The new fishing limit proposal is highly unfair.

The new fishing limits target residents who are not the problem! The problem is overfishing in the culture designations that have no fish limits at all. The culture designations are a huge population proportion in places like Kenora in Northwestern Ontario. If the fish population are in decline, put limits on everyone across the board no matter their culture. It is only fair. After all, it is the fish population that is in crisis, isn’t it?!

The new proposal does away with the designation between residents and non-residents. Again this is not fair at all. Why punish the residents for non-resident behavior? Residents, like myself, who decided to make Kenora, Ontario our home pay taxes to support the city of Kenora, why should we get punished for making this our home? We want to enjoy where we live and fish and boat and enjoy our lakes.

If these new fishing limits are installed, DECREASE the cost of the fishing license for the residents of Kenora. It is only fair.
