I was curious after reading this thread so I looked it up. CPS actually posted a tweet answering this question. It does appear that you need some sort of license and apprenticeship.

See 9(1)(b) which is an offence as per section 15. 250$ fine.

Apprenticeship requirement info;

It does seem like a pretty rare and rarely enforced provincial offence. I guess the possession of break & enter tools criminal code charge could also be used depending on the situation you find yourself in.

I have a number of lockpicking tools and pick guns. Fun hobby. Disgustingly easy to open most locks.

Pretty sure sawzall’s are used for B&E more often than Amazon lock pick sets.

I think if a person had lock picking equipment on thier person AND they were arrested on suspicion of some crime where a lock was picked illegally, there is a 50/50 chance of getting that fine.

Having this shit in your car and getting a speeding ticket is a non-issue.

That is a much harder skill for sure. That being said it's much less accessible because who has access to multiple safes?

Since my phone pays attention and reads my emails, got this lock picking suggestion on YouTube.

A lot of hacks out there.

The lock's unpickable! rofl

Newest kill. Lock for my kids jewelry box.

Wtf how’d you get the key to my heart?

Looks like an aliexpress chastity belt lock.
(not that I've looked, just heard stories)

Well, was asked to open a storage container "seacan" at work today, it's empty, and we lost the keys, but some loser locked it up. Anyway, I can say with certainty that the lock holding that seacan closed is manufactured to much higher standard than any of the padlocks I've been practicing on. I was not able to open it.

Is it a Master brand? I think you can just rake them all quickly with the right size.

[ExtraSlow]

Well, I don't know what brand the lock itself is, which prevents any research. It's inside an enclosure that looks like the "royal wolf container lock" system, but it's impossible to see what brand of lock is inside. I did attempt some raking, and it seems much better made than the master locks I've practiced on.

Very accurate.

In that case, just run a 3/8” drill bit up in it and the guts should just fall out.
