I hate paying but where I go paying is the easiest. ANY parks (provincial or national) seem to patrol a lot more for people not paying. I do a lot of my shooting in these areas and paying is so much easier.
That being said in areas outside of parks and more rural you can find some great places. Sometimes you will get a visitor to see what you are doing but I pull out a business card and explain and they are usually happy for me to stay.
In the town that I live in the local arena is popular in the summer with people in everything up to $750,000 class A's. I also use truck stops and Walmarts. Sometimes a truck stop is closer to where I want to be then any camping spot. PLUS truckers generally are not partying all night.
