Depends.... does the bore measure larger than 20mm diameter?




Hint: the answer is in the name.



~non snarky answer: yes, as the bore is larger than 20mm. That stipulation of the OIC was meant exactly for this type of thing unfortunately. So many travesties having been committed with grenade launchers in the wester countries.... lol. I just about fell off my chair when blair "clarified" the BC park's cannon as not effected and that this law was to keep criminals from using grenade launchers to commit terrible acts of violence.... as if its a mainstay in gangster arsenals. Makes me think billy boy was watching some CBC voiced over MW2 noob tube game play....

Unless the park's cannon is:

1. exempt from the the firearm laws and O.I.C. for being controlled by some other law (such as it being a fuse fired antique muzzle loading cannon)
OR
2. owned and/or controlled by an organization that us exempt from the firearm laws and O.I.C. like the Canadian Military and/or RCMP

the cannon is absolutely and most certainly prohibited because what Bill Blair says is not law... yet. Bill Blair does not get to make exemptions to the laws and O.I.C. at a whim: right now only the courts can do that (and the RCMP, it seems).
