Subject: ERO 025-0781: Proposals to reduce regulatory and administrative burden, and enable

increased economic opportunities for licensed trappers and fur dealers

The Ontario Federation of Anglers and Hunters Membership (OFAH Membership) is Ontario’s largest,
non-profit, fish and wildlife conservation-based organization, representing 100,000 members,
subscribers and supporters, and 675 member clubs. We have reviewed 025-0781: Proposals to
reduce regulatory and administrative burden, and enable increased economic opportunities for
licensed trappers and fur dealers and are supportive of the implementation of all four changes:
1. Expand business opportunities for licensed fur dealers
2. Reduce reporting burden for licensed fur dealers
3. Burden reduction for trappers dispatching lawfully trapped furbearers after dark
4. Enable actions for protecting infrastructure on Crown land by trappers
