Are Saskatchewan’s new bear spray laws working?
Disappointed, angered and disgusted is how Saskatoon’s Royal Stevens felt after being a victim of a bear spray attack in mid-October.
On Oct. 16, Stevens and his father were coming home from a road trip and had stopped at a gas station on Fairlight Drive.
As Stevens filled up his car with gas, he overheard some people at the corner of the building joking around and saying, ‘Wouldn’t it be funny if we bear sprayed these guys?’
Moments later, Stevens looked up to see a can of bear spray near his face.
