It's not open on the weekend for regular peons like us. Which is really, I dunno...kind of stupid since people are in gun stores...on weekends...when they are not at work. Very thoughtful of the apparatchiks.
Magua took the hatchet to colour with blood...It is still bright.
They used to be. Bought a few at Saturday auctions and the restricteds etc were sold early and transferred by lunch. Now it's wait until next week.

When this whole registration B.S. was tendered in C68, 1 of the big broken promises was that the legislation "would not interfere with business".
For a short time after C68 the CFC WAS open 9 to 9 7 days a week so business was not lost, but slowly the hours and day were shortened to what we see today, typical government hours of 9 to 5 local time Monday to Friday. More often than not the Alberta CFP office is also closed on Wednesdays for unknown reasons, but I can guess.
There also used to be more training courses in more locales prior to C68. The government took them over, and cut the number of courses.
The courses are paid for by students. I don't know if the government takes a cut, beyond the cost of the book (the useful parts of which came from the courses they cut).
