The RCMP Firearms Reference Table records the Homemade Single Shot Cartridge Pistol (single-shot, chambered in .22 Long Rifle, .22 Magnum, .22 Rimfire and 9 more, made in Unknown) as Restricted in Canada, under FRN 34541.

A restricted PAL, and the firearm must be registered to you before you take possession. Transport generally requires an authorization to transport, and if this is a handgun the October 2022 transfer freeze applies to most transfers between individuals.
