Canada's homicide rate for 2007 was 1.8 per 100,000 people, compared to 5.7 in the US. Other categories of crime also fell.
What can the US learn from Canada when it comes to fighting crime and pushing down the murder rate? What is Canada doing right that we are doing wrong?
I imagine if we cut our population by 90% we might share their statistics.
Personally Canadas crime rate doesn't concern me & its not worth the trade off in personal liberties & freedom. But folks are sure welcome to vacate the US for Canada if they choose.

What personal liberties & freedom do you think you have that we don't have in Canada?
They have tougher restrictions on gun ownership, especially pistols and automatic weapons.
That is not the answer.
Criminals will always have guns, the harder you make it for honest people to own guns, the more vulnerable you make them.
