Ontario Man Fined for Illegally Camping Too Long on Crown Land
Ryan Robichaud was fined $2,500 for camping beyond the 21-day limit and littering on Crown land, violating rules meant to protect public access and the environment, officials said.
- Yesterday, a North Bay resident was convicted of failing to vacate public lands after the twenty-one-day limit and unlawfully depositing litter, fined $2,500.
- The ministry says Crown land campers may remain for twenty-one days before moving, but Robichaud camped beyond that period in Stewart Township.
- Investigating public lands, officers discovered a camper trailer on Crown land off Notman Road in Stewart Township, surrounded by litter.
- Ontario's Ministry of Natural Resources fined Robichaud $2,500, saying enforcing camping and litter rules safeguards public lands.
- Under provincial law, depositing litter on Crown land is prohibited, as Justice of the Peace Madeleine Paul presided over the case in the Ontario Court of Justice on April 24, 2025.
