Do you have the Minimum Required Safety Equipment on hand?
If boating at night or in low light conditions, navigation lights that meet the applicable standards set out in the Collision Regulations. If the pleasure craft is operated after sunset and before sunrise or in periods of restricted visibility (for a canoe), a single light is sufficient (e.g. waterproof flashlight, lantern or torch).
