New hunting license?

[Found]

So, now that the OP and I both have had our little rant, a comparison between Sask and ON, if anyone is still interested.
In Saskatchewan, a resident hunter is only required to show a health services card to prove "resident status " - if the subject ever comes up when buying a licence from a local vendor. I do not recall ever being asked for proof.
The normal procedure here is
- no "outdoor card" requirement
- shoot varmints all year with no licence and no regulations other than the basic safety requirement to ask permission if within 500 meters of occupied buildings or barns.
- one "habitat" certificate to which all licenses are attached ( a sticker).
- separate hide and meat seals are issued for all big game. Also head seals for deer. No seals for fur bearers or birds.
- the usual federal migratory stamp is required in addition to a provincial bird licence if you want to hunt waterfowl.
- if successful with an application for limited entry hunts, the same sticker / tag system applies.
that's it. Simple and effective.

Well in Ontario nothing is simple, you better watch out bragging how good you got it. Most of the guys from Ontario will leave and end up as your neighbours.

So a follow up to my first post, here in ONTARIO they seem to have changed the sticker system for outdoors cards. They no long put the sticker on the back for small games, fishing, Moose ect ect.

Instead you get a card for each license you buy, like this

So buy the time you buy all the game seals and fishing license your wallet will be cluttered.

I wonder how my son or I did not end up with this little yellow plastic card. Hopefully we don’t end up getting fined for not being sent one. I asked around the gun club and places and no one I spoke to heard of one. Can you find any reference in the Regulations to them because I cannot?

You and me both! I did not get a seal either and did not have a small games lic on the back of my card too. I called the Ministry up and spoke to a woman and mentioned that I did not have a small game lic with my Ontario Outdoors card. She said there's an issue printing hunting lic with the fishing lic. Not sure if it had to do with me buying a 3yr conservation fishing lic and a 1yr small game lic. She couldn't really explain it clearly and said to just print out the electronic lic (bought it online) for the small game and keep that in my person along with my Outdoors card. Do these guys know what they're doing? What a gong show.
