I mean really, out of all the places to get mugged, you think Canada would be the safest.

Cause we want more 7/11's.

As much as I would like to think that Canada is safer than other places that would be stupid. Combine a heavy drinking culture and easy access to recreational drugs with cities with high population densities, ridiculously spread out towns and a police force that is only marginally effective due to several reasons, chiefly not enough personnel to cover the landmass that is Canada, and you're going to have issues. They may be different issues than those faced in other countries where there is less gun control but they are still apparent. The city that I live in has a very high stabbing rate, for example.

They expect Canada to be a wonderful place because they have given it so much credit when it was known for being a peace keeper in the international sphere back in the days and maintaining a low crime rate. We still have druggies, gangs, murderers , rapists and people who beat up marathon runners.

You still have a lower crime rate than my city. Feels like there's a stabbing or shooting every other day. And generally in pairs of 3. Hell there were 3 different group killings on new years eve in my town, where each murderer killed like 3 people.

Every country has problems with crime. It's just dependent on how much the media actually covers them. There are also political, cultural, and monetary factors that contribute to the amount of violence.

True and it's also important to note that lots of crimes go unreported, so the crime statistics aren't very accurate.
