Default City and town limits

Can anyone tell me if you can hunt within city limits Calgary or Edmonton if you are in the farm country outside the residential areas or do you need to be outside the city limits

In Calgary you cannot even discharge a pellet gun within city limits.

sorry wwbirds, but you CAN hunt inside of the city limits of Calgary with a bow, on farm. just as long as you only hunt on land thathave permission and don't hunt with in 200 yards of any house, that you don;t have permission.
newell call fish and wildlife and find out for your self . thats what I did.

My understanding is that it gets pretty complicated around Edm...so (as suggested) the best bet is probably to discuss it at some length with the F&W folks.

There are bylaws in effect for discharging firearms within city limits. Some cities and towns do not have a bow under the definition of a firearm. I know there are some towns that u can infact hunt in town limits without the hassel of a $50 bylaw ticket.
