Hey guys/girls.
I just bought my deer and bear licence on the new system. When I went to print all documents, my summary came up showing both, but the only tag was the bear tag.
Wondering if they wait to after the anterless draw, or were you able to print your deer tag right away?
thanks,
FishHog
I would suspect that if you applied for the antlerless draw, you won't be able to print anything pending the results.
did same thing applied for deer and doe tag, i believe it said tag pending outcome.Quote:

I did my turkey and deer (anterless) a few weeks ago, my turkey was available to print and I did, but the deer was not available and it does not say anywhere on my summary that the tag is pending. Kinda hoping I didn't get screwed for the draw as payment was for both tags.
Went to my account page on the MNR site and it shows that my tag is pending so I should be in the draw.
Has anyone bought a deer tag for buck only and printed off that tag immediately?
John
Same. Says pending under deer for me.

Same here. Deer is pending.
Printed my Bear & Turkey tags no problem.
Deer tags wil be available to be printed only on or after Aug 20.New rule...........
So how do you reconnect with your transaction to be able to print the licence you bought in April? For someone like me who is basically computer illiterate it is scarey
Hi OntDon-sorry i did not make the rule...it is quite confusing,missing logic in many areas,and i think 20 years ago our system was WAY better.But hey-who am i ?Quote:

Terrible system.
It was really good when a waterproof physically sturdy plastic/paper tag had a sticker verifying licence that could go to the back of the OutDoors card.
Now... worse than ever.
For one thing, it makes the economically arrogant assumption that everyone has a home printer.
Worse, what stops a poacher from SCANNING-PRINTING a licence 10+ times?
The poacher could kill deer again and again and look legal everytime they come home with a new deer.
Until an MNR game check!!
Then, because the poacher will have licence/time/date info entered into the CO data base, that is the end of being able to use scanned "licences".
But how often does that happen?
Up here, maybe every 4-5 years I might encounter a CO during big game season.
This new system is so open to abuse and such a download of proper a tag system onto hunters, that it defies imagination.
Agreed! I think the government is relying on the hefty fines to prevent abuse....
On Aug 20th your tag will be available to print. Remember to only print one. No photo copies allowed.. Lol
I couldn't have said it better myself...Quote:

And I tag a deer and a rainy day and drag it for a mile and get to my truck and my paper tag is unreadable or worse has fallen off on some raspberry canes and I meet my CO and I did everything legal and then what?
Can I laminate my paper tag

WE don't have to to tag the animal at the kill site anymore. Just carry the tag with you in a zip lock bag,notch it out at the kill site and put it back in the zip lock. If you laminate the tag,a CO won't be able to scan the bar code and you're going to have a problem. The only time a tag must be applied is if the shooter isn't present with the animal while it's being transported. In that case,simply attach the entire zip lock with zip ties,so,it can be opened and inspected if necessary.Quote:

Heck I,am only $1700.00 in debt but thank goodness Doug Ford saved me that $2.00 on my license fee. LOL
Memo to Doug stop listening to stupid people and bring back the phone in system and we will pay the stupid $2.00 for a postage stamp so you can send us back our license and tags which IS WEATHER PROOF,COMES WITH A STICKY BACKING,IS HARD TO COPY AND DOES NOT BLOW OFF YOUR BLOODY DEER WHILE ITS HANGING UNATTENDED ON THE MEAT POLE BECAUSE YOUR IN TOWN DROWNING YOUR SORROWS OVER THIS HUNTING BUSINESS.
You can get a printer for less than 40 bucks on most weeks. The entire printer most times cheaper then the inkQuote:

fishfood,
You are making the same arrogant assumptions the Doug Ford government is making,everybody has access to a computer and printer and the Internet.Wake up call buddy that is not so. So what you should learn is this fact and there was a alternate that would have solved all these problems that they already had the phone in application.
Have you figured out how much more this will cost some hunters and how much less it cost the government?Never mind the inconvenience.
Try and put yourself in some one,s else,s shoes for a change.Its all about perspective do you see an old lady in this picture or a beautiful young lady.

