interesting wording in the following. They definitely differentiate between the Wildland and Provincial parks, with the provincial park's future hunting opportunities being most vague at this time. First time i have seen "restrictions" in any public documents.
my take is, smoke em while you got em.
How and where will hunting be permitted in the Castle parks?
Like all Wildland Provincial Parks, hunting will continue to be permitted in the Castle Wildland Provincial Park under current regulations. These same regulations will also apply to Castle Provincial Park in the short term, including the 2017 hunting season.
In the longer term, a review will be undertaken to determine wildlife management priorities in the Castle Provincial Park. This review will likely lead to a tailored plan (and may include a wildlife management unit with specific allocations) to meet conservation objectives in the park. While some restrictions may be introduced, hunting will remain an important tool for managing wildlife populations.
