Oh, it does. There's a French-style clause in there somewhere that sez if their gun laws don't work, blame:
- Bush
- conservatives
- the NRA

When you criminalize gun ownership, only criminals will have guns.

"Residents of Canada's biggest city are living in fear of increasing gun violence and blame their neighbour, the United States, for exporting their gun culture and weapons north"
I blame Canada for exporting socialism and leftism South.

Uh huh. Right. And law-abiding citizens being effectively disarmed by Canadian gun-grabbing has absolutely nothing to do with this.

Here just south of the border in North Dakota, everyone owns guns, and crime is the lowest of any state.

"By and large, Canadians are pacifists. We're not gunslingers. This violence is a real departure for us," said police Superintendent Roy Pilkington Riiight....Just check out http://progun.ca

Their problem is they haven't imported our gun culture. If they had, they'd have a lot less violent crime.

Canada's first such bust that included a bullet-proof baseball cap and a military gas mask What a bunch of wusses.

Basicaly they are blaming others than themselves, implying the whole US should be subservient to Toronto, implying that they protect their own criminals and blame us instead.... Canada is a slave state, period.

ITS ALL BUSH'S FAULT! Its never Canada's anti-gun regime that's screwed up the situation in Toronto.

"There is fear of retaliation if they speak to police in some sectors of the community," Pilkington said,
blaming mostly gangs, some with international links, fighting over turf and drug sales and using guns imported from the United States, for the violence.
In its August edition, weekly Canadian magazine Maclean's noted that gang murders had tripled since the early 1990s in this country, in contrast to an overall drop in violence. The magazine blamed the rise in part on illegal arms from the neighboring United States.

Canada just wasted billions harassing all its honest citizenry gun owners.
You mean criminals aren't following these totalitarian laws? AMAZING! This phenomenon is clearly America's fault!
To: Brad Cloven
With all those guns, North Dakota must be a depopulated, bullet pocked wasteland. You just can't be right.
