For efficiency purposes,  people can write one letter, then address it individually to the ministers and their MLAs, etc. If email is used, it is a good idea to also send a hard copy via postal mail to follow-up as they are less easily dismissed. For letter writing tips, please click HERE.

  •  Please also consider writing Dave Kay and Matt Besko - AB Wildlife
           Management.

Recall, in June 2016, from the Rocky Mountain Outlook: "Dave Kay, commercial wildlife and priority species specialist with Alberta Parks and Environment, said the province is looking at ways to regulate against the use of wolf bounties by municipalities and hunting and trapping groups.“It might be legal, but socially it’s really not that acceptable and we certainly don’t promote them,” said Kay. “We’ve had some discussions internally about how we can regulate against the use of bounties on wolves.”

Please write and request a follow up on these statements in regards to the bounty programs in Alberta. It would also be wise to thank him for taking this position and ask for a timeline when the public can expect bounties to be banned.
