Here it is in black and white(I added the bolding on the applicable words)

Wildlife Act
Section 38 of the Wildlife Act specifies that no person shall hunt wildlife or discharge firearms on or over occupied lands, or enter onto such lands for the purpose of doing so without the consent of the owner or occupant.


Yes by letting your shot fall on lands you do not have permission on is illegal.
Will you get busted for it every time, well most likely not, but someday in the wrong place some landowner who may have a good knowledge of the law may take you to task. Would'nt that be a PITA.
Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa.
Yes l know it states that in the regs , but its mostly applies to rifles or horizontal shooting , l,m in the ditch shooting straight up , so l,m not discharging a firearm on his land or over it , if the odd pellet lands on the other side of the fence on the way down, well ok , but the judge will laugh and throw it out of court.
What if l spit out my chaw tabaki over the fence on his land , is that tresspassing too ?
