    Oh yea , it don't....
    And the first search result when you type "firearms act Canada display of firearm ammunition" into Google is...

    DISPLAY OF NON-RESTRICTED FIREARMS
    8. An individual may display a non-restricted firearm only if it

    (a) is unloaded;

    (b) is rendered inoperable by means of a secure locking device or is in a container, receptacle or room that is kept securely locked and that is constructed so that it cannot readily be broken open or into; and

    (c) is not displayed with and is not readily accessible to ammunition that can be discharged from it.

    Here is an option...why not get some dummy shells or perhaps deprimed shells to use for display purposes?

    I believe there was a guy charged somewhere , for ammo that did not even fit the gun in question.

    Simply not worth the risk
    I guess you didn't read the above???

    (c) is not displayed with and is not readily accessible to ammunition that can be discharged from it.

    One can be charged with the readily accessible ammunition anytime ...
    Whether it is determined at the time of arrest/detainment and the time it goes to Crown for determination is another matter.

    Yes, I seem to remember a case where a man was convicted on the basis of a judge's opinion that a .22 rifle "could be readily modified" to discharge 12g shotshells
    Remember the Alamo
