Lets say I am shooting targets on crown land but I dont have a hunters license, is it fine?
How often will I realistically run into a conservation or law enforcement officer while shooting on crown land?

Gone shooting on crown land once. And ran into a conservation officer once. He was more upset with the parking job than the guns.
And we were shooting Tavors, Type 97s and vz58s. So not your typical mainstream stuff.

Why do you need a hunters license to shoot?
"There's a big ... machine in the sky, ... some kind of electric snake ... coming straight at us."
"Shoot it," said my attorney.
"Not yet," I said. "I want to study its habits.
I have met up with COs and OPP many times while playing outdoors. I have even had OPP come onto my 50 acre bush lot and start looking around for me. They tend to respond to gunfire fairly quickly and they usually leave just as fast once they realize no laws are being broken. Just make sure you are playing safe and I always say it is advisable to keep any literature pertaining to any of your "non mainstream" toys. EI, if it's black and scary, you should know your FRT#. If you use LAR, Beowolf mags, Glock mags in an NR rifle, etc keep a copy of special bulletin 72 on you.
OK you need to do some research and not asking basic questions that you can find by reading the mass of posts already on this site or others, or by READING the FIREARM ACT.
You are exhibiting an excess of laziness with your 2nd thread started with topics that have been covered a thousand times before, and easily found if one actually looks.
I'm going to speculate here, that you are affiliated with the OPP or the Ontario CFOs office or some anti gun liberal "journalist" looking to get some angle for a story.

If you are upset with his thread dont comment on it or read it!
no need to show so much agression to a fellow gun owner, we stand together or we dont stand at all!

If the new guy just completed the course he should be well aware of what he can and cannot do with a firearm.
