With the new provincial legislation about diving in Quebec and requiring verification of your diving expertise, I'm wondering if that would affect Morrison's Quarry as it is "privately owned".
My understanding about the legislation is that it is similar to what France did years ago. Supposedly Quebec is concerned about the number of dive accidents within the province and it is suspected that it is due to divers getting their certification in the southern warmer waters and then coming to Quebec and having to dive with full gear and in much colder water temps.
It will be $17.50 for three years and we have until december of this year to submit the required form and then after that we have to be tested/reviewed by a Quebec Dive Instructor to insure we are cold water capable.
Anyone else have any info ?
