Better idea?? Here's the right one: If you want to stop the problem you describe, the answer isn't to charge everyone more for a tag. That's typical lefty, gun-control sort of thinking. The answer is to quadruple the fines for actually hunting with another person's tag, confiscate trucks, impose jail time. Basically PUNISH THE GUILTY, NOT THE INNOCENT.
And unless we raise additional money some how how are we going to get the enforcement to do so? Its already determined that many are against paying anything more so how could this ever work? And i'm in agreement, big dollars could be brought in from illegal activities but we as Alberta residents wanting to improve things better be willing to help alleviate the costs of it through increased tag cost or what ever!!!
