7mm PRC soon to be the most popular cartridge in North America
I voted black bear, but after re-reading the question: Which big game animal is the easiest to kill ? I would change and go with sitka blacktail. Those little buggers drop pretty easy when you shoot them. Black bears on the other hand can be a little tough at times and like to run into thick bush if not hit just right.
If you were to line each one up and shoot them all in the same place at the same time I would bet the sitka would die first. Now easiest to hunt in BC is the black bear.
I have to vote bull elk. Definatly the easiest for me in my area. Now if I move out of my home area I would give a different answer but that just doesn't happen to often.
I picked black bear due to the spring hunt. I've taken a few new hunters out and have had good success when the bears are out eating along roadsides and clearcuts in the spring. Bears are often to busy chomping down on grass and give little attention to anything else. Most of the shots are less than 75 yards.
Gives the new hunter plenty of time and a good range for a clean kill.
Edit: the fact a guy can see a dozen black bear an evening(where I'm from anyways) helps too! If things don't work out on the first stalk... just drive around the corner, there's probably another bear to go after.

Black bear for sure.
Best way for a new hunter to cut his or her teeth.
In fact, our club recently put on a bear hunting seminar and one of the guys who put on the seminar took out a new bear hunter and the new bear hunter whacked a 7' brown phase in the first 15 minutes. Easy peazy.

Black bears ,but what is the hardest ? on that note I would say black tail on the island.
In general have to say black bear. But if a person wins a Mule doe LEH for october then it doesn't get much easier. With a well placed bullet both will drop pretty quick.
I don't shoot innocent animals... Just the ones that look guilty!
