Need advice. I have to move tomorrow and have a restricted. Been trying to get through to the RCMP to change my address and get an ATT but literally cant get through to them. What the fuck do I do?

Do you have a choice?

Well would that even save me if I did?

Interesting question for a judge to answer. Personally I would want as much supporting evidence as possible if I were forced into your situation.

When was the last time you were stopped by the cops? Just drive normally, you'll be fine.

I’m paranoid. I luckily managed to get through anyways after 45 calls and an hour on hold. I’m good to go now.

Yes. Email is the best way.

"Please issue an ATT from all of my restricted firearms"

Then provided the address information and your personal information. That's all you need to do

Are you calling your provincial CFO? It's easier to get a hold of them than the national line.

I've been trying to get a hold of the Manitoba one. I get put on hold but it hangs up after 10 minutes or so. Not sure what we're supposed to do.

This is ridiculous. "Thank you for being a responsible firearm owner!" Then it hangs up
