B.C. fishermen vs. dude that married into Walmart fortune
Monday, April 9, 2012 at 12:00AM
A dispute is escalating between the American billionaire owners of a massive B.C. cattle ranch and a local fishing group.
The fishermen say the ranch is blocking their access to two public lakes located on the Douglas Ranch near Merritt, B.C.
The 200,000-hectare property — reputed to be the largest working cattle ranch in Canada — is owned by billionaire Stan Kroenke, who's also owner of the NHL's Colorado Avalanche. His wife, Ann Walton Kroenke, is the daughter of Wal-Mart department store founder Bud Walton.
