    PRELIMINARY REPORT Canadian use and value of non-restricted firearms prohibited under SOR/2020-96 Submitted Photo Produced by the OFAH September 2020 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY he Preliminary Report on the Canadian use and value of non-restricted firearms prohibited under SOR/2020-96 is intended to better inform the general public, political, and legal discussions that are happening right now about the amended regulations (SOR/2020-96) Tintroduced on May 1, 2020 that prohibited a large number of firearms in Canada. To our understanding, this is the only comprehensive and cohesive examination of the uses and estimated financial values of previously non-re- stricted firearms prohibited under SOR/2020-96, including any available government impact analyses and rationalization for the prohibitions. The results of this preliminary report are intended to provide a qualitative list of previously non-restricted firearms to show the categorial uses by Canadians, but is not able to quantify how many people own or use these firearms, the frequency of uses, or the collective financial value of the firearms being prohibited. The preliminary report identifies the specific hunting and sporting uses as identified through a survey for 64 previously non-restricted firearms that are listed in the RCMP’s Firearms Reference Table (FRT) as prohibited by SOR/2020-96. There are many other newly prohibited firearms that were not reported by survey respondents, as well as many identified firearms that meet the new prohibition thresholds for bore diameter and muzzle energy that are not yet listed in the FRT. The number of non-restricted firearms prohibited under the amended regulations is much higher than 64, but the report is limited to those firearms where specific ‘use’ information was provided through the survey.

  • Guidelines for Firearms and Scare Devices for Protection Against Polar Bears
    The Governor of Svalbard's guidelines for firearms and scare devices for protection against polar bears Adopted and entered into force on 12 October 2015 pursuant to Sections 7, 13, 16, etc. of Act No 1 of 9 June 1961 relating to firearms and ammunition, etc. (the Firearms Act), Section 19 of Regulations No 904 of 25 June 2009 relating to firearms, firearm components and ammunition, etc. (the Firearms Regulations), and Section 30a of Act No 79 of 15 June 2001 relating to the protection of the environment in Svalbard (the Svalbard Environmental Protection Act). 1. Introduction In 2014, the Governor of Svalbard appointed an executive committee whose mandate was to carry out a study into whether there was a basis for permitting the use of various kinds of new methods as protection against polar bears, and to review the existing guidelines with the objective of updating these. The following guidelines are the result of the facts obtained and the discussions of the executive committee, and constitute the Governor of Svalbard's complete regulation of the most common firearms and scare devices for protection currently used in polar bear safety precautions. The guidelines have been established on the basis of Norway's general firearms regulations, but on certain points for which there was no explicit statutory regulation, the Governor of Svalbard has established separate guidelines. The guidelines are also based on recommendations from other specialist authorities, such as the National Police Directorate and the Norwegian Defence Logistics Organisation. 2. Types of firearms 2.1. Rifles The acquisition, use, trade and import of rifles for use as protection against polar bears is permitted in Svalbard, pursuant to the Firearms Act and Firearms Regulations.
