Here is a definition of restricted and prohibited firearms, from the RCMP website. The link also includes a complete list of all firearms that are prohibited, and exemptions to prohibited status. Notice the definition of prohibited includes "any firearm prescribed as prohibited", basically if the RCMP feels that a firearm should be prohibited they can add it to the list. Even if it doesn't fall within the other criteria.
Definition of a Prohibited Firearm
The Criminal Code states that a prohibited firearm is:
a handgun with a barrel length of 105 mm or less;
a handgun designed or adapted to discharge 25 or 32 calibre ammunition;
