Has too much time on their hands
Seems that a few people here are letting their feelings get in the way of the facts.
Comedy gold. Someone correctly answers a question regarding trespassing laws and then is accused of advising new hunters to trespass.

Right?!
Evidently reading comprehension is no longer important.

I've read all the posts, and it's clear, both sides are answering different questions.
Bluebulldog is answering ... what does the law say about trespassing. And what the law says is what will count in court. Even being charged by an officer is not good enough, it's about what is held up in court. Lots of charges get dropped in courts because officers make mistakes (or are grumpy sometimes).
Canadaman30 is asking, what's the correct way to legally AND ethically enter land. Correct does not imply that you simply adhere to laws ... our laws are far too incomplete to provide ethical guidance. You shouldn't be coming out and swearing at your neighbor every morning just because there's no law that says you can't! So, yes, in fact what you have discovered is that the laws are not good, not clear enough, and maybe not fair. Of course the ethical way is to do your homework, find out who's land it is and seek permission, maybe bring a carrot cake along too!

What I have been stating all along, is that landowners ( and I am one) are quick to point out where the TPA needs to be addressed, yet some forget that it wasn't written with the FWCA in mind.
The OP was referencing a bush parcel up North, either owned by IO, or OPG, but doesn't meet the criteria as stated under the act.
Right on.
