Have used similar (although a little less flashy) and it worked fine.

Since it was purchased locally I imagine it was legal usually only rigs that are designed to catch more than one fish at a time are banned.
 
Aly1969, it’s good that you’re making sure of legal fishing gear, but asking on social media won’t be nearly as useful as going straight to the regs. There, you’ll find that single barbless hooks are the law in all rivers in BC.
Here’s the link:
Look at Region 4 info for the Columbia at Castlegar. Also check the provincial level info (where the BC river single barbless hook reg is stated).
Good luck!
