TBow Posted May 5, 2010 Report Share Posted May 5, 2010 Just curious if any of you belong to a sportsman organization that represents the interests of hunters and fishermen? Oops! Actually I should have said "sportperson" or "fisherpersons"! Got'ta be politically correct! Anyway, I belong to a local fish & game club that is affiliated with the Ontario Federation of Anglers & Hunters. For one, it provides a broader representation of outdoorpersons' interests with regards to hunting and fishing regulations. And two, I've also benefited by being a member of the OFAH as with their membership also comes liability insurance, which has gotten me permission to hunt on property solely becasue I could provide proof of insurance. I think it's important as hunters and fisherpersons that we have a united and strong voice with our legislatures to ensure that our interests are represented. We may not always agree with the direction that some of these organizations' programs take, but I believe united we stand, divided, the only outdoor activity we'd be allowed to do is to cut the grass!
