I work for a 200million dollar mining company. Being a business doesn’t help.

Figured it was a loophole. If my work would actually sign off on it I could likely get an exemption but they said no way when I asked years ago. I just pack my shorty 12ga when I need to, boss knows but says it’s unofficially allowed so just keep my mouth shut.

What is this exemption you were speaking. Only security and guards as far as I know can get exemptions for carrying with companies

Forestry and guiding you can get it in northern Alberta and BC. I know of a few who have had it for years. If I was still a mill forester I could probably get mine where I use to work. I know 2 guides/outfitters who have theirs as well. Had them for years but had to submit the exception when things changed

Yeah so that's the prospectors license for restricted handguns. No longer an option since they banned the handguns I'm pretty sure
