Is British proof required in Canada for resale? Or was the gun sold in England in 59'?

We don't have any proof laws in Canada. We're basically the same as the U.S.. As far as I know all have to be proof tested before sale or ownership transfers in countries with proof laws, but I'm not sure if a personal gun brought in when moving needs to be tested. The use on passenger ships sounds plausible.
