I don't think anyone has posted anything to support your straw man.

Can you just not admit you don't know much about the rural poor in Ontario.
...I mean your posts already show it, so may as well 'fess up.

Well in the STICKS you MUST have a vehicle or two.I can walk 300 yards and reach 5 major chain stores.
In the sticks you probably need to plough that car or preferably pickup out of your driveway,which you maintain in the summer.
Housing is cheaper in the sticks if you can find steady employment and and thereby qualify for a mortgage.
Labour is cheaper in the sticks until they find out your from TORANTO then it doubles.LOL

Then there is the added costs,chain saws,wood choppers,ATV,s ,trailers,gardening equipment..........

The rural poor up my way have access to welfare,assisted housing and food banks just like in Toronto.They have thrift store shopping for clothes also the same.They know if they poach a DEER they are poaching a Deer,period.The reasons to excuse it are
simply not there up in my rural neck of the woods.

That's just because everyone in the "sticks" know that anybody from Tronna are STP's (stupid Toronto people):fish:.

Food for thought... Some folks would rather take matters into their own hands and fend for themselves rather than go looking for handouts. Some folks would rather face the possibility of jail time and stay in the town/house they were born and raised in rather than move to the GTA for the possibility of a minimum wage job.

Sure just do not steal OUR deer because you do not want to move. If you do poach, expect to be punished to the fullest extent of the law. Do not excuse law breaking just because they do not live in a city.

All anyone needs to know is, no matter where you live, that if you shoot a deer out of season or not following the regulations , you are a poacher ( = criminal) and you should be treated and punished as such. To live up north and have no job, is not, and never should be an excuse for law breaking.

So a guy in "anywhere" Ontario illegally shoots a few deer over the course of his lifetime to get his family over the rough spots and it allows him to stay in the house he was born and raised in rather than move to the city and collect welfare. This affects you how?
There's probably more right to that than allowing me to shoot 3 deer in a season (even though I have lots of meat) just because I can afford the extra tags.

Change the words from a few deer, into a few moose and see how that plays out. They are not HIS deer or moose , they are OUR moose and he is stealing them from US. He is a poacher.
