Still seemed like a cash grab, that originally I'm sure the money was used to help monitor them but when you have thousands upon thousands all over the province you don't really have to worry too too much about them disappearing again.
I took the course a couple years ago, I didn't mind doing it and I felt it was a good initiative for the Ontario Government to take. I thought it was neat how you have to do a "live" interview over Skype to do the test. I can see how for residents they could encorporate that information into a Hunter training course. For non-resident rookies I feel it would still be a good thing to have.
