When requested to show their security license, the security guard can:

  1. Decline showing their security license

  2. Take out their security license and show the front part

  3. Take out their security license and hand it over to them to see it

  4. Ask them why

The correct answer is: Take out their security license and show the front part

In Ontario, under the Private Security and Investigative Services Act, a licensed security guard must produce and show their license when asked. However, the regulations do not require the security guard to hand over their license to someone else to see. Hence, the most appropriate action for a security guard when asked to show their license would be to take out their security license and show the front part, without physically handing over their license. This allows the requester to see the license, confirm its validity, while the guard retains control over their official document. The security guard is not required, under the same act, to engage in discussions about why the request is made, hence eliminating the choice of asking them why. The refusal to display their license is against the rules and could result in penalties, hence declining to show the license is not an option.
