Question BowHunting Permit

Just wondering if a PDF copy of your permits on your smart phone would be good enough for the F&W officers or would they still need to see the paper copy? Don't know if this has been asked before or not. The thought just hit me and thought it would be a nice way to go paperless.

What name would you like it to say? Do you want to be older or younger?

I don't get the first response but I believe BC accepts PDF versions of fishing licenses. They definitely should in Alberta if they don't already.

I don't think it will work as an equivalent....you have to be careful what documents you store on your phone to show to LEO's.....they can subpoena your phone for evidence and you may lose it for a long time....
