That's just more theatre. Testing is waaaay too easy. Since Canada (in this case) is such a car centric society without suitable alternatives, the testing is barely a check box. The government knows it is too challenging to live without a license for the average person.

Still probably a good idea though, at least it gets the really sketchy people off the roads.

Edit: grammar

If your testing is useless, that’s another problem. A test that doesn’t test what you want to test doesn’t pass the test.
