Do a hunters course,send your certificate and application to RCMP,they do a background check and you get your licence in the post mate,no land permission needed as theres 937,000 square kilometers of crown land in Ontario alone,87% of the province is public use. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

My mates favourite words "if it's brown it's going down " So they are being sold as hunting plots ? Probably set up big canvas square tent as digs for the season until you able to make something,some of these plots you need to fly in and out ? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
