Application / Regulation advice Cons to having a PAL in Canada?
Hey everyone, I am considering getting the PAL license (restricted and non-restricted), and I wanted to ask if there are any cons to being a PAL holder in Canada?
Is it true that the government can pose you as a suspect if anything happens in the area where you live (firearm related) or just in general is it true that the government keeps an eye on you as a PAL holder?

Lots of cons, for example:
You make new friends with similar interest.
You get to enjoy shooting sports & hunting. Which is precisely what the Liberals don’t want you to have, enjoyment of things. (We are not happy until you are not happy. You will own nothing and be happy).
Your criminal record is checked once every 24 hours. Makes you one of the people least likely to commit crime.
You become more aware of government corruption and incompetence (look at all the scandals and no one is going to jail).
You look at MSM as propaganda machines for the Liberals, which is 110% true (look at the bombshell that just came out out yesterday).
