Date: Fri, Sep 25, 1998,
Greetings/Bonjour: les nouvelles de la semaine le 25 septembre 1998
1. Les Jeux Olympiques/Olympic Games in 2000
The Sdyney Olympics are a long way
off, but the organizing committee is sharing developments with us. The
www.sydney.olympic.org is your information source for both SOCOG and SPOC Sydney.
Les Jeux Olympiques de Sydney sont très loines, mais la comité voudrait nous informer que la construction terminera en 1999. La site de compétition de tir à l'arc sera bon avec beaucoup d'arbres nouvelles et du grand gazon nouveau aussi. La site coûte 3,000,000$ et aura la capacité de 4.000 spectateurs et sera proche de la stade centrale. Grace à l'Australie, le tir à l'arc retournera d'un payé plus sympathique de notre sport.

3. FIREARMS ACT TO BE IMPLEMENTED ON DECEMBER 1, 1998
(Please note that I will be forwarding only those articles that are of reasonable length or direct import to our membership. If you wish complete information, contact the numbers and people listed below.)
Ottawa, Sept. 21, 1998 The Honorable Anne McLellan, Minister of Justice and Attorney General of Canada, today announced that the implementation of the new Firearms Act will occur on December 1, 1998.
" I have just received
representation from the law enforcement community, particularly in
The delivery of the firearms control program is a complex initiative that involves the federal government, provincial governments and law enforcement authorities. The Government of Canada and participating provincial governments have been working towards implementation on October 1 as previously announced. The system is ready to go, but additional time will ensure that the enhanced level of public safety- the key objective of the Firearms Act - is achieved consistently across the country.
The implementation plan will now take shape in the following manner:
-The Federal Government's automated system for licensing and registration will be deployed in the field as originally planned on October 1, to facilitate additional training of federal and provincial personnel. -Training programs for police officers, Justices of the Peace and Crown Attorneys will continue through the fall. -Forms will be available in postal outlets across the country on October 1, which will allow for submission of licensing and registration applications. -The toll free call centre - 1-800-731-4000 - will continue to be available for general information and assistance in filling out forms. -As of December 1, 1998, the applications already submitted will be processed. The fee schedule for registration and licensing will continue to offer the low rate of $10 for registration of all firearms currently owned and $10 for a possession licence for a full year - until December 1, 1999.
The Firearms Act calls for the licensing of all gun owners by January 1, 2001 and the registration of all guns by January 1, 2003. Until December 1, 1998, the current FAC system will remain in place, as well as the role of police forces in administering the current law.

LA LOI SUR LES ARMES À FEU SERA MISE EN APPLICATION LE 1er
DÉCEMBRE 1998
(Si vous avez besoin de toute
l'information, appellez-vous les numéros suivantes.) Ottawa, le 21 septembre
1998 - La ministre de la justice et procureure générale du Canada, Anne
McLellan, a annoncé aujourd'hui que la nouvelle Loi sur les armes à feu sera
mise en application à compter du 1er décembre 1998. "Des représentants des
forces policières et judiciaires, en particulier ceux de l'Ontario, ont demandé
que je leur accorde plus de temps pour la mise en oeuvre du programme. Comme il
est vital que nous puissions assurer un haut niveau de sécurité publique depuis
le début, ces soixante jours additionnels permettront de télécharger en entier
les données policières vitales dans le système. De plus, ils accorderont un
temps de formation plus long pour le personnel des Contrôleurs des armes à feu
au niveau provincial," a déclaré la ministre. "Je crois qu'une
période d'ajustement de deux mois aidera tous nos partenaires, à être tout à
fait prêts pour le lancement le 1er décembre prochain,"a-t-elle ajouté. La
mise en oeuvre du programme de contrôle des armes à feu est
La Loi sur les armes à feu exige que tous les propriétaires d'armes à feu obtiennent un permis d'ici le 1er janvier 2001 et procèdent à l'enregistrement de toutes les armes à feu au plus tard le 1er janvier 2003. Le système actuel d'autorisation d'acquisition d'armes à feu (AAAF) demeurera en vigueur jusqu'au 1er décembre 1998, ainsi que le rôle exercé par les policiers dans la mise en application de la présente loi.

4. News from the Northwest Territories/les nouvelles des Territoires de Nord-Ouest
Greg Loftus is the very active president of the Arctic Archers
Association and has been trying to get territorial approval of the sport
organization. He has several clubs affiliated with AAA and is currently working
on securing an army base hangar for indoor facilities. He was a little
disappointed that many of his regular members went fishing or skateboarding,
but we all can relate to that. With any luck, Greg's club will be running a
Canbow programme this October. Good luck and let the rest of
