Shooting Fine A Terrace Bay woman has been fined 1000 dollars after pleading guilty to shooting a deer from a roadway in October. Donna Parise was met by conservation officers off Villeneuve Road in Kenora after they'd received a report of a high powered rifle been discharged on the road. Parise said she fired a single shot at a deer from the centre of the road but believed she had missed. Parise's Rifle was seized and will be returned upon payment of the $1000 fine. The Ministry of Natural Resources reminds hunters it is illegal to shoot from, down or across a public road.

Here is a link to recent discussion on this. http://z4.invisionfree.com/The_Hunting_For...showtopic=28301 I think any maintained road other than crown land logging roads are public roads. |

Well are all public roads not on crown land? Ok so to my understanding and I may be wrong but Crown land is owned by the government and the government is the people who would be you and me and anyone else that is reading this or the general public There for crown land logging roads are public roads as the public, ultimately owns them As for that link you provided I have read it and I must have missed the legal definition of the term “road” The term “publicly traveled right of way” has an extremely large meaning lets say an ice road, being on the water means its public so does this mean no one can have a loaded firearm on that water way? So now everyone has to be 33 feet from the high water level? See my point ? Hence my question what is the legal definition of a road

I think this applies to any right of way for public vehicular traffic. Basically maintained roads in rural townships with predominantly private land in unit 10. There have been quite a few rural residents getting fed up with road hunters and hunters posting on roads. This pretty much elliminates that. Logging roads are not included in this. No real significant change except a little more protection for land owners and farmers in the area. From MNR website.
