While my 1st statement is true, further investigation suggests that an exemption came out in 2011 allowing 5th wheel rv's to exceed the 4600kg limit as long as not exceeding the 1100kg total truck/trailer weight limit.
This is in Ontario.

I have been told, as long as you comply with the state/ province you live in, then you are ok elsewhere...

Yes, that's true North-America-wide - as long as you're legally licensed in your home jurisdiction you're legal in all states and provinces.

Every state and province seems to have its own particular weirdness to licencing rules. We're probably no worse than most - just different.

I went through all this about 2 to three years ago, 1 ton GMC Diesel and a 15000 pound fiver, I needed a AR licence to be legal.
I did all this and had a AR licence, but since I'm over 65, MOT wanted me to do another medical and the whole test all over again (every birthday), they down grated my licence to a D now.
The Ontario Trailer ass. Now has an agreement with MOT, that after doing a test at your dealer, they will send you an additional licence, making it legal to drive a trailer with a G licence for you personal use only.
If one delivers trailers for a living, you still need a AR licence.
Same test then an 18 wheeler, except you don't need the air breaks.
Hope this helps, nobody will stop you, except should one have crash, then one might be in trouble with a plain G licence.

Why does accessing and getting accurate information from a provincial govt site need to bring up so many questions. Everything should be black and white, truck weighs this you need X and it costs Y. With this licence you can pull up to X etc. If we have questions imagine the people at the counter or thew law enforcement people.
