"Nagata provided Postmedia News with a computer screen grab of an (Safari Club International) SCI Facebook posting, since removed, that reads: “NDP have vowed to end the grizzly hunt in B.C. SCI chapters from Canada and the U.S.A. banded together donating $60,000. Together working with GOABC to prevent the NDP from getting elected and ending the hunt. SCI stands first for hunters.” The posting included a photo of Safari Club International providing the guide-outfitters with a symbolic $60,000 “grizzly-bear” cheque dated this month."

Of course that $60,000 was either used to fund anti-NDP ads directly, or found its way into the BC Liberal Party's campaign funds, although the latter would be illegal, and would come under review in the current RCMP investigation of the BC Liberal Party donation scandal.

The grizzly hunt is absolutely archaic.

It keeps tourists away from B.C.

Any returns from the hunt is blood money.

That's why the NDP has promised to keep the grizzly hunt.

So have the Liberals.

Weaver's a bit vague but he says he will allow it too.

Puts you in a conundrum, Geo.

lol um the ndp said what ?


The BC NDP Opposition has pledged to stop the practice of grizzly bear trophy hunting if it wins the upcoming provincial election.

Of the 56 grizzly bear populations in BC, nine are classified as threatened. Environmental Reporting BC says since 1976, an average of 297 grizzly bears are legally killed by hunters each year. A 2012 report by the Ministry of Forests, Lands and Natural Resource Operations estimated there were around 15,000 grizzly bears in the province.




the choice is clear

bclibs = alt -facts


ndp is committed to ending the shamefull grizzly trophy hunt .

I was going to vote Green, but after Maryjane pointing out that Christy supports the hunt, I might vote Liberal. Anyone who doesn't like hunting is an idiot and a hypocrite (unless vegetarian).

Wrong. NDP said they will allow grizzly hunting if the hunter removes the meat from the bush and not just the hide. So says the Greens, too. The only party pledging to ban the hunt in any area is the Liberals who have said they will ban the hunt in the Great Bear Rainforest because of the potential for conflict between hunting and the bear viewing industry.
