Temporary foreign workers can fish in Alberta, they just can't keep any.

If you don't believe me read the regulations.

Where in the regs does it say that? I just looked and could not find any specific regs for non resident from outside Canada other than not being able to export fish.

I know not all tfw's are stupid but...

I ran into one last year, we were chatting for a bit as he was fishing. ( How i know he was a tfw)
Turns out he thought catch and release meant you catch, kill the fish, then release it back into the water.
Not kidding.

Unless I missed it or there is something in the printed regs that is not in the online regs.

I haven't had a chance to look for this specifically but I'm not sure why it would be that way if they paid for their WIN and license like everyone else

All they'd have to do is read the regulations to find out...:thinking-006:
