I started trying to get my FAC last summer.  Today, I received a phone call 
from the RCMP informing me my 28 day (or however many days it is) waiting 
period is over.  Just a few more weeks and I should have it.  Cost me over a 
hundred dollars in exam fees, application fees, getting my photograph, etc.  
Sure would be harder to get an illegal gun though.  Might have to spend a few 
hours at it.  But a symbol for feminists is important.  Rock has handed them 
our head on a platter.  We were just bad children anyway.
