Not according to the Firearms Act.

Thank you as well.
Man, this one is almost as tiresome as "you can bring 5000 rounds in from the States."

Having flesh of game kept over from one season to the next.
Same with fish--having fillets in the freezer then going out and getting another catch.

....confusing Provincial regs with Federal laws (ie: Provincial Offense Act/FWCA/HTA with Criminal Code/Firearms Act). The latter may land you in jail while the former is a fine (usually).
If a tree falls on your ex in the woods and nobody hears it,you should probably still get rid of your chainsaw. Just sayin'....

Well would you look at that! This one is new to me!
So it's illegal for me to have moose or deer in my freezer for more than a year?
How is it one careless cigarette can cause a forest fire, but it takes a whole box of matches to light a campfire?

Perfectly legal to do in Ontario.
I’m suspicious of people who don't like dogs, but I trust a dog who doesn't like a person.

I did not know that. Could you provide more detail please. Not that I will ever bag enough grouse or ducks to have then in my freezer for more than a few months, but this reg seems odd. Is the issue possession limits or spoilage or?????

Agreed, I am referring to storage at end of the day.

I would like to hear more about this as well.
Unless you are just talking about possession limits for birds, fish, small game.
