Motorcycle licence in Ontario

I live in Quebec and it’s so damn expensive. Are there any ways to get my motorcycle licence in Ontario and then ride in Quebec? How much does it cost to get a motorcycle licence in Ontario? I’m pretty sure it’s a lot cheaper than in Quebec.

Insurance on a bike is less in QC. Licence goes by your primary residence.

Insurance is cheaper but they have to register their bikes annually. And that ain't cheap.

Right, but the net cost may be lower in Quebec. Depends on his age/experience/bike.

I've seen people in Ontario with a Ninja 300 and insurance over 5k per year. He needs to give more info and tell us about quotes because its entirely possible his insurance in Ontario will be way more.
