northern ontario

i dont know if any of you has been but Is it just me or is Aviation law enforcement for this area extremly laxed. I went skiing the other day on a hill that was far less than 500 feet high and the airplane was clearly well below it, even though aircraft around this area and later that day were higher. it was not close enough to any airport that they could be on a final and they continued at this height for a while. It was really neat though for me to see such a low pass.
