Tough new laws will deter trespassing.
How we're Itelphig

or nearly 150 years Ontario has
.had a law making it an offence to
enter property where entry is
prohibited. But now new legislation —
The Trespass to Property Act—has
toughened up the law to protect
your rights.
Trespassers can now be fined up to •
$1,000. In addition, they can be ordered
to pay for damages they have caused.
An important part of the legislation
designates premises where entry is
prohibited without notice. These
include your gardens, orchards,
vineyards, land under cultivation,
woodlots and fenced land.
Where notice must be given to
prohibit entry, you may use red
markings on gates, trees or fences.
Yellow markings may be used to caution
that only certain activities may be
permissible. It is the responsibility of
the -visitor to find out what you permit.
LAND USED FOR RECREATION
In the past, there was a great deal of
confusion regarding your responsibility
to people you allow on your land.
Consequently many farmers and rural
landholders would not allow recreational
activities on their properties.
Now another new act—The Occupiers'
Liability Act — reduces your responsi-
bility. In a nutshell, the law assumes
that those who take their recreation on
most rural land without paying a fee
will take care for their own safety.
A special system has been devised
to allow you to easily indicate which
activities you will allow on your
property. A sign naming or graphically
representing an activity (for example,
hiking) indicates that the activity is
permitted. The same kind of sign with
an oblique stroke through it means
that you prohibit the activity.
These new laws are part
of a continuing program to
streamline our legislation.
By clarifying your rights,
they afford you greater
protection from trespass
and also reduce your
liability when you make
land available for
recreational purposes.
