Possession and Acquisition License

PAL

If you are planning to obtain a Possession and Acquisition License (previously called a FAC) for non-restricted firearms, you may use your pre-1994 Manitoba Hunter Education Course certificate to fulfill the Safety Training Certification requirement.

The Manitoba Wildlife Federation was instrumental in “grandfathering” Manitoba Hunter Education course graduates for the training course requirements for obtaining Possession and Acquisition Licenses.

If you did not take the Manitoba Hunter Education Course prior to 1994, you are required to take the Canadian Firearm Safety Course when applying for a Possession & Acquisition License (PAL)
