Okanagan Park
« on: November 17, 2017, 01:43:53 PM »

The proposed land grab in the South Okanagan by Parks Canada is just that. It will alienate current landowners and recreational users, while providing a Private Hunting Preserve for a select few of "special status".

Although the vast majority of locals are opposed, the feds (and local FN's) are attempting to simply push them out of the way. Please Folks, take a moment and let the government know we cannot support such actions on our watch!!

Nope. As Parks is National, it is OPEN for anyone in Canada actually.

Fill your boots!

Just part of the liberal agenda as part of reconciliation. You knew that voting for the liberals would result in the federal government being far more supportive towards FN agendas.

Harper government decimated DFO and habitat bioliogist. Liberals were just the lesser of the two evils I suppose.

We’re getting to the point we’re a lot of the nature resources will be controlled by FN. Maybe it’s their right to being the first people of Canada.

One thing tho is for sure expect this to continue under a liberal government.
