Ontario's Ministry of Natural Resources is looking into ways to prevent fraudulent use of its Outdoors Card.
The relative ease with which an Outdoors Card can be obtained for improper use came to light after a card-bearing Chicago-area angler told a conservation officer in northwestern Ontario he was from Mississauga.
The man, who had been using a fraudulent card for 17 years, pleaded guilty earlier this month and fined $5,000.
A ministry spokeswoman says the Ministry believes there are only a few cases of fraud.
