RCMP website was down for maintenance yesterday afternoon too, so a lot of business were unable to put transfers through, or the the PAL checks.
I spent 1/2 hour on hold yesterday morning waiting to apply for my ATT to go to a competion in Sask. Only to be given the run around.

If they ban all the guns in one swoop maybe more than 30% of the population would get off their ass and vote. But, people are lazy so maybe not.
Slow and steady, has always worked against us and still does because people wont wake up.

They never completed your ATT ? Sure makes it hard to respect the good guys and gals that are RCMP when they pull chit like that.

Ya she told me I need to provide dates and other information, I told here I can't provide that information because the competion calander hasn't been release yet, When I asked her about how my friends that I shoot with got theirs she told me that she has a process that she has to follow. When I asked her if it's the same form that I could fill out on line she said yes. I told her that that is the problem and athat there is another way and that she should start that process. She told me tht she will have to consult with other agents and get back to me tomorrow. With this new ban hammer dropping I'm not holding my breath.

I was going to take a pal course this winter, mine expired 1 years ago and never got it renewed.


Wondering if there is any point now...

If you plan on using any of your firearms that haven't been banned then I would suggest you get it. If you have any ristricted firearms that are registers then you definatley want to get it. Owning firearms in Canada is against the criminal code and your PAL serves as an exception to that rule. Without it, if they come and search your home, which they can do at any time if you have firearms registered to you, you will be looking at a prison sentence.

I'm no lawyer but that is my understand of the law. You may want to Check with Ian Runkle.

It’s comments like yours that fuel the anti gun lobby.

What consequence would that be?
Stuff like this? Christ in the first ban in 2020 they had biathlete guns on the ban list. He’s even running athletes out of the Olympics. What purpose does that serve? Is their crime and shooting in the Olympics?

Will we? You assume an election will happen and that the CONS will win?
Give it a rest. Tell you want oh great know it all? I’ll bet you a thousand dollars there will be an election. Put your money where your theory is.

Has anyone ever heard Pierre say he will bring back the sale and transfer of handguns?
he wouldn't say anything. he's trying to get votes and as far as the population goes that's a very spilt issue. better to avoid it and try to get as many votes as you can. he has said he is against the new gun control regs a few times but I think if he ever does address the handgun part it will be after an election

Him banning guns is on purpose for the general population. As far as consequences for him for doing it, there is none. Canadians smile as their being taken into communism.
