Quinte Fishing

Thinking and reading, researching and always trying to keep an open mind (even for an old guy...or gal).....such is the life of ODG.

Here is a twist to accomodate a few factions (there are a number of reasons why this will not work....but I must play with this one); I have other personal assignments, but found this entertaining.....

Regarding Aboriginal Harvest (simple but containable regulatory method for any area...let alone the whole country...lol; that part is silly)
____________________________________________________________
1) Season: throughout the entire calendar year for species present during the time of said treaty's were introduced, or Canadian confederation (1867).
2) Harvest Area- defined as within a bands treaty area and limited to card carrying members of that band; this can be transferred, but must be supported by band endorced documentation and acceptance; harvest without documentation support by the local band will be deemed an offence covered a fine, confiscation of all related equipment and assets used while incurring or supporting said actions; all money to be given to the local band to support local fish and wildlife projects
3) Harvest Methods- A) traditional harvest methods, and materials (eg. handmade- spear, hand net, bow and arrow, etc.) from a given area at the time of treaty will be allowed a harvest amount equal to the amount the harvest bearer may carry by oneself, without assistance to an appropriate storage area on a daily basis; this includes a possecian equal to 3 times what the harvester can carry themselves, in order to assist family needs for the calender year.
B) Harvest amounts using equipment and techniques not introduced at the time a treaty or Canadian confederation was introduced (eg. semi automatic rifle, forged hooks on a set line and including gill nets not made out of local natural/non-processed materials) will be limited to sporting methods and limits employed by the provincial or territory area, and the provincial or territory limits employed by said area. Daily limits will be enforced with a possecian limit not to exceed 3 times the provincial or territory amount

Simple ideas from a simple old man....or woman. This could be introduced in select areas of acceptance and on the surface, looks interesting. Just having a whale of a time......with abstract resource allocation notions

I have consciously left out breech of harvest options..... this area is so much fun....it is puzzling why some daring young up and coming judge or lawyer has not tried to bring something like this forth.....just food for the imagination.....
