Recorded with what? An ID? Lmfao i understand the purpose but its pretty futile to record someones ID especially if they don't have a gun license,

It would be treated like bear spray, it gets registered to your driver's license /provincial ID.

Please elaborate? I worked at a Canadian tire in Calgary and that was the exact process for bear spray. Unless they decide to start requiring a pal for airsoft, that would be the process for registering the bb gun to a person.

Interesting, considering it is controlled by the Canada Pest Control Act and has a federal waiver that health Canada considers mandatory.

"Bear repellents are registered under the Pest Control Products Act; it is illegal to use a pest control product without following label directions. Please complete the following information in order to comply with the Pest Control Products Act of Canada..."

Minimum wage employees doing minimum wage things.

Probably someone new who was well meaning but didn’t know better. I can’t even buy a wera wrench without it having to be removed from a locked cage and escorted to the cash register.
