Decision Date: October 23, 2000

Panel: Alan Andison

Keywords: Consent order

Michael Bradley Aydon appealed a decision of the Deputy Director of Wildlife to cancel his hunting licence for approximately 15 months, to declare him ineligible to apply for the limited entry hunt draw until July 1, 2001, and to order him to successfully complete the C.O.R.E. program before his hunting privileges could be reinstated. The Deputy Director’s decision was based on Mr. Aydon having been charged and convicted under the Wildlife Act for making a false statement to a Conservation Officer, fishing without an angling licence, and fishing with more than one fishing line.

By consent of the parties, the Board ordered that the penalty imposed by the Deputy Director be reduced. Accordingly, Mr. Aydon is eligible to apply for the limited entry hunt draw on January 6, 2001, instead of July 1, 2001.
