Sure you can Odie. I assume folks hunt in Canada so one would think they would own firearms.

Licensing

Firearms ownership up North has become a sea of red tape. Yes the rich who have friends and connections ab get al the approvals and can afford to join a "pistol club" who's yearly dues can exceed 3 thousand US dollars a year. Has approved storage for your gun. The list is so long that Even hunter's from the US no longer bother going to CA and just go to Alaska instead.

that's the Royal Canadian Mounties ad, which is 2 provinces west of Ontario.

hunting licenses have never been an issue.

So how do you justify your post #152? I assume it was an error.

How about this link which is for a firearms license:

Firearms License and Safety | Possession Acquisition and Gun Licence | PAL and Hunting Courses

No the issue is there is so much red tape they might as well be banned. like Chicago's skeam

the issue is definitely there, as it was announced on t.v also just a few years ago.

and they are pushing this......

plus.......you can buy your permit right on-line....but that's only for a hunting license....

but also on line you can buy a firearms license.......but it's not from Ontario.

then again....maybe you still can buy a permit legally here.......and that I will check out tomorrow.

Even getting a firearms certificate in the UK isn't *that* bad!

So what do Canadians, specifically from Ontario, have to do if they want to a gun for targets, or potting, or vermin control, or game shooting? Rifle? Shotgun? Any "hand guns"?
