Something you said wasn't a wise choice and something you wouldn't do.

So rather than change the law to what is being proposed and cutting off game bird hunting opportunities we add game bird hunting to the existing law and limit the need for permission to big game hunting.

That way there would be no change for game bird hunters and big game hunters would need permission to hunt the adjacent land before shooting an animal on the road allowance. So if he had prior permission, that would eliminate the chances of an animal being shot and not retrieved because of lack of permission.
Makes perfect sense to Talking moose..... I am not one to advocate even less big game hunting opportunitys, but this rings truth and eliminates possible headaches.
