The Veteran Hunters Canada Ltd is a non-profit organization operated by volunteers who are retired Canadian Armed Forces Veterans and First Responders, who themselves have gone through their own mental health journeys. Their goal is to serve their fellow Veterans and First Responders by providing peer support and therapy gained through outdoor adventures.​ Participants in our programs acknowledge that being in the outdoors is extremely therapeutic, especially when surrounded by fellow Soldiers, Law Enforcement Officers, Firefighters and Corrections Officers.

The MBA was established in 1978. Over 40 years later, we have assumed an active role in the Massachusetts archery community to further the sport of archery. The primary goal of the MBA is to further the sport of archery hunting. Through legislative action, public awareness, and a show of numbers, we can make a change. 

A Community Together

The MBA has contributed to several of the important change sin Massachusetts legislation including the two deer season, the Hunter Harassment Bill, and extensions of archery and muzzleloader seasons.

Sunday hunting, baiting bear, shorter distance requirements? Who knows what we can achieve in the new day!
