I've heard that it is illeagal to own a garter snake in BC and Alberta for some reason. does anyone know the truth to this? I've been told to check my bylaws.

If you don't get a quick answer or are not satisfied with the answer you receive, you could e-mail the authorities at the Canadian Wildlife Service and ask about the laws. Here's a link, that has contact info:
