Like "Machka", I agree. In British Columbia, it's very easy to find somewhere along most routes to camp free without being hassled.
I've pitched my little tent in all manner of places by the side of the road, such as behind Commercial Company entrance signs, Church lawns, amongst boulevard trees and scrubs, and other roadside business frontage lawns. (I never go into the business private property) I make sure that I'm gone well before business opening, and that I leave absolutely nothing behind. I've had night watchmen come out to chat, curious to know where I've come from and where I'm going, even offering me coffee.
