LETTER'S TO THE EDITOR DESERVES THE ATTENTION. YUKON HUNTERS ARE PISSED

YUKON HUNTERS ARE PISSED OFF SEE LETTERS TO EDITOR

9/7/20263 min read

Thanks for exposing this abuse of Quebec hunters about what they are doing in our territory's most beautiful part of Canada and ruining it for everyone that hunts for food.

I am a long-time Yukon resident and hunter, and I am absolutely disgusted by what appears to be illegal hunting being allowed to continue in one of the most beautiful parts of our territory.

If ordinary hunters were caught doing this, there would be immediate enforcement, inspections, and penalties. Instead, it looks like some people may be getting a pass because of tourism, politics, or a cover-up. That is unacceptable.

Conservation Officers need to do their job. If there is a violation, it should be dealt with immediately and properly, not brushed off with warnings or “education” instead of real fines. Yukon hunters are constantly watched, stopped, and harassed, yet serious concerns like this seem to be ignored.

As a taxpayer, hunter, and Yukon resident, I will not stay silent about selective enforcement or corruption. The public deserves answers, not excuses. If the law applies to everyone, then enforce it on everyone.

Yukontario keep up the good work.

I will withhold my name because of possible retaliations.

Thank you for your opinion and here at yukontario we will keep your personal info out. We understand exactly what you mean unfortunately in todays society you are destroyed if you go against the grain. We are asking the same questions.

Where are the Conservation Officers?

Dear editor

This is just a comment if it's ok. Maybe we should be asking does the Yukon employees union negotiating a new contract might involve C.O"s not doing there job?

This Bullshit Tony Barriere a Non Resident hunter now has a grizzly bear hunting license this year after his video of him shooting a moose in a full speed boat. WTF is going on in Yukon as a resident hunter this is bullshit. There's a scam with a lot of people involved here I see corruption and possibly payoff this need to be investigated. where the hell is Hon. Wade Istchenko the minister of environment.

Just looked at all the video's and YouTube about all these people profiting off Yukon. When did this become legal? As a hunter this cannot be legal and to see that it has been going on since all the publicity is unbelievable. When I got out and sit quietly and here a truck door slam and "hello" we all know exactly what it is. hunt's over. I see what going on and I'm thinking the same as the others someone is bought off. I do see it on Facebook and all those assholes in Dawson with those monster trucks pretending there hunting it's a commercial hunt for sure. So if this is legal I got a new business Why because the money and free sponsors' equipment for free is the bonus if Yukon is that corrupted I want in. What a shame !

Absolutely this is criminal I can see that some of the videos are being removed and no longer available there goes the evidence. I remember hunting with my wife in the middle of no wear and a helicopter landing to check our licenses. I definitely see the frustration. Yukon has been corrupt for a long time starting with some of the special draws. Time for the outfitters be investigated also hearing a lot of stories. Keep ratting them out yukontario it's the only real news we got

Well there you go our Yukon conservation officer wasting our money. I've been keeping up with the illegal hunt up in Dawson area and they shot a moose and now cant find it . the hunt that should have never happened. Look I'm an average blue collar worker /hunter I was reading the regs it's clear special guide cant profit. When your hunt is financed and sponsored and in the special guide regulations not being followed or profiting .I'm so pissed off that I will never let this go.

Editor’s note:
We hear your frustration. I posted the rack man post to clarify what you’re upset about. We shared as much evidence of this alleged illegal hunt as we could, and it appears conservation officers ignored it and allowed a special guide license holder to abuse the law to take down a big game animal. This is deeply concerning.

Editor’s note:
We just received a message suggesting this may all be bullshit regarding the moose down, and that another moose showed up angry. It appears this may have been staged as a show for the people who paid for his Patreon channel, intended to make money. We are still checking all resources to confirm . For now, we’ll limit our opinion on our end.
