    Exception

    A licence is not necessary to borrow a firearm if the borrower remains under the direct and immediate supervision of a properly licensed adult aged 18 or older.

    Yeah - get the picture and hunt.
    If you have the picture and explain the situation and able to produce the real thing later, I think most co's would be ok. Not sure about the letter of the law but thats what I would.
    Also agree about reluctance to post - there's alot of tough guy egos and bullying on this forum

    And they never will. I have asked a CO why they don't ask for a Pal after I tried to hand him mine when stopped and he told me he didn't want to see it. Just wanted my hunting license/tags. A Pal is federal and CO is Provincial which is why a CO will never ask to see your Pal. RCMP is the other way around. They will only want to see your Pal and won't ask for a hunting license.

    I don't think my PAL or FAC has left my desk drawer. [ I suppose I',m hunting / gun carrying against the law? ] Nor have I been stopped by the rcmp so its never been an issue to me. to the OP: go enjoy your hunt this weekend.

    some replies may seem salty, but this is kinda knowledge that people think should be a common sense.
    looks like common sense not so common these days
    no offense

    You might want a friend with a valid PAL to transport your firearm back home with them and you pick it up later with your PAL.
