    The majority of guns crimes in Canada are committed with guns that were smuggled in from tithe US, where it is (relatively speaking) trivially easy to obtain guns.

    America’s lax attitude towards weapons directly leads to Canada’s gun death problem.

      The CBSA should be handling that, though; it’s the CBSA’s job to catch people engaging in illegal border activties, e.g. firearms smuggling (I am assuming that you are insinuating that it is the USA’s job to fix our problem).

        They do catch a lot, but no border control in any non-authoritarian country can catch 100%
