my brother got me a borrowing liscence to use a gun of his for a deer hunt it cost me 30.00 dollars you fill out one side of the form and he fills out the other side then you send it in they will give you a call asking whay gun he or she will be useing and the general area you will be in and how long he will be useing it then they will give you a temp licence if everything checks out ok .i think there around the petroleum culb in edmonton i dont know the number to call .but it is better to be safe than sorry its to much red tape to get a new one i hope this helps a little good luck.
