Out Of resident Hunters are given 5000 draws from the locals

Yeah I can't find a link to sign anything. I don't hunt but if anyone is going to it should be locals.

I believe it is the second link moreforce thanks
I also believe locals should get to eat , many people province wide hope to get draws for moose or elk, last time I had to wait 5 years to get a chance and a moose will last me two years in my freezer , and have only ever had 1 elk draw in my life and most go 20 years without a chance .
If this goes through I nor many may never get a draw again.
Ok the guides bring money to the province but they are mostly big game hunters just there for the thrill ,
It's my livelihood though as well as many others .
Thanks everyone for listening

Ok the guides bring money to the province...

It would be interesting to see how much they actually bring in.

Resident (BC) hunters spend quite bit gearing up for those once (or twice) in a lifetime draws.
They're the ones travelling around the province staying in hotels and the small town huting stores and eating in restaurants for the pre-season scouting, buying quads, gas, that new bigger bore rifle for moose/elk, gps, packs, etc...

As somebody just getting into it, and enjoying my first time having a freezer full of hormone free/organic/lean/ethically raised meat, I'm wondering if I chose a pretty crappy time to start.

Just a heads up for any hunters out there (or any non-hunters interested in attending), there is an allocation meeting happening locally, it would be great for any of you who it affects to come out and show some support:
