| Description | According to Statistics Canada, the stereotype rings true: Canadians are far less likely to be killed with a gun than their American counterparts.
In a study released Tuesday called Deaths Involving Firearms, the agency says that in 2000, the rate of Canadian homicides involving firearms was just 0.5 out of every 100,000 people. The rate in America was almost eight times higher, or 3.8 per 100,000. |
