Crime 1. an act or the commission of an act that is forbidden or the omission of a duty that is commanded by a public law and that makes the offender liable to punishment by that law; especially : a gross violation of law 2. a grave offense especially against morality 3. criminal activity <efforts to fight crime> 4. something reprehensible, foolish, or disgraceful <it's a crime to waste good food> Violation 2. a breach or infringement, as of a law or promise. When you do not abide by the Fish and Wildlife Conservation Act (provincial) and Fishery Act (federal), you breach or infringed a law (violation) that is punishable by the law (crime). Thus, it satisfies the definition of a crime. Poaching is a crime according to the MNR http://www.mnr.gov.on.ca/en/Business/Let...66028.html "Poaching is a serious and costly crime. It robs ethical anglers and hunters of game and fish, and robs all citizens of our valuable wildlife resources. Poaching can be reduced if concerned citizens report the signs of suspected illegal activity." **Note: serious violations against the Fishery Act can be charged and tried under the Criminal Code in certain instances and it can leave a criminal record if found guilty. http://www.admiraltylaw.com/fisheries/Pa...ations.htm **Note: Sentencing is often case dependent.
