I in turn don't understand that type of short sighted thinking.

But you have the right to your opinion.
In my mind I view it as a fundraiser and nothing more not a hunting opportunity is likely why we have a different opinion

Differences of opinion are gonna happen but don't think there is any need for all the name calling. Doesn't help anyone's argument.

Default Foreign Convention and Tour incentive Program - Hunting

For those who feel the Outfitting Industry is contributing to the Alberta or Canadian economy in a big way should give this read. My Gawd , its a Tax Haven if I ever saw one. What a way to "provide for your family"!
No wonder APOS is so secretive and touchy.
