New Brunswick Considers Restrictions on U.S. Hunters and Anglers Amid Trade War Concerns
New Brunswick is facing significant backlash from American hunters and anglers, as well as local outfitters, after the province announced it may restrict U.S. residents from obtaining hunting and fishing licenses in response to the ongoing trade war with the United States. The potential policy change, which has sparked 'just plain panic' among industry stakeholders, could have severe economic consequences for rural communities that rely heavily on American tourism. Bradford Burns, a 75-year-old American angler who has fished in New Brunswick for 25 years, expressed disbelief at the prospect of being barred from the province's waters. He has invested over a million dollars in fishing camps along the Miramichi and Cains rivers and considers the activity a central part of his life. Burns, a self-described 'Trump Republican,' compared the province's potential move to President Trump's tactics, suggesting it might be more about gaining attention than serious policy. Larry Adair, owner of Adair's Wilderness Lodge, noted that approximately 30% of his business comes from American clients, with some outfitters relying on U.S. hunters for nearly 100% of their revenue. He warned that restricting access would be 'crippling' for small outfitters, many of whom are still recovering from a similar ban during the pandemic. The province's annual reports show a steady increase in non-resident hunting licenses sold to Americans, with 3,247 moose licenses sold in 2025 compared to 1,954 in 2021. Non-resident licenses cost significantly more than resident ones, with some fees up to seven times higher. Debbie Norton, president of the New Brunswick Professional Outfitter Guide Association, stated that over 90% of business in the hunting and fishing outfitting industry comes from American clients. She emphasized that the industry, while not the largest in the province, has a 'tremendous impact' on rural economies. Norton described the reaction to the potential restrictions as 'panic,' noting that many clients have been visiting for decades, fostering deep personal connections. The New Brunswick government has not provided specific details on how the restrictions would be implemented, but the province's news release indicated it would explore legislative changes to allow the minister of natural resources to restrict licenses based on certain criteria. The announcement came in response to U.S. tariffs, including a 50% tariff on select Canadian goods and a ban on Canadian alcohol imports. While the government stated it would prioritize Canadian goods in procurement, the potential impact on the hunting and fishing industry has raised concerns about unintended economic consequences for rural communities.
