Meeting place for Newbies and Mentors - Maritimes

Hello all!

I'm from NL, i hope i'm in the right forum to ask these questions.

I plan to move to a new house new address (same town though). How do i have my home address changed on my PAL/rPAL?
And do i have it changed before or after i move to my new house?
How much would the fees be for the change of address?
And can i still use my firearms hunting (small game season's almost over though) while i'm in transition of my home addresses?

Thanks to all answers.

This should get you pointed in the proper direction;
