When this mess first began in Alberta they weren't much. I'm not sure you even had to have 1/16 First Nations background. I know the number of card-carrying Metis in the province nearly doubled when the hunting was thrown wide open. I'm sure they were just all rediscovering their heritage though. Sorry, I have all the respect in the world with those with ties to their heritage but have a hard time with those jumping on a gravy train of unregulated hunting because it's their "right" to kill animals outside of normal seasons.
