Default Licence Question

as i understand it I would be a non resident and have to pay 58 dollars but
one spot on the site says 61 dollars
kind of confusing. but here in BC you only have to purchase a licence not an
outdoors card alberta has
the same thing it is a wildlife id number or WIN card
i think its like eight bucks for five years and is a great idea
no fumbling for anything when you renew your licence
being here in BC and having lived in Alberta i have only run into CO's three
times in twenty years so the money they are collecting is being spent
elsewhere

the same would apply in Ontario 21 dollars a
year for a resident and 58 dollars a year for a
non resident


Except for the fact that in Ontario non-resident means out of
country,whereas in BC,Quebec and Saskatchewan it stands for out of
province.In other words an angler from any province can fish in Ont
without having to pay a surplus.

Perhaps Ontario should return the favour.Who knows,with the extra
revenue gained,maybe I'll even run into an MNR officer enforcing the
regs more than once every 20 years.I realise that the waters surrounding
Hamilton are not exactly high on the priority list,but it would be nice
to see someone checking for licences every now and then.
