Donald Trump Jr. was in Prince George, B.C., Wednesday afternoon, sitting in the airport restaurant during a layover.

The son of U.S. President Donald Trump told CBC he was on "vacation" and declined to answer further questions.

However, the mayor of Fort Nelson in remote northeast B.C. said he'd been told the president's son had been in his community on his way to the mountains, though he hadn't seen him personally.

"He had no business with the municipality," Mayor Bill Streeper said. "I think on this kind of thing, they do like their quiet time."

The timing of the visit coincides with a hunting trip planned by Trump Jr.'s friend Jason Hairston.

In February 2017, Hairston told CNN that he was friends with Trump Jr. and the pair were planning a summer hunting trip.

On July 28, Hairston posted a video to Facebook revealing he was going stone sheep hunting in northeast B.C., though he made no mention of Trump Jr. and the president's son declined to confirm whether he had accompanied Hairston on the trip.

Hairston is a former NFL linebacker and founder of the outdoors company Kuiu, which specializes in ultralight hunting gear and clothing.

The president's son is an established big game enthusiast, attracting controversy in 2012 after photos of him and his brother Eric posing with a dead elephant and other animals were posted online by activists.

He has told followers on Twitter that his favourite North American hunting experience is mountain sheep.

Meet the ex-NFL player dressing Trump's sons for hunting

At 24 years old, Jason Hairston thought he had made a life for himself in the NFL. Then a neck injury ended a career that included playing for the San Francisco 49ers and Denver Broncos.

Forced to start over, Hairston fell back on his lifelong passion for hunting.

As he spent more time in the mountains, he became increasingly frustrated with the gear he was forced to wear. It was too noisy, too heavy or simply the wrong color.

"We felt like we couldn't be the only ones that wished we had better performing products," Hairston said.
That's when he founded the hunting clothing brand, Sitka. After early success, Sitka ran into trouble when the economy crashed in 2008. The company was sold, and Hairston had to start over again — for a second time.

He launched another hunting gear brand, Kuiu, in 2010. Drawing on his experience from Sitka, he set out to create high quality performance gear sold directly to customers.

They basically sell overpriced Patagonia knockoffs made with camouflage materials. The biggest decision their deep pocket customers have to make is what camouflage pattern they 'need'.

Not only is he out of the country but he seems to be headed to a remote destination.

He doesn't kill for any reason other than he gets pleasure from taking the lives of living creatures (and enjoys abusing the corpse). He is one sick person from a sick, perverted family.
