1. Everyone must register their drones if they weigh more than 250g.
2. Everyone must obtain either a basic or advanced pilot certificate.
3. You must be at least 14 years of age to obtain a pilot certificate.
4. You must keep your drone within line of sight when flying.
5. You are permitted to fly to a max altitude of 400' above ground.
6. Foreign pilots are required to obtain a SFOC before flying in Canada.
