Re: Driving in Canada

In order for them to return your old license, it is my understanding that they keep it in an archive somewhere.

If privacy laws keep provincial officers from calling to check, well guess what.

Re: Area suggestions!

Collingwood is way too far to commute to TO every day, especially in winter.

Don't worry about those two, just deeply unhappy grumpy old farts whose major mission in life is to attack anyone who says one positive thing about Canada.
