in handgun sales, and, according to the Alberta government, a bottleneck in transfer and licence applications that has resulted in ballooning wait times.
In a Tuesday interview with Postmedia during a trip to Edmonton, Mendicino said the federal government anticipated a potential increase in handgun purchases following the announcement. However, he argued that if the Conservative Party of Canada caucus had been on board to pass the bill and its regulations more quickly, that would have put a stop to new permits and any backlog.
“It is not a foolproof strategy, it will not guarantee that there will never be another gun crime committed in this country, but it will help and that’s what law enforcement has said, and that’s what others have said.”Alberta’s Chief Firearms Office is seeing a 40 per cent increase in emails inquiring about the status of a firearms licence application or transfer request.

I have owned hunting rifles since I was 12 years old and now when I have been planning (for the past 20 years) a regular trip to the pistol range during retirement, I can't even get a message through to the CFO in SK to find out the status of my purchase. I have been vetted!🙄

What tripe, the delays are due to underfunding, understaffing and poorly thought out law, owners have to call in to get permission (ATT) to take their handgun to a gunsmith, even if the gunsmith works at the same range they shoot at, the range that they already have an ATT for

JOHNSON: Who's ready for responsibility of PM? That's the question for us ToriesPatrick Brown\u0027s departure from the federal Conservative leadership race changed its dynamic overnight, especially here in the GTA. I disagree, we don't want another red tory at the realm. You emphasize on the GTA and Pierre was able to have large turnouts there as well. I've been watching Pierre since the beginning of the pandemic and he's been right on just about everything. Charest was busy with Huawei 1/n Neither of them will have to worry about it.

Nova Scotia environment minister voices concern over federal carbon tax in letter to OttawaIn the letter to federal Environment Minister Steven Guilbeault, Tim Halman stresses that a new tax at this time will ‘have severe, negative ramifications without a clear view of any benefits’ Nice to see. God, we're embarrassing. As the world works to meet the global climate emergency, Nova Scotia's government thinks grabs and golf courses. How interesting that the least concern of this Minister is the environment. This is consistent with his recent behaviour of condoning his own department's failure to enforce its own laws and regulations. Will he be addressing the housing shortage and lack of healthcare next?
