If he's not in the UK it's not. His location says Toronto.

Minimum hours for a CPL varies depending on country ie relevant regulatory authority, and if you train piecemeal/ad hoc or attend an approved course that has some amount of hours reduction to recognise that all the hours are training goal related. 150 hrs minimum (integrated)/200 hrs (non-integrated) in Oz or the UK. In the US it would be 200 hr (part 141)/ 250 hrs (part 61).

BTW, Stav., you won't be training for an ATPL. You'll be training for a Commercial Pilot Licence + instrument rating (if you wish) + ATPL theory (if you wish). An ATPL requires 1500 hours experience. Can't see you wanting to pay for each & every hour of that! People accrue those sorts of hours once they start working.
