Default Something for Harper to Consider

President Bush Issues Executive Order Supporting Hunting and Conservation

On August 16, 2007, President George W. Bush signed an important Executive Order promoting the importance of hunting and wildlife conservation and requiring Federal agencies to expand and enhance "hunting opportunities and the management of game species and their habitat." The E.O. directs Federal agencies to consider the impact of Federal activities on hunting and to work with State and Tribal governments, and non-governmental organizations, to advance hunting opportunities and game animal conservation. The E.O. also requires the Federal agencies to "respect private property rights and State management authority over wildlife resources." The E.O. is available at http://www.whitehouse.gov/news/relea.../20070817.html .

How did old Georgie boy manage to slip that one past the granola munchers? I understand it is to manage/improve wildlife and habitat. I would have thought these groups would have freaked when there was something signed to improve hunting opportunities.

Good one on George.

If your current MP is willing to listen or bring up issues. This may be a good one to forward onto thier office.

I can't see PM Harper making a move like that with a minority. He has bigger fights to plan for. With a majority in Parliment, it could be a bit of an early term gimmie is phrased correctly. Lets hope.......
