In Manitoba it is a required certificate to be able to purchase a hunting license. Even at that it’s still not proof of common sense as there are hunting accidents every year caused by carelessness and stupidity
same here, though there is a very simple way around it, you either need to have a hunters safety certificate or you need to have had a license in the past
the term "license" gets applied across the board, so if you buy a fishing license one you, you qualify for a hunting license the next
