Drivers Licence, Passport, Military ID, or BYID card ( available from the LCBO)

An establishment does not have to accept them. They can, but they don't have too. I've seen many places turn people away because that is all they have which is well within their prerogative.

I agree with reeves, this is just bad wording. It says "Acceptable forms include", but it doesn't list everything.

I'm 21 years old, but I don't have a licence, a passport, or any of those things except a health card. So I shouldn't be able to drink, smoke, buy lottery ticketd, etc.? That doesn't make any sense. I'm pretty sure this website is showing you what can be accepted, but I don't think it's ALL that can be accepted.

It would depend upon your insurance company if you still get the driving school insurance discount. I know that for some it's valid for up to 5 years. Also, if you're 20 and get your G, insurance is less too.

Right now there's thousands of people driving with an expired G2 lol.

actually i did know the strike is going on because i got my G the day before they went on strike. when i was talking about fines for expired licenses, i was thinking expired G's, although i didnt take into consideration the accomadtions made for g2 drivers during the strike.

You do have to wait the full year to get your G again though.

or if you don't get the extension. if your G2 expires and you have not booked or taken a G test, you have to start over from the G1 written. even if you don't have to take the full year, you still have to pay again, and the tests are expensive. i was trying to get across the point that its not great to let your G2 expire.
