You can take the course and should either wY take the course. Then possibly try and courier your application onto the RCMP to fast track it. However most wait times for processing that are months. If you can get it approved before September 19th when the house starts sitting again then you might have mere days to buy something. The RCMP did say that any paperwork in before the bill is passed on transfers will be processed. So crap shoot but go for it if you can get into a class this week or so. Good luck. Let me know how it goes.

my application has been in for a few months and it hasn't been processed yet, but you'll never know if you don't try.
