Boating in Canada?
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 |

They use the same facilities as the power boaters use. They can also help pay for those facilities. On some rivers you have a hard time launching a boat as the kayakers have decided to load the kayaks at the ramp. |

If " security on the water " means identifying marker buoys, having the proper safety gear, common courtesy, and rules of the road, so to speak, then that would be correct. A exam for a 12 year old, is quite different for , say, a 40 year old. A 12 year old is restricted in power, a 40 year old is not. |

Yes, it is another tax in Canada. Next is tubes and water wings.
Canada is bleeding red ink, on the verge of bankruptcy so it will tax everything that isn't on the moon. It is a real shame actually, Canada once was or could have been a world class country but after the massive mismanagment of Canada it has turned to what it is now. And that is a shame. Do you know that more than 85% of a working man's income is returned to the govt in Canada? Now CPP has been penalized and turned back to 70. No, wait and see, boaters will get hit harder and harder until Canada finally collapses. Boggles the mind actually, Canada will spend more money just accounting, collecting, wasting the money it brings in from the new taxes for kayaks and canoes. It will cost the taxpayer's 7 times the value it will bring in. That is fact and that is Canada. Ya, it is a shame. Oh ya, the 60 dollars for the boating examination (which is basically a tax) I was looking for a website with the tests. I have had it grandfathered to me but my friends want to take the course and pay the tax. good luck "BF" wrote in message ... " Tuuk" wrote in message ...

What I can't understand is why he hasn't been charged with manslaughter even though it happened last summer and 27 empty beer cans were found on his boat. I would not doubt he had the required pleasure craft certificate. I think linking drivers license infractions with boating enfractions, as a unified motor vehicle strategy is the beast I have heard of. So DWI in a boat means the same thing on your record and insurance as DWI in a car. Ditto speeding, careless use etc. -- Socialism is a great ideal as long as someone else pays for it. And when no one is left to pay for it, they all can share nothing. |

No, Bob , you are wrong.
And when it comes to boating, in Canadian waters, you cold be Dead Wrong. Why would you speak negatively about those speaking negatively about Canada enoromous and greedy and bankrupt taxation system? Do you like returning 85% of your income back to the govt? Do you have an income? COme on Bob, what I wanted was some links to the boating exam study and question and preparing pages. I figured tried and true boaters would know the best links. Bob, you are right, one can go to any of the thousands of taxpayed govt websites, one can pay the tax many many places, that is not what I want. I wanted information. Sad to see those so stuck on taxes like you Bob. Are you a teacher? Stuck on govt dole? Part of the problem but thinks their are god's gift? Civil servant? It is interesting to hear you civil servants defent Canada's massive taxation system. And have no idea what is going on. Hey, Bob, you know Canada is heading towards bankruptcy don't you? Way to go Bob. "Bob" wrote in message ... On Feb 28, 6:00 am, " Tuuk" wrote: Hi Are there any links for the boating exam that aren't all just scams?
