It's about time.
Having our access enshrined by law is the only way to guarantee our share of the resource and stop the politics.
Donated and shared.

I have to say, I think its pretty clear we just don't deserve good things. We have over 140000 adult licenses in BC, and only 73 donations with no pulse in 3 days (in what looked like for a few days could have been a decent campaign). There are bigger people/organizations that have supported, but the message being spread clearly isn't strong enough or persistent enough, or people just don't care enough to help make a difference. Not caring equals we lose our rights and this is why the sports fishing community is always taking a back seat. At this point, it is what it is.

I, and many others have said for years that APATHY is the greatest single weapon working against us.
To the point that now DFO (and others) actually rely on that.
This represents simply another case thereof...
Sad & Frustrating!

Just getting used to being ignored. No rights for recreational fishers. But just maybe FN's will be listened to they want many of the same things but for a variety of different reasons, some of which cross over FOR recreational fishers.

I don't want to hear any complaining for next year if people don't wanna chip in. What a joke.

Don't forget about us out west most of us will be more than happy to donate I will this evening when I get in from workI'm not sure how many are BC residents. Correct me if I'm wrong but the 2022 DFO report of sold tidal licences was 350,000 ish.
Edit:
This is easier

i found that even tho we have 300k plus salt water licence sales, that active community is about a thousand people.

Just made my donation. The number of people donating didn't change to 78 from 77 so maybe the counter isn't working right. Seeing a 15% tip auto loaded was surprising. Yes it's adjustable down to zero but it could have just been easily set at zero to start. This tipping thing is out of control. How is the work and service different from processing a $5 donation (.75 cents) and a $500 donation ($75). A flat charge service fee for all donations might be a better approach.

Just donated. We need a lot more exposure and donations so share and please pass this around on all our social media!

that 300K includes every license written for lodge and guide guests, so you can imagine how many of those people actively follow the politics of our fishery. You would think that the guides in Renfrew would be hitting every guest up for a donation but that does not seem the case.
