Good for Walker.  When I lived in Tok, Hickel's BOG and F&G tried on behalf of non-subsistence hunters and fishers, to eliminate local preference to give equality to wealth urbanites who didn't depend on it to put food on the table. The per capita income was less than $10,000 a year, and people depended not only on it for feeding themselves, but tradition required that the death of an elder, for instance, required a community dinner that featured moose and caribou, salmon and grayling. If a family couldn't provide it, the memorial was postponed or never held. This was the epitome of the glue that held these communities together. They should have a say in a subject so critical to their culture and existence.
