Big Meeting Tonight
There is a meeting tonight to fight the proposed new Hamilton Antihunting bylaw. They want to make it a law that:
- every hunter has an original permission form signed for each day that they are allowed to hunt at each location
- all property that is used for hunting must be fully signed warning that hunting is allowed on the property.
Few farmers will put up signs like this and there aren't that many that will even allow others to post these signs around their property. The other bad thing about the bylaw is that it encompasses all of the "NEW" city of Hamilton. This stretches for 10's of miles out from the city proper and is some of the best local deer hunting around. It makes no difference if you're hunting with a bow or pellet gun the law still applies.
