Hi
Are there any links for the boating exam that aren't all just scams? Links
that would help learn the rules and regulation that my govt in Canada
keeps adding, changing, charging taxes for, etc etc.


With the new taxes on canoes and kayaks the Canadian govt means business
this year on the water. They are mandated to collect so much taxes so I
want to be prepared and have all my licenses and boating exam and fishing
licenses and proper vessel licenses. There are so many new taxes now I am
simply confused. And there will always be one that is forgotten and hence
the ticket.


Looking for an online resource to help me learn what will be in the
canadian boating examination. thanks


Are you serious. Canoes and Kayaks.

I haven't heard this.You see, I operate a real Boat, so I only know
what I have to do related to Boat Operation.I never knew they
Licensed, or taxed Canoes and Kayaks.You need to have the Boat
registered to you, have an Operators Card, and have all Safety Gear on
board, according to the size of your Boat. You will find the needed
info in the Study Guide. It's not free, either.

Sorry, but you will never find out what is in the Exam. You have to
read the Study Guide, and just do the exam.I've done it, but won't
tell you whats there. Sounds to me like you want to " cheat " your way
through.Too bad.


I assume that all of these new regulations and taxes are Canada's means
to a balanced budget and full employment, and will do nothing to the
absolute safety of a person on the water operating a boat.
