system is broken IMO.

Well the ATA gets a whack of taxpayer cash every year in their MOU with AEP to administer and deliver trapper education in Alberta. I guess they're going to get a bit busier.
