Quebec has a lot of rules for contests; advance registration with the government, providing them with a % of the prize value in advance, etc. Probably not worth the paperwork when dealing with them internationally.

It's not required to do so anymore for internationally based contests.

That's not Quebec specific [0] - in fact, growing up in Ontario, it wasn't until just now that I learned that this was a Canadian thing at all.

I love that the image in the article also includes parenthesis, you just know that someone had to point out that a lot of people would manage to get it wrong without them.

No it's much more byzantine than simply the skill testing question. Classic Canadian bureaucracy.
