The official regulations have the final word

These dates come from rows a person checked against the Ministère de l'Environnement, de la Lutte contre les changements climatiques, de la Faune et des Parcs's regulations, but bag limits, licences, draws, legal hours and closures are set there and can change during the season. Read them before you hunt.

HuntGrid isn't affiliated with the Ministère de l'Environnement, de la Lutte contre les changements climatiques, de la Faune et des Parcs. A season shows here only once a person has checked it; others may exist.
