Default Tag Along With No License

Just wondering if any of you fellas know if it would be legal to bring my wife for a ride in the bush while possibly getting a few grouse, even though she doesn't have a hunting license? Like, she would just be chilling in the truck kind of thing. As she has a broken leg, and wants to tag along with me this weekend.

Thanks guys,

As long as she isn't actively helping you hunt (like pushing bush, etc.) totally legal.

Just ensure that if a CO talks to her she says she is just going for a ride

I have heard of tag along friends getting a ticket for things like having binos around their neck or saying 'WE' are out hunting etc

Dumb, but it happens

Have to be a real low life to give someone a ticket for that

I dont see how she can be hunting without a gun or bow. I wouldn't worry about it as long as you only have the one shotgun.

Thanks guys,
No problem,
Been the guy tagging along with the pack on many times too,
Just don't break away, push bush etc, carry a 300 win mag and tell them you are bird hunting while your buddy is big game hunting...something is fishy about that story....and like I mentioned might get you on the radar for the wrong reason.
