Not true. There is a whole thread of guys from Ontario who were getting approvals in December and later for transfers, despite the freeze coming into effect in October. Approvals were still coming in February and March at the least:

Wrong. Nobody knew the exact date this would happen, and as long as it was initiated it was supposed to be completed.
What? Would a transfer reference number make it more clear?
You need to talk to the CFO. Not the CFP. The Alberta CFO. The CFO does not have a publicly listed phone number, so either you will need to know their extension (I only know BCs, so can't help you there) or you will need to call the CFP and have them transfer you. They are the ones who approve the transfer, so they should be able to tell you what is going on.
My Wife has been phoning, and fairly sure that she was transferred to the AB CFO. The only answer she's gotten is it's on the desk waiting. Highly frustrating, and it seems it'll have to be pursued more aggressively.
Uh huh...where's the pistol then? Lol.
Another confusing post. If the notice of transfer is in your wife’s name show it to the seller and have him put it in the mail.
Different pistol guys!
Bought several pistols around that time, and that was one of mine.
Your OP was very lacking of details and you slipped in more details in various posts so it was very confusing as to what firearm or transaction you were referring to. If your query to the CFP and CFO was as confusing as this thread, that might account for the mixup.Why would I even start a thread if I got a notice of transfer??
absolutely FALSE,,as long as transfers were called in up until the last minute of the ban,they were processed same as always,i did quite a few of them until the last hour,ALL of them were completed,no problem,took them a long time because they got flooded with 1000's of transfers in the last few weeks,fun times,
Where's the gun then? Nevermind your nonsense, look at the facts. The OP doesn't have the gun (transfer denied), and the same thing happened to me. No transfer.
I said I got "A" letter of transfer in December. I didn't think I'd have to explain that, but it was for a different pistol.
I received the approval for a different gun from another deal the December after the ban.
Different deal.
I was transfering to a sibling. I don't recall the date, but Oct 22nd sticks in my head for some reason, so let's use that date. As I recall, no one knew when this Oct. 22 cut off date would occur. By happenstance, I initiated the transfer on the 21st (my gun). Next day, the freeze came into effect and initially "they" stated anything not transferred as of 12.01AM on the 22nd, wouldn't be, and there was an uproar. "They" then stated that any transfers that were initiated before 12.01AM of the 22nd, would carry through! GOLD! I thought. Nah, my sibling called to complete, they said no. I called to inquire, they said no. I insisted that I had met their criteria, they wanted proof, so I provided it...then they said no.I received the approval for a different gun from another deal the December after the ban.
In the case of a denial, shouldn't a person get some notice??
In your case, was it selling a pistol that wasn't even built yet? Very confusing posts. A lot of information missing. Little bits coming in on drips and drabs....to paraphrase..
