A first-time hunter is a hunter who 1) has not previously held a hunting licence in Alberta or elsewhere, or 2) has not prior to April 1, 2010, met Alberta first-time hunter criteria, or 3) has not successfully completed a hunter education course in Alberta or elsewhere.

Non-resident and non-resident alien hunters (12 years of age or older) are exempt from the first-time hunter eligibility requirement if they are accompanied by a Hunter Host or a Designated Guide while hunting in Alberta.

This is so poorly worded...I am still trying to understand what they mean here.

What actually was the criteria for an Alberta first-time hunter prior to April 1, 2010?

Like others have pointed out. “Or” means one OR the other.
