Just curious David. Do Canadian pilots flying VFR largely have to use

ATC
service, or can you guys just do the squawk VFR thing and fly willy

around Canada without talking to ATC?


They are a lot like us. One exception that will never fly here is that
they are required to file and open a VFR flight plan for any flight over
25 miles.


You don't *have* to file a flight plan for such flights.
You can instead file a 'flight itinerary', or, less formally, leave the
information
with a 'responsible person' who will report you missing if you don't show
up
where you're supposed to be.
