While the sport hunting lobby is well-organized and aggressive, they actually represent a very small and declining portion of the overall population. The truth is that angling, but especially sport hunting are no longer popular outdoor activities. According to a federal report released in 2000, The Importance of Nature to Canadians, only 3.5% of Ontarians engage in the sport of hunting but yet they are given 100% of Ontario's natural resources including our parks and conservation areas, affording wildlife zero protection. It also brings in the least amount of dollars for the Province. Outdoor activities in natural areas, such as picnicking, photography, gathering nuts and berries, climbing, sailing, camping etc. brought 2.9 billion dollars to Ontario's economy. In addition to this, wildlife viewing brought in 410 million dollars for a total economic boost of 3.3 billion dollars. Compare this to fishing and hunting activities, whose economic contribution doesn't even reach the one billion dollar mark. Since the sport hunting and fishing industry is consumptive in nature and selective in species preservation (game species preferred), it often becomes incompatible with the larger objective of maintaining ecological integrity. It can also conflict with other outdoor users and societal views on wildlife ethics.
