And I do know someone who would gladly pay $250k to hunt sheep every few years.
If you guys want to treat wildlife as a commodity, something to be sold to the highest bidder, why are you bothering with public draws?
I'm sure for 10-15k Dunham's will gladly put you onto an awesome sheep of some sort.
And it's guaranteed!
Why waste your time and money amongst the commoners?
The funny thing is that some of the usual posters that advocate higher pricing be used to eliminate tags for other people, can't stand the fact that leaseholders treat leased land like their own.

Who do you know that would pay 250k to hunt sheep in alberta?
I call bs
Because if they did, they would just buy the ministers tag
You know the tags where one goes to the highest bidder and one gets raffled off
Draws like 438 sheep should be $50
If you can’t afford the $50 to enter, you won’t even be able to afford a new pair of mitts to wear. Never mind being able to afford to drive to the mine for 10 days even if you lived in Hinton.
Draws are too cheap
Up to 4 people can split the massive $4 fee
If you think the opportunity to hunt animals as a resident is only worth $1 to you
