The gun-related homicide is believed to be the highest in the city's history.

The murder rate hits a new high, and all the while Canada's government has been gradually taking away the right of it's honest, law abiding citizens to own and use firearms.

That would indicate to a logical mind that the government's policy of disarming law abiding people is increasing the crime rate rather than reducing it. But then logical minds realize that criminals are by definition people who do not obey laws, including gun laws.

OTOH, Most of those getting shot are gun carrying, drug pushing gang members - so there is a silver lining in every cloud, nes't pas?
