What is the current status of the options paper, Airsoft in Canada: Partnership Through Accountability?
The options paper was completed with input from airsoft players and retailers from across Canada and submitted to the Commissioner of Firearms and the Chief Firearms Officer for Northwest Region shortly before the policy consultation deadline of September 30, 2003, set by the CFC to solicit public feedback on general comments and proposed regulations concerning the current and its related regulations. A reply to the options paper was received by the Airsoft Initiative on November 10, 2003. The Federal Government has indicated that the our options paper was successfully considered in the policy consultation process for the Firearms Act, and the options paper has also been considered and forwarded to various agencies and departments within the Federal Government, specifically the Criminal Law Policy and Community Justice Branch at the Department of Justice. A copy was also sent to CCRA.
