Also not all gun crimes are committed by outlaws. It hard to tell how many legal gun owners snap.
The new report cautioned, however, that there are gaps in data where guns are used, including the type of firearms, ownership and storage.
There is “no consistent definition of a shooting applied by police services in Canada, nor are there consistent criteria used to assess whether a shooting actually occurred,” it said.
“Of particular concern, there is currently little information available to determine the source of firearms used in crime: for example, whether a gun used in a crime was stolen, illegally purchased or smuggled into the country. This information is sometimes not recorded by police services, recorded inconsistently or, in some cases, the information is simply not available.”
