Ya but the number is telling a different story. Vancouver urban areas are not very gun friendly let’s just say that. Everybody is wearing lululemon and Arc’teryx. Giving free drugs to homeless whatnot….

I don't know man, I was at one of the gun store in Vancouver and one of the customer was Asian female in her 20s getting her transferred pistol back in 2022.

Many gun stores were quite packed prior to Dec 2024.

I would assume the actual numbers of NR prohibited in BC and Alberta are way higher.

Isn't Lockhart, crusader and black Creek labs all based in BC as well?

I am not sure that's where they are based, the stores could be in BC, but manufacturing could be in another province or country.

My previous comment just means that while Vancouver appears to be somewhat anti gun, but the actual number of PAL holders and the number of guns they own is quite significant compare to other provinces.

So it's somewhat plausible that you might have see a higher number of declarations from BC and AB. However, I am sure there are crap load of NR prohibited as well that people aren't declaring.
