Seems a little onerous, doesn't it?

Will US licenses (Part 107) be adiquate for US drone pilots flying in Canada.  US drivers licenses, pilots licenses and even boating licenses transfer over.

Yes and I just got a Mavic 2 Zoom. I will be doing the advanced exam. Want it or not you are piloting an aircraft you have to know what you are doing to some extent. Same as driving a motor vehicule, you need a license.

to some extent yes, but not to what the flowering bureaucracy can invent - that is real disaster. More and more clouds over our small birds

The basic exam is 35 questions and the required grade is 65%, nothing impossible to achieve with a little reading. On the other hand the advanced exam is 50 questions and requires 80% grade, kind of serious.

You are right, 35 questions and 65% is not too bad, but it would be nice to have a guide to study for the exam.

What a piece of cake are these Drone rules ..... Look what i've just found on Youtube - selfmade turboplanes in Russia. What rules do this hobby follow?

No problem, it will take a bit of time. I have to revise courses I have taken and perhaps do one more. The advanced exam seems to be serious stuff.
