Terry Posted November 27, 2007 Report Share Posted November 27, 2007 ok I tried to get my 3 year card and licenses online..no you can't do that.... yesterday I got the renewal card in the mail so $136.77 later it's back in the mail..wonder how long it will take to get the new one back to me...any bets OK 2006 was the last time they changed the regs, because they couldn't get the 2007 regs. out in time..so they said does anyone think they will have the 2008 regs. out before 2008 before 2009 or maybe just early Feb. 2008... I mean they have had 2 years to get the regs together and up on the website, how hard is it............ there I feel better already Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Pike Posted November 27, 2007 Report Share Posted November 27, 2007 (edited) Sorry Terry, how come you couldn't get your licence and card on-line? Cuz I got my 3 year on-line just last night! Edited November 27, 2007 by Mike Pike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terry Posted November 27, 2007 Author Report Share Posted November 27, 2007 well I tried about a week ago and it would not let me I sent an email and they replied that they were not set up to do next years licenses on line yet so I guess it's ready now...LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Pike Posted November 27, 2007 Report Share Posted November 27, 2007 Ya, give 'er a go Terry. Pretty convenient. You can print out your license right away and stick it in your wallet 'til your card arrives( they say in a couple weeks ). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigfish1965 Posted November 27, 2007 Report Share Posted November 27, 2007 THe new regs are tied up at the Federal level right now. The province finished them awhile ago, but since many of the laws cover two jurisdictions, both levels have to sign off on them. Why is it $137 for you Terry? Should be about $71.

Roy Posted November 27, 2007 Report Share Posted November 27, 2007 Terry I got my 3 year sport lic. online on the 15th of November, prior to going to the BOQ G2G. I'm good till Dec. 31st 2010. It took all of a minute and a half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
irishfield Posted November 27, 2007 Report Share Posted November 27, 2007 Also note anyone with an apostrophy in their last name can't renew on line. They don't have a smart enough programmer apparently to avoid the syntax error that generates. I had to renew by mail last year because they couldn't work around that one (and it's 5 minute programming fix) ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Terry Posted November 27, 2007 Author Report Share Posted November 27, 2007 and it was the 10th of nov. I tried here is the email they sent me Greetings, Unfortunately our systems are not yet set up for renewal, which is why it did not give you the option online. You will receive a renewal package towards the end of the month, and at that time you can go online or on our automated telephone system to renew, and you would get your new card within 20 days.

All that is needed is for the field to aoutmatically parse the apostrophe into so that it doesn't mangle the input. Unfortunately this often results in a /' instead of just '.

Headhunter Posted November 27, 2007 Report Share Posted November 27, 2007 Got my renewal form in the mail on Friday and renewed via the phone system. It was easy and fast... the only potential draw back being, I have to wait for the card to come in before I can fish in 2008. They said on the phone that it would take up to 20 days for the card to arrive. I hope they have their poop together as I may/will want to hit Quinte again early in the new year and would prefer to be "legal" at that time!

Print it and stick it in your wallet. Pretty sure they do that will all renewals. They did with me anyway... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The new minister has got to go, major changes in the system need to be done. It isn't the MNR holding up the regs it is the federal government. Try and give the new Minister a few weeks on the job before we arrange for a tar and feather. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dsn Posted November 27, 2007 Report Share Posted November 27, 2007 What is the price now for a 3yr sportfishing license and conservation license by the way? Thanks dsn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KyleM Posted November 28, 2007 Report Share Posted November 28, 2007 Rick, I wasnt reffering to the Lic. aspect of it.....just the general overhaul of everything. Last year I didnt have my card on me (my own fault) and was stopped by an officer. She called in my name and number and said it wasnt in the system yet for the year, keep in mind this was October. I know the feds wont put anymore money into it but we atleast need to try. Theres no need to wait for the tar and feather, she should have never been given the job in the first place. I guess its the same situation as Mr Fergusson and MLSE. Why wait for things to go further in the wrong direction? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
