The annual licence will cost '$10 while a short-term licence to fish for foul consecutive days will cost SS. "In public meetings held across the province, and through angler surveys, we have received strong support for this licence,.° said Mr:. Kerrio. "People have indicated strong approval for plans to put funding equivalent to revenues generated from this licence ,- projected to be 9 -to -$10 -million a year into fisheries improvement programs. This support indicates that the time is ripe to adopt the. 'user -pay' principle in fisheries management." "As a result of comments expressed in public meetings, we decided, toexempt senior citizens from the licence and to incorporate, the short-term licence for . occasional anglers," Mr. Kerrio said, The licence will be widely available through tbe,Ministry of Natural Resources network of private licence issuers. which- includes sporting goods stores and tackle and bait shops, The network will be expanded as required to meet the demand for the licence. MNR district offices will also distribute the licenses. Mr. Kerrio said Ontario is among the last of the provinces to introduce a resident angling licence. _ In January. Cabinet gave approval in principle to the proposed licence. Since then, the Ministry of Natural Resources has held more than 30 meetings across the province to hear public views, Questionnaires, , angler surveys and letters to the ministry indicated that most people favored a licence, providing hat• funding equivalent to revenues generated is used in fisheries management,. "The additpnal funding `will be used to improve the qualityof sport fishing in Ontario," Mr, Kerrio. said. "it 'will go toward programs to protect, rehabilitate and enhance Ontario's fisheries, both in northern and southern Ontario, "For example, we can consider such projects as fish culture stations, •the construction of fish ladders to aidnatur- ally-reproducing species, unproved en, for sport dishing farsements capability . and_ restoring—fish habitat in urban areas to `provide more fishing opportunities nearer people's hom- es.'' omdes,.. Mr. Kerrio said the resident angling licence will also give ministry staff important information about how the resource is being used: "It It will tell us who. is fishing, where and for what. With this information, we'll be better able to gear our fisheries management programs to the • nee& of resource usees." A Fisheries Advisory Council. to be made of members of the public, will advise the Minister on fisheries management priorities and fisheries -related expenditur- es. "The investment which anglers make in our fisheries resources will have far-reach- ing benefitsin increased employment, and tourism and. recreational opportunities," Mr. Kerrio said..