Agree Gilroy,
It is totally arrogant to thing everyone has a "home office". Many don't.
Publicly available computers/printers exist, like at a public library.
But there is no way I would type my credit card info into a public computer.
So the only choice for many will be a Service Ontario office
I agree! I know guys that do not have the equipment, or the knowledge how to use them. Opening the system to serious abuse is another matter. Some clown in an office somewhere, that likely has never hunted or spent time outside of said office, made this unilateral decision to put our resources in jeopardy. They totally disregarded all good advice coming from the enforcement division. Now, they are stuck trying to protect what little resources we have left, with their hands tied..... nice !! I’d rather pay the 2 bucks !!!Quote:

No different with this system, put the file on a Thumb Drive and go just about anywhere to have someone print it off for a stipend.
Further more...no one said to have to use the on-line service....got to where you buy it in person like you have in the past.
Good Hunters must learn to adapt ....the military uses the term "whiners and bed wetters" for those that fail to :)
I do agree with whatever Ford is doing for us and for our children.
All the debt we accumulated to appease certain ppl in the province,to win the next and the next election......glad it ended.Hope will not return for a long time.
Yet-we must admit,this thing with the new system could be handled better,far batter.The Ford Government can handle few issues as this- just because i support them,it does not have to mean i agree with everything they do.
Pointing to issues to them and have them fixed for us could make them only so STRONGER.
Hope they listen and change this thing,it sucks.
The 'new' system is because of the open market contract biding and the MNR finding a cheaper alternative to what we had. The company that won the contract to provide this service for the MNR is from the US and thsi new system is basically the same one now in use by millions of hunters, in many states. They are able to keep our annual costs down by us adopting their systems, already in place and not having to redesign and modify it (too heavily). It works and is workable in our province once people get over the histrionics and accept it.Quote:

Clearly you are not reading the posts,my Service Ontario on the way to the cabin in Norwood no longer sells the licenses.Maybe the cost for them was to much for set up.They directed me to Peterborough,which if you live in the Norwood area is a trip which cost you in gas,parking and time.This whole set up is convenient for the government and inconvenient for the rest of the hunters,especially people in rural areas some who do not even have internet services.Quote:

How you can say no extra effort required and then go on to describe trips to Staples or Office depot to print a copy for a stipend is pretty funny.Do we all have these stores near us ANSWER is NO.Do we all have a library near us answer is NO.Do we all have a Service Ontario near us even offering license sales the answer is NO.
Do you see a pattern developing here,how about just keeping the phone in system and stop trying to re invent the wheel.
If you cannot see the difficulties which the MNR officers are going to face in light of this changes I really am at a loss for words.
Not so fast Trimmer. There are four service Ontario offices in Brampton for instance,only one sells licenses.There are service Ontario offices that have completely stopped selling licenses,ie Norwood up your way.Is it fair to ask hunters in that area to drive to Peterborough?Quote:

Well "old boy", you have the computer( you not getting on here via smoke signals), create your account. Learn how to print to a file. This is the option that will come up if there is no printer for computer to use. Even when you have a printer you can always "PRINT TO FILE" and make a PDF. When you want to buy your tags or license go to the site, go through the steps and then hit the print option. Your computer will list the options for printing,( Print to File) select print to file and print the file to your desktop or somewhere you can find it. Copy the PDF file to a USB stick and take it to staples.Quote:

What a load of B.S. Gilroy...for someone who purports to have post secondary education, I'm perplexed as to why you can't figure out how to get a file printed, it's pathetic. In fact I'll bet if you stop into Meljesnic Computer Solutions or B designed Graphics in Norwood they would be happy to it for you. In fact there is a bevy of stores and services in Norwood that actually own a printer..seriously make an effort.
You like to make up nonsense excuses for situations that anyone with any intelligence can solve with a bit of thought.
And why are you responding to my post, you promised you'd block me so I wouldn't feel the need to point out how ridiculous you sound :)
Most of his comments are towards others not his own ,just a little of his own . I'm sure he has all the right tools to get it done for himself but is unwilling to try.Quote:

Well if your going to leave it for the last minute well then you might have some problems ,don't be that guy and plan ahead.
Gilroy maybe help out someone that can't do it . Get your stuff done learn it and show others how to do it instead of complaining. We have to work together not a single person, I'm sure there are plenty of people willing to help someone out but they need to speak up and get it done.
As snow Walker said I also thought about doing a bunch for a smaller fee than his 5 bucks. [emoji1787] if everyone sticks together and helps out no one should be left without a license or tags. We need to start a hotline snowwalker I'm sure you can't take all the calls without keeping people on hold to get angry [emoji106][emoji6] .
Ps I see where gilroy is going with all this but the deal is done and instead of complaining. Maybe helping others who can't is a good idea.

