As I understand it, the Law Enforcement Safety Act of 2004 (which is Federal) gives off duty law enforcement permission to carry firearms off duty.
The general idea is that law enforcement are not ever really off duty.
I have no knowledge of Canadian laws regarding off duty officers and the ins and outs of what weapons, if any are permitted.
