Deer Hunting Season

(KINCARDINE, ON.) Deer hunting season is currently in full swing in Bruce County, open from the 2nd to the 7th of November (including Saturday). Over that six days properly licensed hunters may hunt for deer with rifles, shotguns, bows or muzzle loaders, however they may not utilize dogs.

During this period South Bruce OPP notes a significant increase in Trespass to Property Act (T.P.A.) complaints. Such complaints have already been received (Day 1) and charges have been laid. Hunters are reminded that their hunting licence in no way gives them the right to enter or cross private property without permission. To avoid problems and potential charges hunters are reminded to ask for permission before entering a property and obey posted signs and symbols.
