Changes to the 2019 – 2020 Algonquin Park Harvest Area

Pembroke, ON – For many years, the annual Algonquins of Ontario harvest of moose, deer and elk has been managed pursuant to management plans developed by the Algonquin Negotiation Representatives (ANRs). These management plans establish the process of issuing tags to eligible Algonquin harvesters, the species that can be harvested, the season during which harvesting shall occur and the Harvest Area within which harvesting may take place. They also provide for reporting and monitoring of harvesting activities. These management plans have resulted in responsible and well-managed Algonquin harvesting for many years.

In the past, Algonquin harvesting of moose and deer as well as the harvesting of other species of game normally taken for food in Algonquin Park has been restricted to the area within Wildlife Management Unit (WMU) 51 and to the east of Shirley Lake Road.

For the 2019-2020 harvest season, the Algonquins of Ontario have decided that this area is now expanded to include that portion of Algonquin Park that lies within WMU 51, both east and west of Shirley Lake Road, north of the Hwy 60 Corridor Development Zone and within the Algonquin of Ontario Settlement Area.

This decision has been taken after a great deal of consideration and is the result of anticipated increased harvesting by members of the Métis Nation of Ontario pursuant to arrangements made with the government of Ontario that have been challenged in court by the Algonquins of Ontario. In recent years moose populations in certain Wildlife Management Units have declined significantly, coinciding with increased harvesting by self-identified Métis harvesters. The ANRs have attempted to obtain information from the Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry regarding the extent of harvesting by these self-identified Métis but with very limited success.

The Algonquins of Ontario have determined that the only responsible course of action to respond to both the threat of increased harvesting and the decline of existing moose populations is to permit harvesting by eligible Algonquin harvesters in that portion of Algonquin Park that has not been harvested previously.

This decision applies to only those Algonquins who are already in possession of a 2019-2020 AOO Harvest Tag or are party harvesting under that Tag for WMU 51 and/or a Calf Tag. These eligible Algonquin Harvesters may harvest within WMU 51, both east and west of Shirley Lake Road, north of the Hwy 60 Corridor Development Zone and within the Algonquin of Ontario Settlement Area.

2019-2020 and Algonquin Provincial Park Hwy 60 Corridor Development Zone describe this expanded Harvest Area.

Algonquins who are eligible to harvest in Algonquin Park will be required to enter or exit Algonquin Park at the following access points: Shall Lake, Basin Road, Beechnut Road, Sand Lake, Hydro Line Road, Brent Road, Daventry Road, Kiosk, Bissett Road, Wylie-Bronson Road and Klocks Road. These locations are shown in the attached Map titled Algonquin Park Harvest Area Proposed Modifications 2019-2020 Community Monitor Locations.

Algonquins who are eligible to harvest in Algonquin Park will be required to comply with laws ordinarily in force in Ontario that are intended to protect or promote public safety in accordance with the AOO Harvest Management Plan. This includes obstructing rights of way. In addition, Algonquin Harvesters must be respectful of active forestry operational areas as some areas may not be clearly identified by signage in the area west of Shirley Lake Road as well as designated camping sites and trails.

For further information, please contact your local Algonquin Negotiation Representative.
