So hunting while impaired is frowned upon pursuant to Section 30 of the Wildlife Act in Alberta (and in other jurisdictions) -

Alberta Wildlife Act

Alcohol and drugs

30 A person shall not hunt wildlife while the person’s ability to
hunt is impaired by alcohol or a drug.

http://www.qp.alberta.ca/documents/Acts/W10.pdf


Hunting while impaired could be construed as careless use? Conceivable then a further and more serious charge could result pursuant to Section 86(1) of the Criminal Code?

86 (1) Every person commits an offence who, without lawful excuse, uses, carries, handles, ships, transports or stores a firearm, a prohibited weapon, a restricted weapon, a prohibited device or any ammunition or prohibited ammunition in a careless manner or without reasonable precautions for the safety of other persons.

"Second Hand smoke sucks!!!



Now lets go hunt in a tent or cabin with a wood stove!"

I enjoy both, with moderation, at the right times. As long as you use them responsibly its no problem with me.

With all due respect...no need for a law lecture...

As mentioned before, and I will repeat it, it is about "responsible, lawful, and respectful" use of a legal substance, just like alcohol.

Well, there's two parts to this, there's hunting - and then there's camping.
It's illegal to be impaired when hunting, but this doesn't say anything about when sitting in camp. :cheers::onCrack:
 
In moderation, after hours, I don't see an issue. My only concern would be that 75% of pot smokers I know toke up for breakfast too. The scent is pretty obvious to me, but they don't notice it on themselves anymore. They treat it more like a cigarette than a beer or a scotch, which very few would think of consuming when they first wake up.

This year spring bear hunt is with my Wife and Kids. As much as I enjoy the crazy week in the bush with friends to let loose. Sometimes nice and quiet is the way to go !

At least with the family, I get to hunt all 5 days ;) not just 2 because im passed out for the other 3 ... hehehehhehehe

I hear that, our May long weekend is always a gong show lol. We all have fun at a weird little bc parks site that's out of the way, never any family's to disturb. We basically post up and drink our faces off for 3-4 days, it's a great time. We always cook a huge meal over the fire the first night, I remember prepping veggies to roast in the skillet but don't remember eating my ribeye lol. Everyone said I enjoyed it a lot :)

I don't do the hunt camp thing around here but when I hunt local or at a buddies cabin we keep it chill, out before dawn. Hunt till near dusk if we don't get anything early, once the day or gutting is done we eat and have a few drinks around the fire. In bed at a normal hour and repeat the next day, nothing wrong with relaxing once the work is done.

As mentioned in my original post...let's not derail this.

This is not about "profiling" as per your comment. Many enjoy a toddy and some will enjoy a "toke" to R and R...Let's not slam the ones that are responsible with practicing, and self choice way of life. Come on!
 
Having never dabbled with weed, I’m curious:

I drink, but only because I enjoy the taste. I have zero interest in getting drunk or even buzzed, but man I enjoy a glass of Innis & Gunn, or a good whiskey. Never guzzled, but sipped and enjoyed.

Does such a distinction exist with weed? Is it something to be enjoyed for the taste or aroma, or does the only enjoyment come from the high?

That's definitely true.

As for the smell, I shoot skunks around camp, so...........

I want to say it's nice to see you have an open mind about it even if it's something you don't do yourself. I know some friends who's parents won't touch anything weed related because of its legal standing, some have health issues that could be reduced with cbd oils and salves. They've said if it was legalized tomorrow that they would try it out, so I get the illegal acpect is a deterant fpr a lot of people regardless of age.

If you are consuming Cannabis aka weed via smoking, then yes there are similarities to alcohol like whiskey and wine. That is they all have different flavour profiles, in cannabis these are called terpenes. Aroma, flavour and smoothness of the smoke are all traits that seasoned cannabis users consider....think about a nice bottle of wine vs. a box from the corner store.
The level of high is also something to consider as different strains can have a large difference in the amount of THC, it's finding the sweet spot for each particular person.
