New changes announced to pleasure craft operator licenses by Transport Canada.

Highlights Include:
New and renewed pleasure craft licences will only be valid for five years

Current lifetime licences will be gradually replaced with licences that must be renewed every five years.

A $24 service fee will apply to issuing, renewing, transferring, or replacing a Pleasure Craft Licence. This fee will be updated annually for inflation
licence holders must now update their information within 30 days of a change in their name or address, instead of the previous 90 days.

Today, the Honourable Steven MacKinnon, Minister of Transport and Leader of the Government in the House of Commons, announced amendments to the Small Vessel Regulations that will modernize Canada's pleasure craft licensing program and database.
