Can anyone suggest a good time / way to call the CFO? Does anyone know their hours? Thanks in advance!

I’ve emailed them a couple times and never heard back. Coming up to 7 months now for a basic PAL renewal. RCMP says it’s sitting with the CFO

What CFO? Alberta it seems first think in the morning or 12:30. Don't bother calling after 11:00am as the system seems to hang up on you at 11:45.
