Dear Susan:
SUBJECT: ERO #019-4868 - Amendment to Ontario Regulation 316/07 under the Provincial Parks and Conservation Reserves Act, 2006 to create Alfred Bog Provincial Park

The Ontario Federation of Anglers and Hunters (OFAH) is Ontario’s largest, non-profit, fish and wildlife conservation-based organization, representing 100,000 members, subscribers and supporters, and 725 member clubs. We have reviewed the proposed amendments to create Alfred Bog Provincial Park and are fully supportive.

In particular, we are pleased to see explicit recognition of the importance of regulated hunting in the area. By amending Ontario Regulation 663/98 (Area Descriptions) under the Fish and Wildlife Conservation Act, hunters in the area can be confident that their hunting heritage is being recognized and respected.
Yours in Conservation,

Mark Ryckman
Manager of Policy
