The Fish and Wildlife Conservation Act Falconry The new Fish and Wildlife Conservation Act sets out new rules for falconry, or hawking, in Ontario.
The new Act comes into force on January 1, 1999, and enables the Ministry of Natural Resources (MNR) to provide sound management of the province's fish and wildlife well into the next century. It replaces the Game and Fish Act, that last underwent major changes in 1980.
Falconry involves the use of trained birds of prey for activities that range from hunting for sport to controlling nuisance birds at airports.
Birds that may be used for falconry
There are two categories of bird that may be kept in captivity for falconry: "Falconry Birds" that are species of birds native to Ontario, and "Non-indigenous Falconry Birds" that are birds not native to Ontario.
"Falconry Birds" means:
Bald eagle (Haliaeetus leucocephalus) Golden eagle (Aquila chrysaetos) Peregrine falcon (Falco peregrinus) Northern goshawk (Accipiter gentilis) Gyrfalcon (Falco rusticolus) Northern harrier (Circus cyaneus) Broad-winged hawk (Buteo platypterus) Cooper's hawk (Accipiter cooperii) Red-shouldered hawk (Buteo lineatus) Red-tailed hawk (Buteo jamaicensis) Sharp-shinned hawk (Accipiter striatus) American kestrel (Falco sparverius) Merlin (Falco columbarius) Great horned owl (Bubo virginianus) Northern hawk owl (Surnia ulula) Snowy owl (Nyctea scandiaca) You need a falconry licence (apprentice, general, or commercial) to keep falconry birds in captivity. You will also need a valid small game hunting licence to hunt with these birds. All birds must be banded, and you must maintain a log book and submit an annual report on each bird.
"Non-indigenous Falconry Birds" means:
Prairie falcon Saker falcon Lanner falcon Lagger falcon Harris' hawk Feruginous hawk Swainson's hawk Bonelli's eagle European kestrel European sparrow-hawk Tawny eagle Steppe eagle You do not need a falconry licence to keep non-indigenous falconry birds. However, if you use them for hunting, you must have a valid small game hunting licence. All birds must also be banded, and you must keep a record of the origin of the bird, a log book as specified by the Ministry.
General falconry licence
To use falconry birds for hunting, you must have a general falconry licence and a small game hunting licence. You may keep up to three falconry birds.
You qualify for a general falconry licence if you have kept a bird of prey for at least two years during the past five years. You must submit an affidavit with your licence application stating how long you have kept a bird of prey, and you must apply by April 1, 1999.
Apprentice falconry licence
If you are new to falconry, you must apprentice yourself to an experienced falconer, and obtain an apprentice falconry licence and a small game hunting licence. You must undergo at least 30 hours of instruction in falconry over a period of 15 months, including two Octobers. You may keep one bird, and must have the proper facilities and equipment to handle a falconry bird. You may obtain a list of apprenticeship sponsors from your MNR district office or the Ontario Hawking Club.
Commercial falconry licence
To breed falconry birds, you must have a commercial falconry licence and a small game hunting licence. You may keep as many birds as you wish under the authority of this licence. You qualify for a commercial falconry licence if you have been breeding birds of prey for at least two years during the past five years, or have been keeping birds of prey for the past five years. You must submit an affidavit with your licence application stating how long you have been breeding birds of prey, and you must apply by April 1, 1999.
Exercising birds during the closed season
If you exercise a falconry bird or other bird of prey during the closed hunting season, you must make every effort to ensure the bird does not kill wildlife.
Non-resident falconry
If you do not live in Ontario, you may bring properly banded falconry birds to hunt in Ontario. Before coming to Ontario, fax or mail a letter to the District Manager of the MNR district where you intend to hunt. The letter should identify your name and address, name the wildlife management units (WMUs) in which you will hunt, and provide the identification and band numbers of the birds with which you will be hunting. To hunt, you need a copy of the returned letter bearing MNR's approval , a non-resident small game hunting licence, and a migratory bird permit, if applicable. You should refer to the annual hunting summary to determine the WMU number and the address of the appropriate district office.

Princejellyfish can you use your power of being able to read one of these government sites to pull up the same list for British Columbia? Although it would be a short lasting list as we (the BC Falconry Association) are still nagotiating with them on the new regs. One thing the goverment wants is blood samples to do dna research on all passage gyrs. Thye want some dumb SH!@t we were willing to go with dna on passage peales.
