-Section 31: "Driving a privilege
31. The purpose of this Part is to protect the public by ensuring that,
(a) the privilege of driving on a highway is granted to, and retained by, only those persons who demonstrate that they are likely to drive safely; and
(b) full driving privileges are granted to novice and probationary drivers only after they acquire experience and develop or improve safe driving skills in controlled conditions. 1993, c. 40, s. 1."
-("Privilege: A particular benefit, advantage, or Immunity enjoyed by a person or class of people that is not shared with others. A power of exemption against or beyond the law. It is not a right but, rather, exempts one from the performance of a duty, obligation, or liability." IT IS NOT A RIGHT!)
-Section 32: Issuance of driver�s licence, endorsements
(5) The Minister may require an applicant for a driver�s licence or an endorsement or a person who holds a driver�s licence to submit to the examinations that are authorized by the regulations at the times and places required by the Minister and to meet other prescribed requirements, and the Minister may,
(a) in the case of an applicant for a driver�s licence,
(i) issue the driver�s licence of the class and subject to the conditions authorized by the regulations that, in the opinion of the Minister, are justified by the results of the examinations and other prescribed requirements, or
(ii) where the applicant fails to submit to or to successfully complete the examinations or fails to meet the other prescribed requirements, refuse to issue a driver�s licence to the applicant;
(b) in the case of a person who holds a driver�s licence,
(i) impose the conditions authorized by the regulations, remove any conditions or endorsements or change the class or classes of driver�s licence held by the person, in accordance with the results of the examinations and other prescribed requirements, or
(ii) where the person fails to submit to or to successfully complete the examinations or fails to meet the other prescribed requirements, impose the conditions authorized by the regulations, remove any endorsements, suspend or cancel the driver�s licence held by the person or change the class or classes of driver�s licence held by the person;"
"Impose the conditions authorized by the regulations..." That's pretty clear, isn't it?
