The question would be,is there a decrease in gun crimes in Toronto based on increase gun regulations.

Detroit is irrelevant in that question.


  • In 2017 there was a total of 395 shootings;
  • In 2016 there was a total of 407 shootings;
  • In 2015 there was a total of 288 shootings;
  • In 2014 there was a total of 177 shootings.

It would appear that the numbers doubled in the space of 4 years.

Sorry Canuky no need to wiggle out of anything,once again useing a simple search produces numbers that are there in black and white,okay there is also a purple link.

Based on that would you say

Gun crimes in Toronto have increased or decreased based on tighter gun restrictions?

Gun violence in downtown Toronto up 167% so far in 2018

With five months still left in 2019, Toronto has already surpassed the number of shooting incidents we saw during the entirety of 2018 — itself a record-breaking year for gun violence with 238 shootings reported.

It would appear that the amount of crimes useing a gun is increasing in both the United States and Canada.

The difference is the more restrictive regulations put in place in Canada are not haveing the desired effect,maybe it boils down the level of violence is increasing.

Pull the stats from London also they are having a record level,or epidemic as they refer it to,of knife stabbings and they cannot even legaly own a gun without massive restrictions.

So the level of violence is increasing worldwide,the weapon of choice is just the prop,so why is the level of violence increasing?

Not enough safe spaces?
