Are hunting licences valid throughout Canada?

As we are on the topic. I am flying to Edmonton next Wednesday to buy a house. I intend at that time to change my drivers licence as to have proof of living there for 6 months prior to the hunt next fall. That will make me a legal resident of Alberta. Do you think I will have to take another safety course?

I f the rules are the same as here you should be able to challenge their test.

I doubt you will need anything but your Ontario hunting licence.

Make sure it is legal to hold two different provincial driver's licences though. I know that here in the NWT they are very scrupulous about proving residency for certain things. You may have to surrender your Ontario driver's licence.

Lots of good hunting in AB within reasonable distance of Edmonchuck. I was in Cold Lake for 9 years and loved it.

I guess when you return to camp next year, you'll be a non-resident and will be paying more for a fishing license?

When you come, also change your OHIP to Alberta health. The number you recieve will be proof of residency as well as you DL. Have you been here before? Good hunting by Drayton Valley, WMU 339. PM me before you leave.

Woody 1948,When you go for your hunting and fishing license here you just go to your local hunting supply store, most Canadian Tire stores have them, (and they also sell rifles here as well) You fill out an application writting your DL, proof of hunting safety from somewhere else, and ususally they will want your Alberta Health number. Fill all that out payan 8 dollar win card fee, and then your concervation fees, then what ever licenses you want.
