The province does matter since it get’s handed off to the provincial CFO(office). Some provinces have more volume/resources than others.

The application is processed by provincial offices??

Look at all the comments from people who say that RCMP has completed initial review and their application is now with their province’s CFO. It’s still a federal process but CFOs are delegated duties in their respective provinces.

Province as a region, not as a legislative entity.

Sounds reasonable. That weakens the excuse for wait times a little, but I just hope they aren’t being short staffed on purpose.
