Resolution

WHEREAS Saskatchewan has some of the best hunting in North America;

WHEREAS this is widely recognized by outfitters and guided hunts are charged out at a premium;

WHEREAS guided hunts would be impossible without land to hunt on;

WHEREAS private land is currently available to outfitters to use by law free of charge with landowner permission;

BE IT RESOLVED that APAS request the Province of Saskatchewan to make legislative changes to enable landowners to collect a royalty from for-profit outfitters for the use of private land to conduct business on, and that individual, non-guided hunters would remain exempt from these changes.
