  • Changes to the Public Lands
    ALBERTA WILDERNESS ARTICLE ASSOCIATION Wild Lands Advocate 11(6): 17 - 18, December 2003 CHANGES TO THE PUBLIC LANDS ACT – DEALING WITH OFFENDERS AND LETTING GAME-FARMED BISON LOOSE ON PUBLIC LANDS By Shirley Bray, WLA Editor and Vivian Pharis, AWA Director Bill 49, Public Lands Amendment Act, 2003 was introduced November 18, 2003 by Denis Ducharme, MLA for Bonnyville-Cold Lake on behalf of Mike Cardinal, Minister of Sustainable Resource Development. A government announcement says that “these changes will strengthen and clarify the government’s role as the land manager for public lands.” These amendments will allow Alberta to “deal swiftly and effectively with instances of non-compliance on public lands, and allow some bison grazing on public land.” Non-Compliance The amendments dealing with non-compliance “are intended to further discourage people from travelling on closed roads, destroying gates or preventing access to those who need to lawfully access public lands.” They will “clarify existing offences on public land, outline a police officer’s authority to remove people from public land and enable the Minister to take enforcement action if people travel on a road that has been closed to the public.” AWA has long lobbied for a legislative mechanism for closing roads on public lands in order to protect wildlife habitat, reduce poaching and allow regeneration of some roads. However, we also see a danger in such legislation, if it is applied to unfairly exclude the public, including First Nations peoples, from lawful access to public lands. We would like to see clarification as to when and where this legislation is to apply.
