I think Ontario uses XFA quite extensively as I've run into this with
other Ontario forms as well.

Hi Leland,
GIMP 2.10.22 will not load this XFA pdf either.
I use the same approach of converting the PDF to image and writing on the
image. In this case the government will send me paper forms which I will
scan and then write on the scans...
I have been converting PDFs with ImageMagick:
mogrify -format jpg -density 300 FILE.PDF
It would create FILE-1.jpg FILE-2.jpg and so on for each page. You may
increase the page quality. Try it out.
Can you please post the PDF hyperlink? I would like to try it out with
various PDF readers.

PDFium supports XFA and is free software:

Evince is supposed to handle some XFA forms, maybe it is not compiled
in on your system. https://wiki.gnome.org/Apps/Evince/Forms
