ahh that's where you Americans have a huge advantage. We cannot just drive a unit onto government land unless it is designated for "camping" and in that case it is called a recreation area or some other name and there are rules and fees of some sort... Sometimes they are free. Otherwise, you're limited to provincial or private campgrounds.
Maybe Ontario is different.
Ontario is *very* different, all public land, Federal or Provincial land is open to camping unless specifically prohibited. This is usually just environmental lands, wildlife preserves and that sort of thing. It is also open to off-roading, in fact multi-day ATV / SxS trips and camping on public land is a very popular pastime here.
ya the law is similar here, they just prohibit it in most places haha. How are the provincial sites going to make money if people are just going to crown land? Plus, all the forestry companies ban it on their lease land until they're done in that area. and if you're in a national or provincial parks, it is all banned except in campgrounds, which is most of BC.... well anywhere you can get to with a vehicle anyways haha
