Transport Canada has been phasing in licensing requirements over the past ten years and as of September 15, 2009, every Canadian (regardless of age) requires a Pleasure Craft Operator Card to operate a recreational motor powered craft in Canada. The legislation applies to all motor powered boats regardless of horsepower or length as well as jetskiis. Proof of competency is required to operate sailboats that are fitted with an auxilliary motor even under sail and to paddle a pleasure craft fitted with a motor even when the motor is turned off.
