Mr. Jones said the first clause was unnecessary because it. is dealt with in the Migratory Game Bird Act. “All these penalties are provided under the treaty with the United States. Why duplicate it in this Act?" Mr. Saville asked if the Act permitted snaring of rabbits. He objected to this practice, as it was not sportsmanship; it “didn’t give the rabbit a chance at ull," and the rabbit is the only game animal we have in this country. Ministerial Control Hon. Mr. Dennis moved that af- ter the section the words "except with the written permission of the Mirilst/er of Agriculture" be added. Mr. Jones: “The Minister of Ag- riculture has no authority except in case of partridge." Mr. Mustard: “That would mean that any hunter who gets the writ- ten permission of the Minister of Agriculture can allow his dogs to run at large." The amendment was carried. Sec. 5 (di provides a penalty of $10 to $50 for exporting or at- itfllllii-i-H8 to export out of the pro- vince any game taken or killed in the province. Hon. Mir. Dennis moved the same amendment, that the words "with the written permission of the Min- istcr of Agriculture" be added. He doubted whether there would not be interference with dominion reg- ulations. Mr. Hughes: "Would it not be better to add a section to the end of the Act that the Minister of Agri- culture can do anything." Hou. Mr. Dennis explained that the department was now arranging to export a number of Hungarian partridge to Ontario. Premier Campbell: "I em not sure that this subsection is within our Jurisdiction. The amendment carried; B60. 6 (ai provides a similar pen- alty for anyone “who uses or at- tempts to use a. rifle or other fire arrns loaded with bulletsor bullet within the province for the pur- .rlose of huntlns some birds, except as may be permitted under the Ml- Hfntory Birds Convention Act." M11 Mustard: "Does that mean that ii’ you load your rifle outside me Province you could come here and shoot." Mr- Cox: “No. no." (laughter). Subsection (b) penalizes the use °f ‘filly machine, automatic or PUIHD gun for the purpose of hunt_ ing °l` killing game or game birds." ml-Ion. Mr. Dennis objected that ere was no reason why pump Elins should not be allowed, since the bas is limited. He moved an amendment accordingly. Mr. Acorn maintained that pump suns were prohibited in the Feder- al Act. Hon. Mr .Den is: “ C°mPI|9S with Ilho Dl`gl,`I1i\§llIg§es;bcvr: S'-‘§.’Ii.°’2I”-.f‘”§3i“ii§’”“.‘""F’ “”°‘" " automatic gun), ey ont allow an Mr' 0°* "But they Plug those Wm” Elms Under the Dominion roilulation.

Premier Campbell: "one objee.. tion to this Act is that it is going Igsiiittgfcfc very seriously with the mi n ustry. Sec. 6 (fi nenallzes yone who "se.ls or offers for sale any game in this province.” Mr. Acom: "Has it not been ruled that a fox is a domestic animal " Premier Cmmpbep- ..U-nd" ‘the Domestic Animals Act- but this Ae; makes it 8 some animal.

M1* Hil¢h@BI "If the present slaughter of rabbits for fox ranches keeps on we will have none very shortly! Hon. Mr. McGuigan: "That is it new provision, that you can‘t seil.‘ Mr. Jones moved that in sec. 2 the maximum penalty be applied against the killing of beaver. Mr. Acorn dbjected to permn. ting lmrcs or any other animals to be caught, to feed foxes. Our game is too scarce, and we must protect it. Hon. Mr. McGulgan asked why a man should not be allowed to buy partridge, if he wanted to. Rabbit! Mr. Jones said hares will in- crease one year "till _vou will see one under every bush." and in a few years time you will see none. These are periodic increases and decreases, not due to shooting oi them at all, but to the fact that a plague comes and wipes them out. That occurs every eight or nine years. Mr. Saville: "Why shouldn’t the boys have u chance to shoot them when they are plentiful. because they won't get the chance in a few years anyway?" Mr. Acorn asked for a division on Mr. Saville's motion. Mr. Linkletter: "Many places would be overrun if they were not allowed to shoot them. Whyshould they be' wasted?" Mr. Acorn: “They are out west." Mr. Linkletter: "We are speak- ing of our own province. There are thousands of rabbits being shot I by poor people. It helps them along. They don't take stock of the season; they will kill as long the Provincial Treasurer, be paid‘ I as they can. If you cease to give I permission. the farms will be over- Ii-un, and the people will miss ' them who have lived on them." Mr. Barber agreed with the last speaker. He knew of several fam- ilies who were on relief during the last two or three years. Who made something by catching rab- bits and selling them. The stores bought them for about 25 cents I. palr and resold. them again. He did not think it would be 110551519 to enforce this section in that part of the country, because there was a great deal of woods, and poor people will be continually catching rabbits in the mst part of the winter. There would not ‘ be anything for it but send them to jail, if convicted. Mr. Savi1le‘s amendment was put and carried. Mr. Acorn ob- jecting. Sunday Fishing Hon_ Mr, Allen raised the ques- tion as to the legality of ilshiiig on Sunday. Hon. Mr. l..ePage asked if there ~ was anythmg in< the Act to pro- I hibii. sunday fishing. Mr. Cox: "No." Hon. Mr. LePage: “I think lt ought to be held over till we get -ir." Mr. MacKinnon: “Isn‘t there any law that prohibits that?" I Mr. Jones: “About thirty years ; ago, when Arthur Peters was Premier, this question came up. about fishing on Sunday. It was brought in by t.he~ Lord’s Day Al- , liance, and Premier Peters got up h a ace to fish on on Sunday.” Mr. MacPhee: “I think it was a six days in the week to fish." Sec. 7 makes it unlawful "tc fish trout or salmon to belfed to foxes, mink or other animals." Hon. Mr. Allen thought. the im- portation oi' dead trout should not Sec. 8 provides: duty of all constables. policemen, ' officers and constables of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police and Market Clerks, to enforce the provisions of this Act, whenever the infringement thereof comes under their notice, under a pen- alty of not loss.