No,they don't as long as they're merely along for the ride and not participating in the hunt,but,they're allowed to help field dress,drag a deer out or,in the case of upland and waterfowl,retrieve birds. I took my kids out and now my grandkids without any issue whatsoever.

Exactly, it is no different than anyone just going for a walk in the bush.

How many bird watchers or nature hikers are charged with illegal hunting?
I see no difference, your kid is just there, they are not hunting, they are observing nature and maybe snapping a picture or two.

I know its a silly rule, i remember being out with my dad when i was just 6 or 7.

You missed part of that regulation when quoting it.

As well, how old were the kids???

If they are under 12 they can't be charged with anything anyways...

Some of you better seek info from a CO . Your certainly not getting the correct answers here.

Sez you from New Brunswick. I'm not sure your provincial regs are anything like ours in Ontario from what I'm told. Are you even allowed to hunt in the Liberal end of Canada? LOL

I just moved to NB last year .lived in Windsor Ontario Since 1979. I still own a farm in Harrow, Ontario, and had a controlled hunt tag every year since 96. I contacked a CO one year because I had an ankle operation and could only walk with crutches. " I asked if I killed a buck could I get any body to help drag the deer. NO,unless they had a controlled tag. dragging ,butchering is considered in the definition as hunting. Brent.
