In one video recorded Oct. 17, 2007 near Westerose, Foiles held a wounded mallard up to the camera, then moved the head around so it was facing him, the statement said.

"Look at me when I'm talking to you," Foiles said. He wagged the duck's head back and forth, then opened and closed the bird's mouth with his fingers while making quacking sounds, the statement said. He then walked off camera and killed the duck.

Sounds like Elmer Fudd.

With the abundance of water fowl hunting in the U.S., why would anyone want to deal with the regulations of transporting firearms into Canada alone just to hunt there?

May I suggest doing one of a duck looking into the pilot’s window as it flies towards the left seat?

That would be true ‘anatidaephobia!

that’s it? that’s all he did? Its a little weird, but doesn’t seem like it warrants the punishment they handed down.

Canucks said he did more

"Michelle Ferguson, the federal Crown prosecutor in the case, described some of the incidents recorded on Foiles's videos — later discovered by U.S. authorities — that resulted in the charges."

"Making the duck face the camera. Whacking the duck on the head. Placing an empty bullet box on the duck's head. Whacking that on his head. Plugging the nostrils of the duck and holding its beak shut," she said.

tormenting wounded game is wrong,this guys an embarrassment to hunters

There was also this too

"Meanwhile, Foiles is also facing punishment in Illinois for violating hunting laws there. Earlier this year, he pleaded guilty to one count of unlawful sale of wildlife and one count of unlawfully taking migratory game birds.'

Hunters/fishermen we know are careful in their free-range harvests, knowing full well, the future depends on them.
