over 65 no more free fishing

lol . Maybe they should lower the age and to under 50 and charge you triple to offset the increase to seniors on a fixed budget .

I am paid based on an annual salary, which in my world = a fixed income. For the last 7 years it has neither gone up or down, not even cost of living allowance increases... Can I be exempt too?

I believe the MNR are there to protect the wild life and are funded by our taxes and not just the user fees for fishing and hunting.
Tell me when was the last time they stocked Perch, Pickerel , Crappie, Catfish, or Silver Bass, the list can go on and on. In the great lakes, or any lake.
They don't.

far from making the sunshine list

I think they should just increase the fishing licence and leave the seniors alone.

It's $30.00, that's nothing. With the baby boomers becoming cheap, I want to become cheap. I don't want to pay for their expensive healthcare costs that will cost my generation. It's bad enough we have to clean up their mess with little pay to afford it. Thanks Baby Boomers and Gen Xer's for for this mess.

I think a few people on here need to read the report at link called :

FISH AND WILDLIFE SPECIAL PURPOSE ACCOUNT
FOR FISCAL YEAR 2010/11

It's a report on how much money is involved and where it gets spent etc....an eye opener if you think all they should be doing is stocking your lake .

It actually sounds like ( if you read it) that the problem is with the younger generations not getting into fishing, not buying licences and not generating revenue for the MNR....so they've had to ask the old folks to start kicking in.
