Crown forests have long been a gateway for anglers and hunters to spread out across the province and enjoy a diversity of world-class opportunities, that in turn support the economic and social wellbeing of rural and northern communities.
The return on investment from fishing and hunting alone is worth it, but the broad multi-use public, community, and industry benefits make it all the more significant," said OFAH Executive Director Matt DeMille.
