Canada: billions for gun control, but pennies for defense. There must be a country somwhere dumber than Canada, but I can't think of one offhand. Not even France is THAT stupid.
Believe it or not, the NYPD is larger, better armed, better led, and far more competent than the Canadian Army.
Current active strength data:
New York Police Department: 39,110
Canadian Army: 19,000
You can look it up.

I did look it up. That's simply astounding. I had no idea it was THAT low. Wow.
