For people who got their CC charged in ON, how long until issued, assuming no issues?

I tried this when I did mine 2 years ago. They told me there's nothing they can do.

Liberal mp? They're very reluctant to help with anything these days. I'd persist and use forums like this to dig up other MPs who have so you can argue otherwise.

RCMP is a federal jurisdiction as you know, so they're exactly the ones who can do something contrary to their opinion haha. But we have little transparency and accountability in government so I don't set my expectations too high.
