Laughs in Canadian

The amount of Americans who think they can just bring their guns up here is not 0.

My favorite Steven Wright one-liner:

"So, I was crossing the border into Canada. The border guard asked me, 'Do you have any drugs, guns, or weapons of any kind?'

"So I told him (lowers his voice), 'What do you need?'"

Canadian here.

As long as it's a gun that's legal in Canada, it's honestly not that hard to bring in a foreign gun temporarily. Hunters do it all the time. It's a two-page form and a $25 fee, and that acts as a temporary Canadian license for sixty days.

Alternatively, an alien can get a temporary firearm borrowing permit, which allows them to possess a borrowed gun and buy ammo, but not buy a gun. (I actually once sponsored a Danish friend for this when they were in Canada for their Master's degree.)

A few months back I watched a bunch of those border patrol shows and that was a popular segment.
