Outfitters allocations are 100% issued by WMU. The percentage of the resident/Outfitter split is calculated by groups of WMUs.
In the recent moose allocation cuts there was no juggling Outfitters to different WMUs. Some got deer allocations or bear allocations as compensation, some got nothing.
I’m all for conservation, and if cuts need to be made to ensure the future of a species then so be it. But please don’t think it’s just a free for all of compensation and a golden ticket for Outfitters all across Alberta as they do what they please.
