i.e.: It is illegal to fish for and keep sturgeon on the Ontario side of the Ottawa River. It is legal to keep one sturgeon in season on the Quebec side of the river. You'd be rightly slapped with a fine for keeping one in Quebec then crossing back into Ontario and having it in your possession while fishing the river.

But in the freezer or stored in the house or car also counts as possession. The odds for a CO actually going to your house to check when they have no reason to are zilch. Still would be interested to hear what the Ministry has to say about this.
