Heck of a deal eh...$60 a year, only $5 a month to have access to all the fishing and hunting opportunities the province has to offer. We sure are lucky...and no I'm not being sarcastic.Quote:

The funds go into a fish and wildlife special purpose account, which invests more than $65 million a year in fish and wildlife management."

Why do we game managers (hunters) have to pay a fee to manage our Ontario resources, shouldn't the government be paying us to do that? Why is it the other way around? It's so unfair us hunters (game managers) get panelized for managing our provinces wildlife.
More to the point, MNRF has no small game strategy or small game management plan, yet is soaking me for a small game licence. Given that everyone has a small game licence, this ought to be the best managed resource in the hunting portfolio ... yet it is not being managed at all.
