The Canada Border Services Agency says a man from the United States has been sentenced to 30 months in prison after pleading guilty to the possession of loaded, restricted and prohibited firearms without a license.
A statement from the service says the man was referred for secondary screening while trying to enter Canada at the Pacific Highway border crossing in March.
It says a search of his vehicle revealed two loaded pistols, one of which was prohibited, and four prohibited overcapacity magazines.
The service says C-B-S-A officers arrested and charged the man, who remained in custody pending the resolution of his case in court.
