You just need the PAL to purchase and own the firearm, to handle or shoot a gun you don't need any actual license. Obviously you would go anywhere the gun did so you could verbally give concent to any one asking to handle it on your behalf. Even with the registry I used guns that I did not own and was stopped by the RCMP, but I had a hand written and dated note from my dad to use his gun even had his phone numbers and the RCMP were fine with that.
Back on topic though, in order to get your PAL I know I had to do a hands on test with actual guns. Is that something you would be able to do at all?? If not I would fire off an email to one of the trainers at the Calgary Gun Club or call them and ask. Please let me know what the outcome is I'm very interested how they handle it.
