I'd like to see how many American guns are used in Canadian crimes.
"When handguns involved in crimes were traced in 2021, they were overwhelmingly - 85% of the time - found to have come from the United States." There were 8,047 victims of violent crime where a firearm was present in 2021 alone.

Most of them.
