This office assists with the federal regulation of firearms within the province. While the main processing centre is in Miramichi, New Brunswick, regional offices like this one (often co-located with other RCMP or municipal services) support the Chief Firearms Officer (CFO) of Alberta in administering the Firearms Act.
