If you need religion to have good morals then you don't actually have good morals.
Juster - thanks for posting the link to the Barnes judgement.
The Barnes case was in the Ontario Court of Justice.
What sort of precedent does this establish? Ontario only? Federal?
I'm no lawyer, but I'm guessing federal. Although the case went before Ontario Provincial Court, the judgement would be on a federal law (safe storage I think falls under the firearms act) which I'm guessing would set federal precedent. I could be wrong though.

Growing up, a gun cabinet was generally made of wood and had glass doors. They'd have one of those cheap brass locks that was useless for anyone but curious children. The metal stack-on cabinets meet the definition for a safe regardless of how it's advertised.
In reality, a lock only keeps an honest man out. I do what I have to to be in compliance with our regime. I have one safe and three gym lockers in my gun room.
