I'll be the first to guess.... LOL

I'd say it all stays. He would just use the priority points as a non-resident on things he is allowed to hunt.

I'm sure I'll be corrected. :)

When I moved I kept my priorities but now hunt as a non resident I can only hunt certain animals, for example I cant hunt mulie does or cow moose as a non resident

Also I am limited to certain zones for some animals such as moose I am unable to apply in many of the southern zones.

If you only plan to be out of province for a few years I think you would be able to maintain priority or even further your priority by 999ing your draws online. I am now a bc resident but I still have my win card and could probably hand in for draws to build priority if I choose to ever move back but I feel like that is a little unfair for the resident albertans that are putting their time in and waiting.
With all the hunting we have here I don’t feel the need to double dip. If I ever decide to move back I’ll just pick up where I left off.

I don't think you asked this but, your son is considered a non resident for at least six months after moving to BC.
When it comes to BC Hunter Number and Big Game Lic.
