We've definitely had some big time shooting stories, like last year's killing of Jonathan Bacon or the previous 2009 gang war that saw a big increase in gang violence.
I find it hard to believe that Canada wouldn't have access to a load of guns, I would imagine that the border with the US is pretty porous and it's also a large area for border controls to cover.
