It took a bit of convincing to get my wife there, but this passed weekend my wife and I both did our CFSC and CRFSC courses and took the exams, unfortunately you don't get your grade on the spot (we live in Ontario but did the courses and took the tests in Quebec) so now we have to wait 2-4 weeks to find out for certain that we passed but I am quite confident about it!
From what I have read that is standard in Ontario and Quebec but frankly that's some grade A BS.
I did mine and the teacher graded it right there he even went over the question I got wrong. He handed me my signed test and I submitted it with my PAL application the next day. His signature is on the test and the CFC could call him anytime and confirm my marks if it looked like I altered them he has to keep a copy on his records.