-tllan $5 for each omission of duty." Hon. Mr. Allen protested that this was a drastic measure. Aman Mr. Acorn expressed approval of the section. It was carried. Sec. 9 provides that the "klll- ing, taking, having or vending contrary to the provisions of this Act of each several bird. animal. or egg, shall be deemed to con- stitute a separate odence.” Mr. Hughes: “In view of the fact that there is a maximum pen- nity of $50 I would move that this section be struck out." Motion carried. Hon. Mr. Allen: “I move that the section stand." Mr. Stewart: "I move that it be reconsidered." Motion carried. Hon. Mr. Allen: “If the motion is to have it struck out Iwlthdraw the motion." Sec. 10 penalizes every common carrier or person acting thcrcforc who at any time knowingly carries or transports out of the province any species of game. Hon. Mr. Allan: "There is no question that we have no right whatever to legislation with regard ,to export. This section does not mean anything." Mr. Acom: “The clause corres- ponds with clause l2 in the old Act." * Carried. Sec. ll provides for appoint- ment by Lieutenant Governor in Cguncii of li game inspector and w rdens, and outlines their duties. Hon. Mr. l’..ePage: “The Mounted Police could do that work, and they might be appointed: but I am pretty safe in saying that this pense of employing extra men to es. was amended to exclude wir- dens (in addition to game inspec- tor and constables) from right of search for game or nest or eggs of Sec. 17 makes it unlawful for a non-resident to fish or hunt with- might be “innocently guilty." I mer and fish without a license. Previously he could.” Mr. Acorn: “I think that am- endment is a good one. Simply because I happened to be a resi- dent of the Island, why should my son, l. non resident. have any pri- vilege that any other non-resident has not? Thatlookslike classlegis- lation." Mr. Saville: "I think it is going too far." ' Mr. Hughes: “I would movethst the section stand." Motion carried. Sec. 18 provides that all nnes, fees or other monies received un- der authority of the Act, shall be paid to the Provincial Treasurer. Sec. 19 provides that fifty per cent. of all moneys so received by over to the Game Association un- der the order of the president for the time being, countersigned by the Game Inspector, to be used for such Association towards oar- Irylng out the provisions of the Act; the remainder to be held by plied toward the expenses incurred in carrying out the provisions of lthe Act. and of any other enact- ment for the preservation of game in the province. ‘ MI. Hughes: “There are two Game Associations ln the prov- ince. Would the promoter tell us which of these Associations will receive t.ha fees?" I Mr. MacKinnon moved that sec. I 19 be struck out “unless the Asso- ciation was wllling to bear part of the cost of prosecutions where they do not obtain. a conviction.” Mr. Acorn: "This is sec. 23 in the old Act; it has been the law for years.” Mr. Ma/cKinnon's amendment can-led. ' Sec. 22 provides that “any resi- dent of the province may lay, in- formation or complaints" under the Act, and receive one-half the fine together with costs. It was struck out on motion of Mr. Hughes. With regard to sec. 23, license fees for lion residents, Mr. Jones asked if Indians, coming from the mainland to trap here, were liable to pay license. They come over alter beaver and arc generally I nuisance. Mr. Cox; “An Indian has the privilege of catching salmon or trout at any time for his ovm use, but not to sell I and said he ad D1 ~ sunday, and he was going to fish Hon. McGuigan objected to the limitation of 20 trout per an- gler per day. The old Act. pro- very queer thing to say. We have vided a limit of 30. He thought it should be restored. ough. Mr. C-ampbell's Declaration be prohibited. Hon. John A. Campbell said that The clause was amended toread I was all right for a sportsmen. but I “trout or salmon caught in this . what about the farmer? "Is it prov-Im.,e_»» Ifa.ir," he asked, “when I can only "It shall be the fish, perhaps, once a month, that I cannot fish more than 20 trout? I say, independent of all the Acts you pass here, that when I go fishing, you may depend that I am going to fish more than 20 trout. The man who can go fishing every day is different." Hon. Mr. Dennis: “It makes very little difference whether we pass ‘when a member of the Executive Council gets to his feet on the ,floor of this House and states that 'if he is going fishing he will not stop at 20 trout even if the law provides that that is the case. Un- I der those conditions I say it mat- ters little whether we pass laws, if we. as legislators of this province. will not be govemed by the laws we make. Then I submit that we might as well wipe the slate clean " Mr. Mustard: "I think the hon. , member from Heatherdale has cit- ed u. condition that is common among most of us. He makes the suggestion that people wanting to go fishing once a month might be given a monthly allowance." Hon. John A. Campbell: “I might go fishing and catch only 10 trout the first day. If I went out the next day and caught I thirty do you think that I ought to be prosecuted?" Voices: “Yes!" Hon. J. A. Campbell: “I don't think its fair. You should average | the thing. I think my hon. friend Mr. Cox ‘is inclined. to be a. little Isevcrc. Hc won't stop at any- thing." I Mr. Cox: “lf you make it 30 and _got big trout, what would you do? You couldn't eat them."

