We've been visiting Canada for ten years or so, and never bring our guns with us.
On this crossing, the Customs Agent,very nicely,asked several different ways about guns.
The first lady asked the normal quetions, and also asked if we had a safe on board. We have a small fire-proof lock box in which we keep our passports, health records, etc. She then directed us to a spot for a thorough inspection.
Questions then asked?
Do you own weapons? (Yes)
Do you keep them in your safe? (No)
As a retired military person, did you keep your service weapon? (No, never had one)
Do you have a Concealed Carry license? (Yes)
These questions were interspersed with general chit-chat and other questions.
Another inspector was doing a thorough search of the RV while this was going on.
After the inspection, they wished us a pleasant journey.
I thanked them, told them I appreciated what they were doing and we were on our way to enjoy another couple of months on Vancouver Island.
