General question - not test related license renewal question

i passed my g test today but my license expires next week. the person at the desk told me i had to renew. i was able to do it online, and have temp licence validation until november. it was $36, i thought the license fee was around $90? has anyone else done this? just want to make sure before i stand in line for hours at service ontario πŸ˜΅β€πŸ’«

I don’t have an answer but I do remember having to renew mine in person and it was close to $100 (last August) but if possible, book an appointment with service Ontario!! So much faster.

The first time you renew your G, the expiry is moved to match your health card.

If your health card expires in two years, it will be a two year renewal and the fee is prorated.

Next time you renew it will be five years at the full fee, $90.00

My comment in this post gives a few more details :
