Non-resident under 18 fishing license?

[siwash]

This is what I found on the OMNR website. If I am reading this correctly, my 17 nephew will not be required to purchase a license to fish as long as he's with me while fishing? He's a U.S. citizen and coming up for a portage trip I am planning for next week.

 

Can someone confirm this hasn't changed please. Thanks!

 

Non-Canadian residents under 18 years of age may fish without a licence if accompanied by a person who has a valid Ontario-issued recreational fishing licence (or deemed licence). Any fish caught are part of the catch and possession limit of the person who holds the licence.

That is correct. Just be aware of the possession limits as without his own permit you'll be sharing your limit with him.
