I forgot.
I do know a number of folks that actually use quads and side by sides for productive activities.
Farmers, ranchers and acreage owners that ride them to check fence lines and move cattle (my Dad and many others), haul and move water, check on their crops, do maintenance work and move stuff around their property ( not crown land).
There are also a few other industries/businesses that utilize them for work purposes but they are not running super powerful machines with big ass, paddle tires that leave ruts, tear up muskeg and surrounding habitat, destroy Crown land and private property.
They don't cut fences or run over crops, tear down signs, or rip through rivers and streams just for fun.
Designated areas for OHV users is fine and eventually they will be banned from all other crown land. That is what it is coming down the line whether all the "responsible" OHV users like it or not.
If the few spoil it for the many, the consequences will be what they will be.
We can agree to disagree.
Rant over.
