Folks,



As the UCP had committed to into in their platform, the Alberta government is consulting on how they can improve recreation opportunities - specifically for trail & backcountry users on public lands.



Under the current consultation process, there is a public user survey open until Jan 15th, 2021 to provide your input and feedback under the “Alberta Crown Land Vision”.



Please take the time to do the survey, as your input will help guide policy changes and legislation supporting backcountry and trail recreation into the future. The AOHVA and it’s member clubs across the province volunteer to maintain OHV trails on public lands, inputting on policy and recommendations to support our volunteer clubs and OHV recreation. This is a great opportunity to input and support your recreation on public lands, the survey is short and the questions are straight up.



You have to register to do it, which helps in the quality of the survey.



1. Go to https://www.alberta.ca/sustainable-outdoor-recreation-engagement.aspx

2. Click on ‘Take Survey” at the bottom.

3. Provide your login name, email address, create a password and enter your postal code.

4. Look for a confirmation email and click on the link contained in it.

5. Fill out the survey.

One would figure OHV registration and a portion of the fuel tax would pay for what they want to do. It’s another tax....

If there is a user fee fee, then there should only be a 1 time registration fee for your machine and insurance if u want it. Otherwise who's to say the actual $ goes into a fund for trails etc.. and not general revenue for the slush fund. These clowns better start getting the roads back into shape instead of trying to bilk the consumer for more coinage ffs.:/

I agree that the registration fees should go to back country improvements a better enforcement, but I personally don't have a problem with an annual user fee provided it all goes to improvements and better enforcement.....I think it would be easier to counter the arguments of the tree huggers that continually want to shut the backcountry down if we could argue that we pay to take care of where we ride.....

I think they decided to turn the areas into open pit coal mines....
