Can't find it in the regs,

[Dave Bailey]

I'm certain that I once read that it's illegal to prevent someone from legally fishing, but I can't find it in the book. I'm not getting hassled, just wondering.

Here's the link: Fish & Wildlife Act 1997

 

 

 

Obstruction of hunting, trapping or fishing

 

13. (1) A person shall not interfere with lawful hunting, trapping or fishing by,

 

(a) tampering with traps, nets, bait, firearms or any other thing used for hunting, trapping or fishing;

 

( placing himself or herself in a position, for the purpose of interfering, that hinders or prevents hunting, trapping or fishing; or

 

© engaging in an activity, for the purpose of interfering, that disturbs or is likely to disturb wildlife or fish.

 

Notice without authority

 

(2) A person shall not purport to give notice that entry to premises is prohibited for the purpose of hunting or fishing or that hunting or fishing is prohibited on premises unless the person has authority to give the notice. 1997, c. 41, s. 13.

While I always felt confident I "knew" that reg existed it's good to see it quoted, even with the non-standard "B" (wonder what the profanity filter thought it meant?)

 

Good job getting that up for the rest of us Joey!
