Re: Tom Fletcher’s column titled ‘The NDP’s grizzly trophy hunt ban aims at cities,’ published in the Houston Today’s Aug. 30 issue.

I just wanted to congratulate Tom Fletcher on his article about the NDP banning the grizzly hunt in B.C. It’s not often we see a journalist who is willing to go against the masses and pen the truth.

I have earned my living guiding hunters, fishermen, and trappers all over northern B.C. and Yukon for more than 30 years. The grizzly population is without question at an all-time high, and certainly needs to be managed.

Sincerely,