Fishfood, we don't need to take phone calls. Just have the PDF's emailed with a mailing address, print them off and drop them in the post box. You bill them through PayPal. You can even offer the licenses and tags on regular or waterproof paper. I can even do it well driving around in my truck at work in Canada or the States. Receive emails, print, drop in Stamped addressed Envelope, drop in the post box.
Yeah it is a pretty simple method lol. But then guys like gilroy need to talk to someone to make sure they are real.Quote:

We started printing our fishing licenses couple years ago when it started to become a thing. I had an issue this year but it was 1AM Jan 1st lol, I simply drove 30 minutes outta the way in the morning to get it. That was my fault for leaving it to the last minute, if it was the day before things would of been good. Who wants to fix things when your trying to get to sleep and have to be up in 3 hours lol .
We went camping last year my wife most times gets her license in the spring. Last year she did not and you know not a place around to buy a license. Couple of hims and awws oh yea online, within 5 before we went out in the boat she had her license. Its simple she saved it to the phone, printed and signed it immediately as we got home. I will continue to get my fishing license online every year from home on new years eve[emoji6]

bought and printed my turkey tag today. Looks like applying for big game is going to be a lot easier as well. I feel the system worked great. Signing up was the worst part but again no big deal. My only thought is how many people will be printing multiple copies and using their friends or spouses names to apply for tags because technically they don't have to be there. If someone sticks anyones tag on the animal it's legit.... Goes completely against everything that they have been trying to prevent for years.... Now especially moose hunters can stack their numbers to get tags with phantom applicants
That is not entirely accurate....Quote:

My turkey tag states " You may attach the tag to the animal at any time; however you MUST attach the tag if you are not immediately accompanying the animal or immediately available to produce the tag for inspection. The tag must be securely attached to the lower part of a leg." That is word for word off my turkey tag.... How do you interpret that? I shoot turkey put my buddys tag on it and good to go. I get stopped I say he was here but had to go.... done.Quote:

Pretty sure my interpretation is right.Quote:

You just can't get your buddies tag and put it on and be done with it.... You must also be prepared to give your buddies info to the conservation officer if stopped...Then you can be rest assured they will follow up with your buddy to determine if the facts add up....(time, place, location etc....) But thanks for bringing this up to all our attention, interpreting the regs or even information in print can be tricky.
So,I found out (for Turkey). I posted this on another thread,but,I'll post it here,too,FYI. I called two ServiceOntario outlets only to find that they only do motor vehicle registration and neither one could tell me which outlet sold hunting licences and tags,in fact,one person I spoke with had a look like she just stepped in dog crap when I asked about hunting licenses. I decided to try to navigate the internet site only to have one hell of a time as others have described. I was using Google Chrome which I've found is incompatible with the vending website. Switching to MS EDGE solved the problem and worked like a charm. I hit the "print" button on the site instead of "download to pdf". Lo and behold,it not only printed the license and tag,but,automatically downloaded to pdf the whole thing. There's a downside to this,though. If I was that way inclined,there's nothing stopping continuous printing of tags. I think we'll have some serious issues to deal with from this system.Quote:

Well if I was running around with your tag and mine and shot a deer. I could text you the info you needed to hold up your end of the story, along with some pictures. You can tell the co the right things, and since your at work you really need to get off the phone..Quote:

Stay tuned...as they say..
We will notch our tags and put the tag in our wallet. If the carcass is unattended we will put the tag in a zip lock bag and zip tie the bag to the deer. Easy peasy!Quote:

The head CO here in Kemptville says they are 'complaint driven' now...responding if they are called...Sad...
Haven't run into a CO in 10 years now, use to see all the time during deer season. On occasion I have heard they are around opening day of goose and duck. I did run into Ottawa Police last year they only asked to see my PAL I asked if he wanted my hunting license and he said he didn't even know what one looked like, so I guess he didn't hunt.
Matter of fact I didn't realize until after I had given him my Pal it was the old expired one the new one was on the other side of my wallet. He didn't even check the date.
Ive printed many times on "Rite in the Rain" waterproof paper with a laser printed. Works fine. I printed my license summary and bear tags this spring on it with no issues.Quote:

When yours arrives turn your tap and put the paper under it for a few seconds, the water will bead off.Quote:

Rite in the Rain is probably your best bet. We sell that stuff to all the Government Environmental water testing agency's, and they use it all the time. You can also the the Rite in the Rain pen...which can write under water if its raining that bad!!
Well I do mostly waterfowl, so my bear and wolf/coyote licenses and seals have to put up with some water..
I was really planning on testing a printable plastic sheet.
And it's nice to be able to offer the CO a pen when he's having trouble writing up your charges in the rain...HaHa..Quote:

Hey guys, so for some reason, my printer isn't printing my tag unless I screenshot it. Apparently , according to my email reply after telling this to the mnr, printing off of a screenshot is not acceptable.
I asked what do I do now then?
Awaiting a reply.
What was wrong with the old system?
If you login into your account you can actually still download the PDF, at least I can.

