This is an interesting story. (http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/british-columbia/story/2012/04/04/bc-fishing-ranch-dispute.html)
Fishermen are trying to raise money to sue the American owner of Canada's largest working ranch to access a lake and Crown lands.
The issue seems to be that because the original lake was altered and stocked, the B.C. government now sees it as privately-owned. I would like to know how big the lake was initially, and when it was altered.
Certainly, this would be a complicated one for the courts to sort out.
What's your take on it?
