I'd carry my DL over my PAL, lol, it's Easyer to get a DL

I lived in Calgary for 2 years when i would visit family here i would have to get a canadian citizen not bc resident license, big cost difference between the 2 licenses so i can understand why they would give you that ticket. it also states you have to have your i.d. on your fishing license. A PAL does not have your address on it so it would not work, its a Canada i.d. not b.c.

[poper]

Hey very true, I just looked and no address, I didn't even think of that.

it also states you have to have your i.d. on your fishing license.

I am looking at my non tidal license (e-license issued) right now, and see no mention of the ID requirement. Where are you seeing that?

. A PAL does not have your address on it so it would not work, its a Canada i.d. not b.c.

If you refer to the Wildlife Act and Regulations that I posted earlier, there is no requirement to produce ID with an address. You are required: (1) to be able to state your name and address and (2) to produce photo ID that was issued by the gov't of Canada or your province of residence. A PAL is Canadian gov't issued ID so it would be acceptable.

This isn't a legal point, but any time you go somewhere these days, whether out for a trail walk with friends or even if you happen to be fishing a crowded, low water area, be sure to carry ID on your person. There are many reasons why from a lot of angles

I always carry my ID on me in case I fall over and die. It'll help people figure out who to notify. Cheery thoughts

Are you the guy I see drinking the water out of mill lake while he's fishing?

Mmmmm - brackish.

You should carry your bc services card. I bumped my head bleeding all over my clothes, as soon as I went to emergency they wouldn't even check me in without it or a credit card. Blood dripping at the checking desk....on the seat... etc..

--I don't like using the PAL for id, don't want to give an excuse for a strip search for weapons. I have a fishing vest made or at least marketed in USA, which has a concealed carry pocket in it. I thought it would be a good place to securely carry a bulky wallet... just don't reach for it to fast in front of people with real guns.

Blair is NO LONGER with us. He was cited for being in violation of FWR section 2.8. The penalty was applied SWIFTLY and JUDICIOUSLY.

Not doubt he is reading this as a guest, and just vibrating.

Just here to say thank you for this, clarki. Unexpected laughs.

[GordJ]

it also states you have to have your i.d. on your fishing license.

I can't find that on either licence, could you show me where it is? Or only Yukon or NWT licences either.

Considering my age and deteriorating "athleticism", I'd say it makes more and more sense every year that goes past.

I think it is time to put this topic to rest....

I was resting quite nicely until you woke me up.

Having worked with people in frequent 'conflict with the law' I can't believe that people would seriously go out without proper ID. Ask any of them for id when required and they don't have any. It's obvious why; negates the phony alias.

If your objective is to be regarded with high suspicion during any contact with Police etc - just continue. I won't even walk around the block without my id.
