For some reason a couple times coming back into Canada I have been asked if carrying bear spray. I asked about that and was told if I was it would be seized. I find that funny because one can go into the nearest sporting goods store and buy bear spray.
They may have been asking if you had a pepper spray, like Mace which is forbidden, not bear spray.
When we crossed we were asked if we had any pepper spray. We had a 3" cylinder which was labeled 'Dog Repellent' which we carried when biking. The agent closely examined the label and apologized but said "I'm very sorry but I will have to take this". It was no big deal as I think at the time it cost a couple bucks.
