I got mine through here:

I've got no complaints about the process or the service.

I don't think anyone is happy or satisfied about having to get one . . . I was pretty ****ed off that I need a operator's card to run my canoe with a trolling motor.

Was watching the news yesterday & they stated that 75% of Alberta boat owners do not have the operators card. They also said after giving people 10 years to aquaire it the law is going to start clamping down & charging boaters without it.

explain to me how that works, you have to convince the computer program that a friend is in your house watching the test?

I had the same problem, why do you need a person watching you. Kind of takes away of doing something online. Worse part was not telling you until you already had your credit card number registered. Be easier just to go to the license bureau and do it there.
