Our friend has seen this truck all over the place while out hunting.
This farmer was convinced that this guy was a wildlife officer and felt compelled to let him on.
This guy is an Alberta Conservation Association employee.
Either way our friend moved on to other places but geez...
Is this allowed??
I know nothing about this, never ran into it because we hunt public lands but wow...
Anyone else ever run into this?? We never have yet.

Maybe he was actually "working" when your friend saw the truck in the area?
If he wasn't "actually working "(ie.driving a company truck)...that issue should to be taken to his supervisor.
In any event, the landowner can either allow/deny access as he/she wishes...regardless of the person's occupation. Up to them...
