Can I renew my Canadian Ontario drivers license outside of Canada? How do I go about getting it done?

I live outside of Canada. What do I have to do to get it renewed without going to the ministry of transportation?

1. According to the website, you need to contact the Ministry directly. (there may be a problem because you normally have to get your picture retaken) From the website: If you will be away longer than six months, we may be able to replace your driver's licence with the current photograph and expiry date, provided it is valid and not cancelled or under suspension. For further information, please call the ministry's Driver and Vehicle Licensing Call Centre at 416-235-2999 or toll free (Canada-wide) 1-800-387-3445 or write to: Ministry of Transportation Licensing Administration Office 2680 Keele Street Downsview, ON M3M 3E6 Fax: 416-235-4414 The ministry will require your out-of-province mailing address, your return date to Ontario, telephone number and either your driver's licence number or your full name and date of birth.

3. You can't. You need to live in Ontario in order to receive the license. And they do check and only the Ministry of Transport hands out licenses
