A fluorescent orange garment is compulsory

All hunters engaged in hunting, guides or other individuals accompanying them must wear in a way that is visible at all times and from any angle a fluorescent orange garment that covers at least 2 580 continuous cm² (400 square inches) of the wearer's back, shoulders and chest. They must ensure that the garment remains visible at all times and from any angle, even when they are carrying a backpack.

However, the garment is not compulsory in the following cases:

• when hunting American crow, wild turkey, rock dove or migratory birds;
• when hunting white-tailed deer or black bear during the season in which only bow or crossbow hunting is permitted;
• when hunting frogs or when snaring hares and eastern cottontail rabbits;
• when hunting coyotes, wolves and foxes (silver, patched or red) from December 1 to March 31;
• when hunting small game with a bird of prey, when no participant possesses an arm;
• when hunting using a bow or crossbow in a hunting sector reserved exclusively for bows or crossbows in a wildlife territory and when all the hunters are using a bow or crossbow while hunting in a sector of an outfitting operation with exclusive hunting rights.
