If you read the paper that comes in the mail with your card it states that you must carry and produce the paper as well. Its another technicality that the feds can use if they want.
Never have my PAL when hunting. I don't want to lose it in the bush.
Also never been been asked to produce it other then when crossing the boarder coming home into Canada
also not going to start carrying it
Agree. No need for the negative posts that ultimately drive people away from a forum that they may ultimately contribute to. I think the OP's question was a good one. Quite likely that many on this site were not exactly sure of the answer. Article in todays Victoria paper stating that social media is causing people to resign from political positions and discouraging good candidates from running. Seems the cons of social media are beginning to out way the pros. Unfortunate. Hang in there campking.
