God knows I'm no lawyer but clearly the Heritage Hunting and Fishing Act of 2002 states
Right to hunt and fish
1. (1) A person has a right to hunt and fish in accordance with the law. 2002, c. 10, s. 1 (1).
Same
(2) The reference to the law in subsection (1) includes the Fish and Wildlife Conservation Act, 1997, the Fisheries Act (Canada), the Migratory Birds Convention Act, 1994 (Canada) and the regulations made under those Acts. 2002, c. 10, s. 1 (2).
Essa Township enforces the fee under land use and not any fisheries law because they do not have juristiction. We are constantly bullied by big government and others because no one can afford the legal fees to sue or cease and desist.
It's clearly a law that discriminates against fisherman and therefore shouldn't stand up in court.
Of coarse no one will ever fight it because the legal fees would just be too much.
