Bear Program Chaning

Local police will be saddled with more responsibility for nuisance bears . The provincial government's Bear Wise program is changing. Natural Resources Minister Michael Gravelle says from now on the ministry will no longer trap and relocate bears.   He says that will be left up to police.   Gravelle denies that it's a hands off approach to the problem saying the relocation program has been proven not to work.
