Regarding the proposed changes to the Moose management system, there is a short section in the appendix about hunters' feedback on Indigenous hunting practices. Apparently there is a high level of concern regarding Indigenous hunting as summarized:

Indigenous harvest
Frequency: high
Description:
restrict harvest
require draw entry
require reporting
enforce limit (ex. 1 moose per family)
harvest out of control
night hunting concerns
apply season
restrict to traditional methods (bow and arrows) not guns

However, i find nowhere in the actual report where Indigenous hunting is addressed. There isn't even a mention of it as a potential issue, even if MNR considers it to be irrelevant. Since the frequency of written comments on this issue is counted as "high", I would expect that MNR would reflect that in the final report, rather than sweep it under the rug. If there is a section on this issue and I have missed it in my reading, please direct me to its location.
