2026 Fisheries Management " Proposals " for SOG & SVI

[searun]

DFO has fallen for the ENGO trap again. They are being played IMO. The ENGO playbook is pretty simple, yet sinister. The overarching agenda is to create an environment where ENGO's can take steps to kill the recreational fishery - death by thousand cuts, so people don't notice the noose coming around their necks. Don't take my word on it, these objectives are posted on their websites.

Call me crazy, but here's how I see their play book being used......

First, create a "crisis".
Second, market the crisis as "fact" on every platform.
Third, line up allies who will benefit from either gaining research funding or eliminating fishery competition, attack any expert or organization that is seen as non-sympathetic
Forth, use all the tools such as Emergency SARA Orders to create "incremental crisis moments" that forces government to jump and be seen to be doing something, rather than taking the time to complete careful analysis and due diligence. Keep your opposition busy chasing issues - wear them down
Fifth, employ a series of incremental crisis moments repeatedly over a long period of time to choke the life out of the recreational fishery until it simply fails

First they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out—because I was not a socialist.

Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak out—because I was not a trade unionist.

Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—because I was not a Jew.

Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me.
