Mine is that there are two big issues that cause bad blood...
1) APOS is the worst industry ambassador imaginable due to the seeming "turn-a-blind-eye" approach to outfitters/guides who break the law.
2) Albertans should not have to apply for tags that non-residents can purchase through an outfitter.
Beyond that, outfitters are just regular Albertans trying to make a living no different than any of us.
Tork, you seem to carry the torch for your peers. Care to give us your thoughts on both the above points?

The general response to your first point, is usually that it is just a few crooked members of APOS causing the problem. But given that APOS elects their executive, if it is only a few crooked members, it would be easy to vote them out and make changes. And if a member can't be bothered to go to a meeting and vote on the executive, to get rid of the problem, then that member, is a part of the problem.
