long have I been familiar with the exactitudes of the English language....but no.. I’m not familiar with your term sectional or it’s relative connection with my question.
Sorry, I should have been a little more helpful initially. I was on my phone with spotty reception.
Basically, in Canada, we have quite restrictive rules for flying our UAV's. You can read the laws here:

There are supposedly even harsher rules on the way, including the requirement for a lot of liability insurance.
My reference to the
sectionals was to show you that knowing the rules and interpreting where you can fly on the official maps is quite difficult.
The National Research Council has put together a map of restricted flying space that is pretty helpful:
UAV Site Selection Tool - National Research Council Canada
Unfortunately, it's not mobile friendly, but it will give you an idea of what you're up against. Also note though, that this map is not from the official body - NavCanada - and therefore doesn't show the smaller private aerodromes that limit our flying options even further.
Where I live when I'm in Canada there are 6 overlapping no-fly zones. I have to drive at least 20km away to fly legally at all. For this reason, I rarely fly here. Instead, I fly while traveling in the USA, Europe and Asia.
I know that this is frustrating news when all you want to do is take a little flight over your house, but that's the current reality.
