Well, it looks like Ontario is already processing orders from late on May 30th. That's not so bad. Honestly I'm surprised.

If they can process this many this fast, it would seem to indicate that the previous 4-week backlog was artificial (ie: not based on processing capacity, but based on some other time-based schedule).

May 30th was the first day of Justin Time level 2, the beginning of the handgun feeding frenzy.

Yep, but it was mostly over by the 31st. There wasn't much left after that. By the end of June 1st for sure, just bits and bobs left.
