I'm not sure I understand your question, Mr. Barsalou-Duval.
However, I can tell you that I don't find that normal. There's never a process to verify the skills and knowledge of a boater when they go on a body of water.
Our organization uses a boat to conduct scientific activities on the lake, such as water removal, and I myself was stopped by an RCM officer. He stopped our boat to check the equipment and so on, but he didn't even check to see if I had my lake user sticker. Even though I had the right to be on the lake, he never asked me about that, and he didn't ask me any questions about environmental rules either.
In my experience, there is no verification process of any kind when someone goes on a lake in Quebec.
