Some of your points in the new plan may work, however I strongly oppose 2 of them:

I strongly oppose limiting the hunting group size to 10. I have been hunting with my extended family for a while. Our family has been making this a cultural tradition for years. We camp outdoors in the Fall with our family (husbands, wives, children, grandparents). Most apply for a tag and are part of the hunt, but we also use this time to teach our children about respecting the bush, nature and the wildlife. We teach the children not to destroy nature. The older adults teach the youth the safety aspects of hunting. Every year we also pick up garbage left behind by others. Camping in the fall and enjoying the outdoors in part of our tradition. Limiting the size of the group will prevent us from doing that. It will prevent part of the family from going out. How do we choose who is in the group? This will ultimately force women, youth and elders out of the group and they would be most likely to give up their spot.

I strongly oppose the maximum distance to be apart at only 3 km. I think that could be potentially dangerous as it may force hunters to hunt too close to each other and risk a disastrous accidental shooting.

And a general comment I have is that the future evaluation of the proposed plan will not be accurate as you are changing so many variables at once. How will you know which variable did or did not result in a change in the harvest?
