Good news on Game Enforcement

[waldedw]

Carmine MAGLIONE was found guilty of two counts of unlawful trafficking of wildlife (moose and elk), guiding for reward without a licence, and providing guiding services to a non-resident alien without an Outfitter-guide permit. MAGLIONE was given an $11,000 fine, a 15 year Judicial Order in which he is required to report all hunting activity including any wildlife he comes into possession of and 6 year automatic recreational hunting licence suspension.

Can we assume that this was the indigenous person that was providing these services under which the other people were taking illegal game ????? if so does anyone believe that he will comply with this 15 year judicial order and report all hunting activity ?? and what good is a 6 year recreational hunting licence suspension ( which he doesn't need anyway if he is indigenous ) am I missing something here, if so someone please clarify for me.

You picked the guy with an entirely Italian name as indigenous?

If he is who I think he is, he’s Métis from the Ashmont area not sure if he is originally from there?

If it is who I believe it is, Maglione is Carmine Jr. His father Carmine Sr. was a Chief Park Ranger in central Alberta in the early 80's. Junior come off as an "entitled" person, who got into trouble with the law on more than one occasion. Father seemed to back him no matter what. Not surprised to see his name come up in one of these court cases - just wondered what took so long.

the grand total of 63000 seems high but the individual fines are rather small..imo


where does that money go?

Fines sound great, the bigger the better, but sometimes they're like getting blood out of a stone unfortunately .

Given that you only need 1/16 native blood to claim indigenous status it's hard to tell by just looking at the name ?? it's even harder when looking at peoples last names that are Metis and now have the same status as indigenous.

I picked the guy that appeared to have been found guilty of the charges that one would associated with the leader of this mob, maybe he just had indigenous females with harvest cards riding around with him as there appears to be a couple names in there that could be tied to this scenario.

It's hard to say, that's why I was asking if anyone knew more facts.