One goes fur- ther thari the other.” Bkunks Sec. 31 provides for continuimo- of the skunk bounty- Hon. J. A. Campbell said he be- lieved there was "a leak" some- where in this skunk bounty busi- ness. There was something wrong “I want this information from the Minister: when a skunk is calif- ured, the head and the feet ale taken into the Department oi’ Ag- riculture. I want to ask him do they destroy the head and feet, or what do they do? Do you allow the man who takes that in to take it back, and pay him the bounty for the second time? I say this thing is not right. There is some- thing wrong some place. I say that there never were enough skunks caught in Prince Edward island that would justify this de- partment paying out at the rate of thousands of dollars. Wo should have something to prove that the number of skunks is correct as advocated by the Department. And my hon. friend has no proof. Hc has nothing to show. They come in here with the hczid and feet and he admits that they are al- lowed to take the head and feel and come back again for more. l am surprised ur, my hon. friend the Minister of Agriculture. He is not always asleep. My exper- ience ls that he sleeps with one eye open. But in this case he has absolutely failed to give an 80- count of the number of skunk: that have been ri:$itly captured. I say that the Minister. when the head and feet come in-the first thing for him to do is to put the head and feet in ri bag. and if it is above his dignity to do the trick. -then lot him get somebody to do it, fir lifni." (Laughter). Mg. Linklettcr: “I know a. young fellow who captured two femalo skunks, but by the appeainnce oi' them he thought ills family might grow, so he waited with the result that he raised two goodlit- ters of skunks and sold them to the Department of Agriculture." Mr. Mclsaac said the section provided for sending in the fore- feet. W’i'ia.t about the hind feet. How does the Minister know which end of the skunk is sent in? (Laughter) Or does the promoter think that those skunks have only two feet? Then the man could come back with the head after- wards. Hon. Mr. Dennis: "We don't pay for the feet or the head or the tail of the skunk, but the snout of the skunk is taken. I made it my business to inquire as in how the operation was performed. I un- derstand that the snout of the skunk-ho is upside down-is cut upwards, but not cut through the skin, so that the party who hal charge of the piivimiiii of iliosi snouts will know that it isnskiini. He must show tlic two stripes or the nose of the skunk. He is pal: on that. And when lie is paid on that all the shouts are burned." Mr.lVl'.aoPhee: “You are not. put- ting any in bags?" ibauglitcrl. Hon. Mr. Dennis: "No, no." Hon. Mr. McIntyre siiid he ull- derstood from a reliable authority that not- only the head and feet are sent in. but there are imitat- icns. ,l-Ie heard that what looked like a piece of a skunk‘s sliout \\-as sent. to Mr. Jenkins, and llicrc were a couple of stripes. imitated with plumswne. And as Mr. Link- letter has stated, people are rear- ing skunks in order to sell them to the Department of Agriculture. He believed an effort should be made io get rid of them altogeth- er in this province. Mr. MacKinnon asked if it was not possible for Nova Scotia and New Brunswick troopers to soil the skills over ilirro nlzcl Colne over here \\1'tli thc siiniiis. Mr. Jones said that in Now- foundlancl there is ii bounty on crows of fifty cents. and there is quite a business lierc of shooting crows and sending them dowri to Ncwfoiindland for tlic bolillty, The same thing might be going on in Nova Scotia-sending theilskunks here. increase In Bounty Hon. Mr. Dennis: “Within the last week or ton days our Depart- ment has increased the bounty on skunks from 5? cents to $1, only up to March 5, with the idea that we may be able- to get the old hussy before she has the young." After some further discussion, program was reported. On motion of Premier Camlp- bell, t.he following bills were read the third time and passed: The County Court Act; An Act to Amend the Souris Incorporation Act: The Division Fence Act.
