! _6 T% M$ e& L8 n! xTo my understanding, ANYONE came to Canada as a "VISITOR" is not a resident at all, your temporary visit visa indicated your PRIMARY resident is not here even you have lived here for 12 month.
. a8 e0 m7 X q5 Z' c& vHowever this is just my perspective of this, don't argue with me. Several times I asked such question when I encountered with FW officer, I obtained different answers.

; ?: v9 e- ^9 ]$ U8 D) zIf I were you, I will send an email to ESRD and get an OFFICIAL reply on this, either you need a license or not. PRINT that email out and keep it while you angling in case come across a officer. 4 q! v3 }3 N, h2 E3 W. V
Saying "who who who from the edmontonchia said I don't need one" is not good enough, showing the email from ESRD will be more effective. W; ^/ q* m% ~5 @. u
Arguing with an officer on site has never been a good idea, do not try that.; `" M; E7 O' v; ~
