In Sask we buy a habitat certificate for a fund to buy lands to allow more hunting opportunities and save habitat. This is mandatory and in addition to all other licences. Cost is $10.79
Tell me what you think about this.
Gov't sets up a program, we'll call it Land owner cooperation fund. Hunters pay $10.00 into this fund in addition to all other licences.
When the land owner grants access to the hunter the land owner copies the hunters license number down and at the end of the season turns it into the gov't and is paid a certain amount.
That way the landowner that is doing everything he can to mitigate wild life damage gets some help, giving hunters access is a benefit to the hunter and land owner.
Those landowners not granting access are left out in the cold.
