ANNUAL TIEPORT, 1942-43 



I 



The total collections represent a decline of more than $220,000.00 a.s compared with the 

 jevenu(? produced in the previous fiscal year. The principal reason for this decrease is the 

 reduced amount of fees received from the sale of non-resident licenses, both angling and 

 Ir.mting. In 1941-42 the revenue from the sale of these licenses reached the impressive total 

 of $600,884.95. The amount received this year from this source was S399.508.85. a decrease 

 of more than $201 '000.00. This decrease had been anticipated and was unquestionably due 



) a condition to which reference was made in our previous Annual Report, viz: — the United 

 -tates now being involved in war would necessarily result in restrictions on travel and trans- 



ortation facilities, which with the added necessity of stern application to the producton of 



]tal war material, would undoubtedly result in a very noticeable decrease in the number of 

 \merican citizens visiting this country for vacation purposes. Other important reductions 



1 the collection of revenue when compared with that of the previous fiscal year will be 

 Ml)served in the amounts received from the sale of commercial fishing license.s^ which 

 decreased $13,500.00. from penalties imposed on those convicted of violations of provisions 

 of the Game and Fisheries Act, and from the sale of articles confiscated following .such con- 



ictioris, which decreased $16,000.00' and from fur royalties, which decreased $8,500.00. It 

 tnay, however, be of interest to make reference to the fact that the amount of $231,151.56 

 received from the sale of various types of hunting licenses to residents of Ontario was 

 ?29,000 00 in excess of the amount derived from the same source in the preceding year.
