Hunting Permits 2024

Kiʔsuʔk kyukyit,

The decision on the 2024 Hunting Permits has been made, and applications are now closed. These permits allow non-Ktunaxa Indigenous people to hunt off-reserve and outside the provincial regulations. We have also shared an example of the permits so the community knows what to look for if they come across a hunter on their lands.

 

Nicole Kapell - New ʔaq̓am Chief Administrative Officer (CAO).
