I mean they cant supersede the government of Canada's laws right?

There is a provision in the firearms act that allows people to posses prohibited firearms if they’re in an agreement with the province.

The Runkle Of The Bailey post I made yesterday explains it in great detail, essentially the Commissioner that Saskatchewan is appointing is entering in an agreement with firearms owners where people maintain possession of their firearms until they’re paid in full, once they’re paid they must dispose of their firearm in accordance with the law.

In theory, no. They seem to be testing that.
