I know this topic has been discussed zillion times, but still not quite get it. Can I store my ammo in an ammo can(can hold 1000 rounds) with lock on it and consider it meets the safe storage requirements? My safe is getting crowed.

I'm not sure of the answer to your question. But, I have a separate ammo safe for mine. It holds about 6000 rounds of various calibres.
I have ammo locked in ammo cans.

If a locked bedroom closet is sufficient for NR firearms, why wouldn't a steel ammo can be sufficient for ammunition?
Yes
Here is what the law is for ammo. Ammo is not regulated by the firearms act.
http://laws-lois.justice.gc.ca/eng/regulations/SOR-2013-211/page-87.html#docCont281. (1) When small arms cartridges are stored in a dwelling, they must be stored away from flammable substances and sources of ignition. People not authorized by the user must not be given unlimited access to the cartridges.
Thats it.

well. on this note, a little more details. I was thinking about a plastic one like this: http://www.amazon.ca/Molded-Products...s=mtm+ammo+can
and waiting for the stackon cabinet on sale so that I can buy one or two for ammo.

I don't even think it needs to be locked.
I lock it to restrict access to non pal holders in the home.
