Thank You for the…

Thank You for the opportunity to express my thoughts:

-There was a good effort put forth communication the actions for the new Moose plan, and to have stake holders involved.
However it was quite surprising, Southern Ontario got 2 locations, and Northern Ontario got 5 locations for public meeting.
Why-If it is known , about 50% of Ontario moose hunters are from South?
This is now behind us-can not offer solution, however many were not given opportunities to go to these meetings.

-There is no clear rationale to allocate one extra point to Northern Ontario hunters!
Why all the others from Ontario are treated differently? Southerners spend lot more money into Tourist industry while going up moose hunting(one of the goals of hunting as such is-to contribute to the Economy).It is well known, very few, if any Northern Licensed hunter needs to hunt for other then a great pastime!
No difference then the Southern hunters do!
So-why preference?
Just because they are there, and the moose is there too?
Just because Southerners have deer-they do not?(some still have deer too). Travel down, it is easy, and easy to get deer tags too-after all ,Southerners do opposite for moose hunt?
Solution-TREAT all Ontarians EQUALLY for points.

-Allowing long term points to be carried over to the unsuccessful hunters is very unfair!
It does penalize all other hunters willing to take "worst" opportunities in remote locations, or where moose is hard to get by, in order to get tag and moose hunt. The ones waiting for good luck, and not willing to move now will have ALL the perks from the new system-likely condemning the past successful ones to keep sucking up bad locations or not go hunting altogether?
Not getting moose tag for 5-10 years is not just sheer bad luck or bad system , it is also huge unwillingness from their part!
Most unsuccessful hunters knew what they were getting into when applying into hard to get tag areas-why prefer them over the contributors ?
Solution-have a CLEAN slate, start with 2021-so EVERYONE knows the rules , and EVERYONE can play EQUALLY by them. Random draw for few years in the HIGH DEMAND WMU-s, then everything will settle where trends will go.

-Why penalize successful hunters WHOM got a tag in surplus tag system(by eliminating their points)?This is a new approach, has no past precedent in Ontario moose hunt, and again penalizes the willing and contributing.
Solution-disregard surplus tags from preference point removal process. They will be eliminated anyway soon.

There are still other unknown or hard to understand implications of the new proposal, but this is what my comments are as of now.
Thank You for Your time.
