Fenn traps, and all copycat designs such as those by Springer and Solway, were made illegal to catch stoats from 1 April 2020, because tests have shown that they fail to kill stoats reliably within the time-frame required by AIHTS (45 seconds).

Gray Foxes are protected under the Ontario Endangered Species Act (2008), which also protects the Gray Fox's habitat. Hunting and trapping guidelines in Ontario and Quebec state that foxes trapped accidentally must be released if they're alive.
Foxes are definitely hard to catch in a live trap - you need a much larger one than you'd expect. Leg hold traps are your best bet - depending where you live you may need a licensed trapper to set them.
