It used to be and probably still is that river sluices are prohibited in British Columbia*. Other parts of Canada probably follow suit...a dredge needs a sluice so.....


*I originally garnered this info from a very popular but now closed Canadian gold forum, GPEX. It's founder passed and apparently no one was willing to maintain the site. Too bad as it was a favorite of mine.
