Everything a New Hunter Needs: Non-Restricted PAL with a Hunting Seminar and a CORE Challenge
The BC Hunting Package
Completing this Canadian Firearms Safety Course (CFSC) is required to apply for your non-restricted PAL (Possession Acquisition License).
This is the federal license to own and use firearms in Canada.
The BC Hunting Seminar is a day of engaging discussion with an experienced hunter culminating with a CORE Challenge exam . You will feel confident in your ability to safely start hunting. You can then apply for your FWID to hunt in BC.
The FWID is the provincial certification that lets you buy hunting licenses and tags.
This enhanced learning experience offers 8-hour in-person Hunting Seminar and access to our online CORE Training Course. This is a great opportunity to get everything you need to be a safe, successful and competent hunter in BC. Challenge the CORE with confidence.
This is a 1-day course which includes the PAL exam. The test is comprised of a true/false – multiple choice written and a practical handling section.
This CFSC covers non-restricted firearms only and will not satisfy the RCMP requirements for restricted firearms licensing.
