What if the freeze happens at some point in the future instead of immediately?

You could get lucky, but I'd be surprised if C21 didn't go through sometime relatively soon.

The other option is the Cons win a national election and PP changes the regs.

I would get the RPAL regardless. It's barely different than what's needed to get the PAL and there are benefits beyond being able to buy handguns.
