By law, a potential customer must be 18 years of age or older to purchase a firearm or legally maintain possession of one. Citizens of Canada under the age of 18 but over the age of 12 may procure a Minor's Licence which does not allow them to purchase a firearm but allows them to borrow a firearm unsupervised and purchase ammunition. Children under the age of 12 that are found to need a firearm to hunt or trap may also be awarded the Minor's Licence. This is generally reserved for children in remote locations, primarily aboriginal communities that engage in sustenance hunting.
how rediculous is that!?!?!
I can understand the part about 18 year olds being allowed to buy a gun and what not
but kids who are like 13-17 can borrow a gun and shoot it without supervision
what happens if these kids who aren't 18, accidently shoot someone?
does the person who shot the gun get in trouble?
or does the person who loaned he gun to the shooter, get in trouble?
and what if the minor (person under 18) does either hit someone by accident or even on purpose?
would they just go to juvie until they are legal age for jail?
