Province is completely against handgun hunting.

I'd enjoy a hunting season and no restricion on how I choose to harvest.

I think everyone should be allowed a 22 pistol/revolver to collect a few grouse etc., while hunting larger game with the rifle.

I think my life is as worthy of protecting as a geologist or a trappers and if I find myself in the bush I should not end up in jail for carrying life insurance on the hip.

Why can't I use a Thompson Condender chambered in a big bore to take down big game? The logical next step for some of us who chose to shoot long range with flat shooting calibers is to put meat in the pot.

If you can't getrdun with anything but a rifle then go hunt with your rifle/bow etc., but don't impose your limitations on the rest of us.
