Manitoba Game Protection Bill Expands Reserves and Limits
The Manitoba legislature introduces a radical change to game protection, widening reserves to nine and creating five new preserves. The bill cuts bag limits for chicken and partridge, caps daily duck harvests, bans pelicans and cormorants, and removes prairie chicken shooting from automobiles. It also shortens possession time and empowers the lieutenant governor to appoint two game commissioners as part of a broader wildlife protection policy.
