Do you want to collect and/or shoot guns in Canada? Then yes. If not, no.

I don't know what kind of answer you're expecting. Actually you have to be a relatively upstanding citizen to get the license, so to me it's a source of pride. They won't check references or investigate you at all unless you have a sketchy background with arrests or criminal activity in your household or family members. The only thing I've heard is that if you have an ex-wife or something they might call and ask if you were looking to shoot her.

Also the government only keeps track of restricted weapons. There is no registry for long guns any more. You can drive around with 10 rifles in your backseat and it is legal, as long as they aren't loaded.
