Sir: I have been keeping you up to date with my nightmare of registering my firearms. I would like to let you know the latest. My name is __________, of __________, Ontario. Due to my profession (Police Officer) I registered all of my firearms just before the December 31 deadline. I received letters of confirmation saying that I did not have to do anything
else. I received most of the certificates immediately with one coming in late May. On two different occasions I called the CFC inquiring about my last registration certificate. On both occasions I was simply told that"we have until the end of June to get those to you and we will have them out by then" and was told not to worry. Well, here it is July 2nd, and yep, you guessed it I am a criminal. I called the CFC today and spoke to one of the
employees. I asked to get her information such as her name and birthday so that she could be charged as being an accomplice since they have assisted in my becoming a criminal. After a moment of silence she informed me that she would not do this and that "just because I had not gotten the certificate does not mean I am a criminal". I asked her how she came up with that
brilliant idea since I did not have in my possession a certificate for the particular firearm and since no further extension had been granted by Cauchon or Easter. She said that if I was stopped by the police that I
could simply explain it to them that I had applied but had not yet received my certificate. I explained to her that she was almost counselling me in committing an offence and that the only reason that I was not worried about charges is the fact that Ontario policemen will not be enforcing this legislation. She informed me that the police WOULD be enforcing this in Ontario. She seemed disappointed when I told her to check the caller ID on her phone as I was calling from work from a Police Station. Again there
was silence on the phone for a while. To finish this, these idiots have made me, a police officer of _ _ years and the ________ of the Police Pistol team, a criminal due to their incompetence.