I think the new system is great.
Working flawlessly for me & no more phoning in to hear a busy signal or wondering if my info truly went through. No more driving to the license issuer & waiting in line to buy a tag.
Now we have an instant receipt that shows the transaction & can easily check our draw results and print my own tag from home. :)
Pretty much my thoughts as well !Quote:

I printed my licenses off at work. But when I saved the PDF it only saved the summary not the licenses. But there is away around that. Problem solved. ;)
When i tried to print the license it printed the summary instead...now i am on the phone with MNR support
Same here. Did you ever find a resolution?
Printed my Moose and Deer tags no problems.
if you go down to print all available documents it should print your licence summary and all available tags. before yu print if you go on the top right hand side it will have a save pdf button which will allow you to re print it. had no problems printing mine and my fathers tags and summary GOOD LUCK!
I printed off a Bear tag over the weekend and it went without a hitch.
I had issues with my turkey license this spring so I went to Service Ontario for my bear, deer and additional deer tag. My turkey reprint cost me $10.00 at CT
Went to print my moose and bear tags a couple of days ago and screen comes up saying tags were already printed! Trip to Service Ontario, (80 km round trip) fill out and sign form saying I couldn't print licenses, the lady makes a phone call and voila she prints out my tags. 4 hrs of my life wasted because of the new and better way!
Thanks. I got a quick email response from MNR and was given three choices: waiting on the phone, going to Service Ontario while they wait on the phone, or going to the nearest License Issuer while they wait on the phone.
Problem resolved with a 45-minute phone call to MNR. The issue is that they tried to do something fancy to prevent you from saving the tag. If it detects that you are trying to download the PDF with tags, it sends only the summary.
In my case, the issue was with the Samsung Internet browser. If you tried to Open rather than Download, it gave an error and that counted as "Printed" to the MNR system. The issue was resolved by using the Chrome browser instead.
I suspect most people won't run into this problem if using a desktop or laptop.
Take a snap shot using snipping tool or snagit. ��
Printed mine Monday lovely copy of the summary only checked site and saw dreaded "PRINTED" sign LOL so today went to service center and have them print licence for me staff behind counter were complaining saying what a wonderful system the tag system had gone to. Plus how much extra work it is creating for them LOL.
I spoke with two fellows today who printed off their deer tags at home , first guy s printer printed off 3 copies, all identical, second guy printed off 11 copies, all identical.
What happened was in both cases their wives had used the printer and the guys forgot to look and change the number of copies that their wives had printed recipes off.
Now what happens they have all these extra deer tags that they could use "if they don't get caught ".
I wonder how long this system will stay in use if it allows this to happen ?, something has to change.
Said it earlier and hope it does not happen but what they did in some states when they went to this system is start to have you bring your deer in to a registration station. These are gas stores, out door stores etc. They record your tag, date, etc.
Really hope that does not come to pass.

Was that, coincidentally, the same time frame that the registration program was put in place to combat CWD in various states ?Quote:

That was how we did it in nb
When I was growing up.

Make a copy or counterfeit tag
Set Fine: $600.00
Total Payable: $730.00
No person shall make a copy or counterfeit of a tag or validation certificate or possess such a copy or counterfeit.
So if your tag gets wet I'm guessing you can no longer hunt.

That works
So, you are advocating the commission of an offence on a public forum ??Quote:

We all know some will copy and poach a deer there is nothing stopping you, the MNR has made it easier and less likely that you will be caught.
But I believe the majority of hunters will play legal and keep the deer population in there area for years to come.
I would turn in anyone I thought was abusing the system.
We went through that nonsense many years ago with having to bring turkeys to a weigh-in station, and it was a total pain in the butt.Quote:

Lets hope more common sense prevails and we don't end up with weigh-in stations again!
Good luck with that......”But Officer, my original tag got wet and I no longer have it, so this one is not a copy”......LolQuote:

At least that’s my understanding...
So I could still go to bass pro and get my tag instead of printing it I’m only 5 minutes away I would like to use my gift cardsQuote:

Should I just go to a license issuing store and get them to print one? I'm worried I had the option when I first got it and just never printed it
Everyone who purchased a license was notified of the changes.Quote:

If your asking about the actual tag,then yes you can get it printed out at an issuing store.I bought all mine from Sail in Etobicoke and after being unsuccessful in the draws went back and got the tags for antlered deer and calf Moose.Quote:
