SCI Canada is urging the Government of New Brunswick to preserve access to hunting and fishing opportunities for responsible sportsmen and women, rather than limiting participation to Canadian residents only.
Visiting hunters and anglers have long been part of New Brunswick’s outdoor traditions, supporting local outfitters, small businesses, rural communities and conservation efforts.
We believe decisions surrounding hunting and fishing access should be guided by sound wildlife management, conservation science and sustainable practices. Policies should support wildlife, strengthen communities and preserve New Brunswick’s reputation as a welcoming destination for responsible outdoor recreation.
SCI Canada welcomes continued dialogue with provincial leaders and remains committed to working toward a balanced, evidence-based approach that benefits conservation and the communities that depend on it.
