The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Most guns used in crimes in Canada enter illegally across the border.

In Ontario, Canada’s most populous province, 91 percent of handguns recovered from crimes in 2024 came in illegally from the United States, according to the provincial government. In Toronto, the country’s biggest city, 88 percent of all firearms recovered from crimes in 2024 were smuggled across the border, up from 51 percent in 2014, according to the Toronto police. The actual figures are almost certainly higher because many recovered guns have been tampered with to make them untraceable, the police said.
