It is effectively illegal to carry concealed handguns in Canada, Although there is permit that allows people to carry if they can prove they need to protect their lives but the permit is very rarely issued. Defensive use of firearms is uncommon in Canada.

A concealed firearm or CCW (Concealed Carry Weapon) is any weapon from which a shot is discharged by gun powers that a person places out of sight or tries to prevent disclosure or recognition of the firearm.
There are many different types of handguns you can use as a concealed firearm once you have your ccw permit or meet your state's requirements (Alaska and Vermont do not issue permit, you must only meet their requirements). You want to make sure that no one can tell you are carrying a concealed firearm which also means no printing. Printing means that you can see the firearm through the clothing whether you can physically see through it or your clothing rests on it or gets caught on it so that it is noticeably a concealed firearm. Many firearms manufactures create firearms mainly for the purpose of concealed carry. These are of course smaller firearms which are much easier to conceal than a full size handgun. To discuss which firearm would be the best for you, visit the USA Carry Concealed Firearm Forums.
There are also many different types of ccw holsters to choose from. You should get a good quality leather or kydex ccw holster fitted for you specific gun. You spend good money for you guns so don't go with a cheap one-fits-all nylon holster. They have their places but not as a daily ccw holster. To discuss different types of ccw holsters, visit the USA Carry CCW Holster Forums.
