Yes the BC-Permit office and the GCNP are in the dark ages. You must diligently factor in every way possible that they will asininely screw up your experience; even then, if bad luck or an evil fate strikes and they can jump on a technicality, those morons will, gleefully, too! Don't know what path (lack of leadership? budget crash? protectionist incompetence?) led them to degenerate so badly in the last ten years, but woe betide anyone who actually needs to find a competent khaki-butt GCNP staff to offer anything but execrable disservice to the public.
