I call BS as well because it is illegal for First Nations or Metis to sell game and or body parts and trophy hunting is not supported under the Metis harvesting. More fear mongering.....

Many other races that flocked to Canada, came because their own country inflicted hardships, or worse an invading country did. The ones that were invaded I guarentee you weren't offered what Canada's natives got, or else they might have stayed put too!!!


Do they have to turn in their heads, or other body parts to F&W??? or is it their property after harvest??? and what is the definition of trophy, is it a buck, or are they only allowed to shoot does???

the cases im referring to were under the IMHA. one of the guys in the court case and his kid took 2 400 ish bull elk at suffield within weeks of the initial announcement of the deal. the kid took a 180 mule buck just after christmas of the first year of the IMHA as well....among other antlered game. the other guy i mentioned killed 4 bighorn rams. i dont know what constitutes a trophy in anyone elses eyes...but 2 of them were awful small by nearly anyones standards....the other two were not full curls.

this is my problem with it as well,as ISB stated trophy animals were dropping like flies all over the province,like some of the old timers say you can't eat horns,so i guess these guys were'nt hungry and were just hunting for trophy's,this is what i don't agree with.
