Geography:
1. Outside in fields or forests, where no one is around on special areas with insurance for the players, such as action commando, a paintball field in Montreal. It is frowned upon and illegal in most cases to just play in the woods behind your house.
2. Inside paintball arenas
3. There are no 'airsoft only' buildings, there are no companies in Canada that will insure airsoft only fields, the price is too high, and it is in a grey area in Canada, it’s not illegal, but it’s not legal.
4. Factories (for example the mill in Montreal) always played on private property, never on public property (usually the buildings are owned by paintball or a fellow airsofter).
In Canada they are not allowed to have official airsoft buildings because of the fact that airsoft is not an accepted sport. Therefore the price to have the place for this sport is very, very high. The sport is not an illegal sport; it is just not accepted in Canada. The government decided not ban it completely to make the airsofters happy, but that also decided to make it very hard to play.
