This reader asks if the CF1 is a suitable form of veteran identification, allowing them to fish free in Ontario.
The CF1 card is also issued to National Defense "Partners". Like DCC. So one can be in possession of a CF1 card, yet not be a veteran.
However, actual Veterans are issued a CF1 card with a different colour, and the word "Veteran" clearly marked.
Just have your NDI20, or apply to VAC and get your NDI75, it takes nothing to do really. Small amount of effort to take advantage of a free fishing opportunity.
Last summer,I was checked by federal fisheries officers (Lake Ontario) and asked for my license. I told her I was a senior and didn't need it. She was unaware that seniors fished free in Ontario,made a phone call to verify and was told to only accept a valid driver's license or birth certificate.
