There are some misconceptions in this thread on both sides... first and foremost, we cannot get "all" the same guns here as they can in the US as some are restricted to importation here and it is not a simple matter to get ones hands on an AR platform gun anymore. By the same token, I believe there are a few models readily and cheaply available here (SKS?) that may not be so easy to get in the USA. The full auto guys got grandfathered in the 1970s, I don't believe that it is possible to bring new select fire or full auto weapons into Canada now (but I could be wrong) We can buy guns (standard and restricted) via mail order... we don't have the interstate commerce issues here that are in the US related to firearms so guns and ammo via mail are non-issue. Any airgun over 500 FPS is treated like a firearm under the law
Pike River, you are correct that our Conservatives are "small-c"... but they are more like RHINOs than they are like Dems. A party with a Republican platform would be unelectable here simply based on how our electoral system works and how much weight eastern Canada (especially QC which is lefty heaven) is given.
Just happy to be here.

So what's the point of having a license? With the license I can legally buy the gun I want and the ammo I want and get it sent to my house within a week. Without a license I would need to find a degenerate to sell me a gun and hopefully have some ammo for it. For a law abiding citizen it is no big deal to get one

Are you guys aloud to carry them, open or concealed? I carry a gun every day on my trap line.

Open carry of non-restricted long guns only (there is an exception for trappers who can possibly get a wilderness pistol license - which is open carry of a .22 handgun) In a general sense, any firearm classified as "restricted" which includes all handguns, they can only be fired at a range and only transported under a separate authorization to transport (ATT) from home to range or home to gunsmith for repairs, etc. Prohibs I am not much familiar with the regs. The license entitles you to purchase firearms within the classifications covered by your license... now that the registry has been repealed, that is about as far as things go in terms of restrictions to purchase firearms that are not classed as restricted or prohib. There is NO (99.99%) way that any regular person is EVER going to be allowed to carry concealed in this country... it just ain't allowed.
Just happy to be here.

Exactly. That's why these gun laws only affect law abiding citizens, and do nothing to stop criminals.
