When John spoke, it was with authority and as a leader ... he was not going to be intimidated!

John Cummins, BC Conservative Party leader

Yesterday evening (March 18^th) John Cummins, leader of the BC Conservative Party, was in Kamloops to speak to the Annual General Meeting of the Wild Sheep Society of BC.

At that meeting Mr. Cummins announced that a new BC Conservative government would create a dedicated anti-poaching squad of Conservation Officers. He said:

“Poachers and those who do not follow hunting rules threaten... our wildlife stocks and a BC Conservative government would give conservation officers the resources to go after poachers,” said Cummins.

“Just as the police have dedicated anti-gang task forces to deal with nothing but organized crime, this is a dedicated team that would do nothing but track and stop poachers. Poachers are organized, so the conservation service needs to be as well.

“The anti-poaching squad would be mobile and be able to travel around the province to hunt poachers of all types of wildlife, from bears, to eagles, to fish

As many of you know, I have been down at the coast the past 10 or 12 days so I was unable to be there, to see how things went, but there are few British Columbian's, especially those who are hunters, that can abide the unlawful, and often times wasteful, activities of poachers.

I was also delighted, this morning, to hear a report back on the “Meet and Greet” that was held with John earlier in the afternoon, yesterday in Kamloops.
