Bear bear....In Eastern Canada it's not so much an issue ....I used to plant trees in North-Western British Columbia and Alberta a million years ago, and Grizzlys are generally not an issue....Now Northern Canada is a different story, but by large, not an issue either. Bear proof canisters for food, bear spray, no food, toothpaste , and other treats in tents, and well, I guess if you are worried a firearm permit and hunting permit if in season (I'll trade my reheated home made dehydrated buttered chicken for a fresh geese or caribou anytime !!) could take care of the issue.
As far as the rest, i'm open as I said. Never thought about the TCAT, but then again, I have been working and living in Northern Canada for a while, that I didn't even think of looking at my own backyard !
