Try it anywhere in Nova Scotia, James. I suspect the regulations for transport are the same in your province. Even hunting on property not your own, not within couple hundred metres from a residence. To town for repairs or returns: cased; in the home, guns and ammo separate locations, trigger locks, locked rooms etc.

I can't imagine a bearded guy in black toting an assault rifle along the gorgeous Georgian brick landscapes of Port Hope not being stopped by police within minutes of being reported. Farley Mowat, no anti-gunner, would have taken him out on sight. Police hereabouts investigate gun sightings regularly, mostly benign.
