I recall when you could hunt caribou in Alberta, and also Sage grouse. Shutting down the hunting 'take' didn't do squat. Without controlling habitat damage caused by voracious industry, populations have continued to tumble for both.
I fear the same for the Pembina fisheries. Shutting down fishing is only a symbolic, hollow gesture. There's no stomach for anything that could be interpreted as impeding industry.
