Indigenous people in Canada are permitted to hunt moose using spotlights at night.
The finding
What remains unresolved
Regulations regarding Indigenous hunting rights, including the use of spotlights at night (often referred to as 'night lighting' or 'lamping'), vary significantly by province, territory, and specific court rulings regarding treaty rights. Whether this is universally permitted is a complex legal issue involving localized wildlife management laws and constitutional protections that differ across Canadian jurisdictions.
