1999 Murders w/firearms
USA 8259
Canada 165
It seems pretty alarming until you consider it's a rare event:
USA 0.03 per 1000 people
Canada 0.02 per 1000 people
And not really evidence of a political problem:
Saudi Arabia 0 per 1000 people
...and thus, probably not really of concern to most people, unless they want to make a dopey political point of it.
