What is the definition of a "non-resident" hunter in Ontario?

The definition of a "non-resident" hunter in Ontario accurately reflects an individual who does not reside in the province but seeks to hunt there. This distinction is essential because hunting regulations and license requirements can vary significantly between residents and non-residents. Non-residents typically require specific permits and may have different bag limits or seasonal restrictions compared to local hunters.

The other definitions do not capture this specific criterion. For instance, a hunter from Canada could be a resident of Ontario and may not require the same permits as a non-resident. Similarly, an individual who resides in Ontario would be classified as a resident hunter, not a non-resident. A visitor who hunts occasionally may also be a non-resident, but without the context of seeking to hunt, the description lacks clarity and precision. Therefore, option C effectively encapsulates the official definition used in the context of hunting regulations in Ontario.
