Ontario Hunting License Practice Exam

Question: 1 / 400

During what periods can a firearm be loaded and not encased in an area inhabited by game?

Any time outside of the designated night hours

A firearm can be loaded and not encased outside of designated night hours because during daylight hours, there is a higher likelihood of encountering game and it is important to have the firearm ready for potential dangers. While a hunter may choose to load an encased firearm while stationary in a blind, it is not required and there may be situations where a firearm needs to be quickly accessible outside of a blind. And while it is a best practice to always encase a firearm for safety reasons, it is not a legal requirement except during designated night hours. Other times of day, it is up to the hunter's discretion whether to encase the firearm or not.
