We'd like to get some unrestricted firearms, probably hunting rifles. But, a member of our family has suffered depression before, and we want to keep them safe. Are there any ranges in southern Ontario that can store for you? Will our family member's health history prevent the rest of us from getting licenses? Thanks so much!

If your family member is not licensed it's illegal for them to have access anyway. I would recommend spending the money on a proper gun safe and go above and beyond and put trigger locks on Aswell.
