Okay, from the Code:
First, here is the black:
“handgun” means a firearm that is designed, altered or intended to be aimed and fired by the action of one hand, whether or not it has been redesigned or subsequently altered to be aimed and fired by the action of both hands;
“imitation firearm” means any thing that imitates a firearm, and includes a replica firearm;
“prohibited device” means
( a) any component or part of a weapon, or any accessory for use with a weapon, that is prescribed to be a prohibited device,
( b) a handgun barrel that is equal to or less than 105 mm in length, but does not include any such handgun barrel that is prescribed, where the handgun barrel is for use in international sporting competitions governed by the rules of the International Shooting Union,
( c) a device or contrivance designed or intended to muffle or stop the sound or report of a firearm,
( d) a cartridge magazine that is prescribed to be a prohibited device, or
( e) a replica firearm;
This is the white:
(3) For the purposes of sections 91 to 95, 99 to 101, 103 to 107 and 117.03 of this Act and the provisions of the Firearms Act, the following weapons are deemed not to be firearms:
(a) any antique firearm;
(b) any device that is
(i) designed exclusively for signalling, for notifying of distress, for firing blank cartridges or for firing stud cartridges, explosive-driven rivets or other industrial projectiles, and
(ii) intended by the person in possession of it to be used exclusively for the purpose for which it is designed;
(c) any shooting device that is
(i) designed exclusively for the slaughtering of domestic animals, the tranquillizing of animals or the discharging of projectiles with lines attached to them, and
(ii) intended by the person in possession of it to be used exclusively for the purpose for which it is designed; and
( d) any other barrelled weapon, where it is proved that the weapon is not designed or adapted to discharge
(i) a shot, bullet or other projectile at a muzzle velocity exceeding 152.4 m per second or at a muzzle energy exceeding 5.7 Joules, or
(ii) a shot, bullet or other projectile that is designed or adapted to attain a velocity exceeding 152.4 m per second or an energy exceeding 5.7 Joules.
However, realize that these sections DO apply to a prohibited device and are not excluded in the definition:
86. (1) Every person commits an offence who, without lawful excuse, uses, carries, handles, ships, transports or stores a firearm, a prohibited weapon, a restricted weapon, a prohibited device or any ammunition or prohibited ammunition in a careless manner or without reasonable precautions for the safety of other persons.
87. (1) Every person commits an offence who, without lawful excuse, points a firearm at another person, whether the firearm is loaded or unloaded.
88. (1) Every person commits an offence who carries or possesses a weapon, an imitation of a weapon, a prohibited device or any ammunition or prohibited ammunition for a purpose dangerous to the public peace or for the purpose of committing an offence.
90. (1) Every person commits an offence who carries a weapon, a prohibited device or any prohibited ammunition concealed, unless the person is authorized under the Firearms Act to carry it concealed.
Black and white make grey.
So in a nutshell, while you are in a game it looks like you can have these things, but they appear to definitely fall under the definition of a prohibited device. Once the pink teddy is captured, though, you better have those things squared away. It will only take a few incidents of these things turning up in peoples cars or tucked in their waist bands to have someone take a hard look at them. Most likely, some Johnny Hardcore will have one of these things at a party, alcohol will be involved and he will end up getting waxed by one of my brothers. When the average Joe Canadian sees these things on CTV news, they will say "ew, gad, those are too real looking". Next thing you know, Order in Counsel, good bye pretend guns.
If this sport was just about tactics and competition, you could have an olive drab cube that shot BB's that could serve the same function. If you Airsofters are really being honest with yourselves, you will admit that the only reason that you would accumulate kit like this is to "look cool". Not a problem, until cool gets someone killed.
BTW, the "maybe I'll just sneak it across the border" idea;
104. (1) Every person commits an offence who imports or exports
(a) a firearm, a prohibited weapon, a restricted weapon, a prohibited device or any prohibited ammunition, or
(b) any component or part designed exclusively for use in the manufacture of or assembly into an automatic firearm,
otherwise than under the authority of the Firearms Act or any other Act of Parliament or any regulations made under an Act of Parliament.
Punishment
(2) Every person who commits an offence under subsection (1)
(a) is guilty of an indictable offence and liable to imprisonment for a term not exceeding five years
