303 bear or moose stopper

Only legal alternative I can see is for you to Borrow Gatehouse's Spear? :wink: If it'll stop a charging Bear, it should work for Moose! :mrgreen:

I can't find the reg that sunray is refering to about being considered hunting, it used to be in the reg booklet, now it seems to be gone. I bet the reg is still there though.

did some digging, here it is in all it's glory.

Ontario Fish and Wildlife Conservation Act. (1997)

109. In a prosecution under this Act in respect of hunting or trapping,

(a) proof that a person possessed, in an area usually inhabited by wildlife, a firearm, trap, decoy or other hunting or trapping device, a ferret or a specially protected raptor or other bird of prey, is proof, in the absence of evidence to the contrary, that the person was hunting or trapping, as the case may be; and

(b) proof that a person shot at or stalked a decoy or other device placed by a conservation officer to suggest the presence of wildlife is proof, in the absence of evidence to the contrary, that the person was hunting. 1997, c. 41, s. 109.
 
"Evidence to the contrary" could be the accused or witnesses stating that he/she wasn't hunting, if the court chose to believe the statements, but that "if" is too big for my liking.
