Answer Notes
When you move to a new province or territory in Canada, your call sign prefix must be updated to reflect your new region (for example, moving from Ontario's VE3 to Manitoba's VE4). Innovation, Science and Economic Development Canada (ISED) processes this specific administrative update free of charge.
The government waives the fee for this mandatory change to encourage amateurs to keep their contact information and station location accurate. Distractors involving $25, $40, or $60 fees apply to other types of optional administrative requests, not mandatory address updates.
