From the office of MPP Norm Miller<\/em><\/p>\n

Ontario\u2019s Government for the People is supporting fishing and hunting in Ontario by putting a stop to hunting and fishing licence fee increases and removing the $2 service fee.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis will not only benefit the thousands of people in Parry Sound-Muskoka who hunt and fish but also the tourism businesses that rely upon hunting and fishing to attract visitors,\u201d said Parry Sound-Muskoka MPP Norman Miller.<\/p>\n

<\/broadstreet-zone><\/strong><\/div>\n

Hunting contributes more than $431 million to Ontario\u2019s economy while recreational fishing contributes $2.2 billion.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re making it easier for Ontarians to enjoy the great outdoors by keeping hunting and fishing licences affordable,\u201d said John Yakabuski, Minister of Natural Resources and Forestry. \u201cThis year, there will be no price hike and no service fee.\u201d<\/p>\n

In addition to freezing the fees, Ontario is promoting fishing by adding two new licence-free fishing events in 2019 on the weekends of Mother\u2019s Day and Father\u2019s Day. The government has also updated hunting regulations to, for example, include a new Licence Summary that can be stored on a mobile device.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur hunters and anglers are among the best stewards of our lands and waters,\u201d said Miller. \u201cWe want to make it easier for them to take part in the sports they love in Parry Sound-Muskoka and across Ontario.\u201d<\/p>\n
