It seems like all the Ontario guys use Alphas and Astros.
In Alberta many use Sportdog Tek, they are scared of the Alpha out there, no one has much experience with it. Doesn't matter what you say, they won't believe you.
No you can't just shoot them...
But take your pick...

Who would charge you for using a Garmin Astro and with what? Regulatory laws rarely equal "charges".
Industry Canada would charge you... The charges would be something like:
1) Operating a Non-type Approved Transmitter
( Since Garmin has never gotten Certifcation from Industry Canada for the Collars)
( Maybe 1 count for each collar and handheld you have. 1 collars, 1 handheld = 2 charges)
2) Operating without a license for the band
( Since you don't have a license for the band, and Garmin has NOT licensed it in Canada)
3) Causing willful interference to LICENSED uses of the Band.
( Can you prove you did not? Just asking some guy at the fire Department proves nothing)
Definitions:
BAND. A group or block of Frequencies or Channels Assign to a Radio Service or Type Of Equipment which transmit on Radio Frequencies.
Not the exact wording but a good reads Digest definition.
i believe the regulatory law which is the topic of this thread is meant for and would be directed at is for the manufacturer (Garmin) or a potential seller of the product (Cabelas or Bass Pro). I don't think anyone would care if you used them here. You might get burned at the border if a very thorough guard did some on the spot research and decided to detain the unit from being brought into Canada, but I would bet they would be more interested in your booze and tobacco. As far as anyone in Industry Canada taking the time to go through their legal dept to swear out an information and take you to federal court over a dog collar, I think the chances of that happening are about as remote as someone arresting you for copying a protected VHS movie.
It sounds like Snowwalker is a dog collar detective
