Default RE: Are F&G Laws the same in Quebec?

I guess nobody here understands your questions then. There are no standard Canadian Fish & Game Laws. The only thing that might be considered standard is the Migratory Game Bird and even those seasons and limits vary province to province. Our Federal officers which are RCMP, have jurisdiction anywhere in Canada. Each province has it's own provincial police force, and the larger towns have their own city police, with jurisdictions the same as federal, state and local in the US. We just don't have county 'Buford Pussers' running around with a bunch of deputies. All of the Conservation Officers in each province have the authority to enforce Federal game laws as well as their own Provincial game laws. And these differ from province to province just like in the States. If you get stopped by a Conservation Officer in the Province of Quebec he will speak French or English to you. I found very few that couldn't speak fluent English. Either way, they will get their point across to you. If I lived in the state of New York and was going to Texas to hunt, I'd be checking the Texas state game laws. Because even I know they are not the same in Texas as inNew York. I enclosed a thread in one of my other posts to you that has all the Quebec hunting and fishing regulations, both Federal and Provincial.
