No to the short barrel revolver. It is classified as a concealed weapon in Canada which is illegal. you can have a gun but need permits and registrations and you wont get it overnight.

Absent more facts about you and the gun, an answer is difficult.
It may be impossible to you to get a gun if you have a criminal record, for example.
Some firearms are prohibited. Others are restricted. See the list below to determine where your short barrel revolver falls.
Note that according to the Firearms Act, a handgun with a barrel length of 105 mm (4.1 inches) or less, is prohibited (although there is a list of exceptions to this general rule).
Since you are not 'grandfathered' by the law, this means you cannot possess a prohibited firearm. You need a registration certificate and a firearms license for restricted weapons.

Need to have permit to carry a firearm and be licensed to possess a gun.

Yes, if you immigrate (legally) to the US. Apparently Canada doesn't think its citizens have a right to defend themselves.

no. unless you can come up with a very legitimate and convincing reason why it would be necessary. (good luck with that)
