as far as i know there is a provision in the arms act where with an authority letter another licence holder can carry the weapon on your behalf for a fortnight.....
An armed man is a citizen. An unarmed man is a subject.

Well he may be able to carry out for a fortnight, but the question is how can the weapon be sent out of the area of jurisdiction?
