U.S. Gun Smuggling Linked to Rising Canadian Violence

The surge of U.S. firearms smuggled into Canada is significantly contributing to the rising gun violence in Canadian cities, with law enforcement tracing over 21,000 illegal firearms back to the United States. Notably, officials report that up to 90% of crime guns in Ontario originate from south of the border, prompting serious concerns from police and public health advocates alike about the lethal impacts of gun violence across Canadian communities.

In response to this unsettling trend, Canadian authorities highlight various smuggling methods, including hidden shipments and cross-border tactics, emphasizing the urgency for tighter regulations and international cooperation. Law enforcement efforts have uncovered smuggling operations, such as a recent case where 170 firearms were concealed in suitcases disguised as holiday gifts, underscoring the lucrative nature of this illegal market with prices for smuggled guns soaring from $600 in the U.S. to nearly $9,000 in Canada.
