I have little pity for those trying to sneak in guns.
Ditto... as the John Cash song goes 'leave your guns at home Bill' or Bob or George or Harry, etc

I guess I'll just have to ship my gun to Alaska and pick up when arriving there after traveling through Canada. I'd be interested in hearing from anyone who has rv'd to Alaska on how they handled taking a rifle or hand gun. Did you ship? If so, where to? One more reason I'll be spending less time and money in Canada. so go ahead and fill up your 'cry towel' Sea Dog---I'll save as much money as I can going through Canada and spend it in Alaska.
With your attitude, I wish you would spend ZERO time in Canada!

like they say ignorance is no excuse of the law. wife and i snowbird each year from alaska to the lower 48. go online and get the forms fill them out except signing them tell the border patrol you have a rifle or shotgun you need to declare. they will some times want to see them and sometimes not. finish signing the form in front of them and pay the money for transporting across canada. they must be unloaded and if you have a handgun even with concealed carry premit you are going to jail. that simple. hope this helps.

If you meant that the Canadians will secure your handgun, they will probably secure the handgun and it's owner. If you intend to keep the handgun in the U.S. before entering Canada, I think licensed dealers can do that but you PROBABLY can't do it in states with stringent laws like New York, Massachusetts (? can't find my dictionary) and maybe others.
We all should have a right to protect ourselves,our loved ones and our personal property no matter where we are in North America. Canadian polititions don't seem to think so. Action and information are needed. Do your part. To do what? Be an obnoxious American? The idea of another country changing their laws to make U.S. citizens happy may reinforce some peoples'concept about "The Ugly American".
I'm off my soap box now but when I re-read your initial post, I got re-torqued so I re-posted.
