Who knows, they do what they want… Trudeau banned rifles because they had no hunting value, but also said people who needed them for hunting could still use them for that. It doesn’t have to make sense apparently, whatever they say goes…

Unless a police officers finds an frt prohibited firearm in your possession, then it is as good as laws.
