Why car and light truck drivers should read the Nunavut handbook once
Every question on the Class 7 knowledge exam comes from what Department of Community and Government Services, Motor Vehicles publishes in this handbook. Our 267 practice questions for Nunavut are written from it too, so reading it once and then testing yourself is faster than doing either alone.
You do not have to read all 2 parts at once. Take the rules of the road and the signs first, then come back for licensing and registration.
