Why Join the BC Wildlife Federation?

Every membership strengthens the future of hunting, fishing, trapping, shooting sports, and conservation in British Columbia.

No single club—regardless of its size—can effectively influence provincial policy on its own. But together, through the BC Wildlife Federation, more than 40,000 members speak with one united voice. That voice is heard by government, decision-makers, and the public when the future of our outdoor heritage is on the line.

When your club joins the BC Wildlife Federation, you’re investing in:

Advocacy that matters. BCWF represents your interests on issues such as public access, fish and wildlife management, salmon allocation, habitat protection, firearm legislation, conservation funding, and the future of hunting and angling in British Columbia.

Protecting our outdoor heritage. Every membership helps defend the traditions we want our children and grandchildren to enjoy. If we don’t stand together today, we risk losing opportunities tomorrow.

Supporting local clubs. BCWF provides resources, insurance options, grants, volunteer support, conservation expertise, youth programming, and training that help affiliated clubs thrive.

Growing the next generation. Through youth education, archery programs, conservation initiatives, and hunter education, BCWF is ensuring that tomorrow’s conservationists are ready to carry the torch.

A stronger conservation community. Together we restore wetlands, improve fish habitat, advocate for wildlife, support scientific research, and work with communities across British Columbia.

Membership isn’t just about receiving benefits—it’s about becoming part of something bigger than any one club.

Every new member means:

A stronger voice in Victoria.

More influence on government decisions.

More resources for conservation.

Greater support for local clubs.

A brighter future for our outdoor traditions.

If not us, then who?

The challenges facing conservation have never been greater. Decisions are being made today that will shape hunting, fishing, trapping, and wildlife management for generations.

The BC Wildlife Federation isn’t asking clubs simply to join—we’re asking them to stand together.

Because when one club speaks, it’s a local opinion.

When thousands of members speak together, government listens.
