If the numbers quoted in that movie Bowling for Columbine are true then the difference between Canada and the US is not so much the number of guns but the number of crimes comitted with guns which is much higher in the US.

'course then we'd have to read Moores reply and then do doubt we find outselves lost in dozens of websites all with a heavy bias towards one side or they other and we'd hurt our brains trying to decide who was more correct. It's amazing the way people can use statistics to pretty much prove any point they want.
That site does have one glaring error though. Moore was absolutly right about how easy it is to buy ammo in Canada (although I think the law has since changed) I know this for a fact because a few years ago some a-hole down the street got really drunk one night and then went down to Canadaian Tire bought a whole crapload of ammo and procedeed to fire off a few hundred rounds into his neighbouhrs house, killing her in the process.
