Saskatchewan Implements New Trespassing Law

The Province says new trespassing laws are set to come into effect January 1st.

The new legislation moves the onus of responsibility from rural landowners to individuals seeking access to their property.

This means anyone wishing access to land for any purpose including recreational will need the landowners consent.

The changes provide legal protection to landowners against property damage and the risk of agricultural diseases, it also limits any
liability that may arise from a trespasser's presence on their property.

Anyone who believes someone is trespassing on their property is urged to contact their local police.
