RPAL RENEWAL questions

hi i will be renewing rpal and have two questions

Has anyone had their licence not renewed or revoked because they seen dr for anxiety , depression . alchohol abuse and checked yes in part c on application to renew?

My previous personal reference to obtain rpal ended up not being a friend at all . he was responible for some bad things and we hate eachother since .. Do references get called for rpal renewal ?

I would call up the RCMP and ask if references will be called on a renewal application as you've lost touch with one of your references since you last renewed.

I would think a renewal before the expiry date does not require contacting a reference you used 5 or more years ago. In fact, if you let it expire, you'll have to fill out a whole new application as if you were applying for a new PAL. In this case, you will need to re-specify your references for contact. FYI, in my case this is what happened. I gave 2 new references on my new application for PAL.
 
thanks for the reply i will consider calling cfo and inquiring :/ i will wait for more replys here first to test the water:p
 
If you've seen a doctor for a mental illness, indicate it (I'm sure there is a data system somewhere that may not be specific but would indicate this to them that they access) and outline in detail what occurred, any medications you still take, if any and most importantly if it is still ongoing or 'resolved' as well as information/records that demonstrate that you have continued with the shooting sports and do not pose a threat i.e. gun club sign in, if you instructed in a course etc.
 
yes indeed thanks for your reply , my situation is actually not trifecta just throwing other examples out there , i was in car accident and seen counseller for anxiety, depression because turning into a worry wart being off injured and worrying about future with my work,and depressed because to injured to enjoy life . i will explain in renewal and hope they read it
