I think you're confused as to how resident hunting and guide outfitting works in BC. Your statement (bold) is wrong.
Conservation concerns are 1st priority
First Nations get 2nd priority
Residents get 3rd priority
Guides get 4th priority
There's been some confusion and some number jugging in allocation this year as to the positions of those last two. But if you're not a lazy azz (and you can afford to get to your destinations), you can kill a trophy of every big game species every year in BC.
Yes, there is a large guiding sector. Yes, they have been allocated too many resident tags. No, there is not any correlation between this new AB system and BC's system. Not by a long shot.
Oh, and stop complaining about classified waters. There's a few million water bodies not under the CW system. Go fish those, or get Morton to create a CW system in AB. I'll pay it.
