Hunters, landowners weigh in on rural trespassing debate
Hunters and landowners are weighing in on the debate over possible changes to trespassing laws in Saskatchewan.
The provincial ministry of justice began seeking input on ways to address trespassing laws through an online questionnaire this fall.
Darryl Crabbe, Executive Director of the Saskatchewan Wildlife Federation, has been involved in discussions with the province about how to find a compromise to address serious issues raised by rural landowners while still encouraging responsible hunting.
As a rural-based organization with 98 per cent of members living in rural areas, Crabbe said the wildlife federation is certainly aware of the legitimate concerns raised by landowners and is supporting the need to address those issues.
