You really can't read, can you? The _rate_ in Canada is far, far lower
than in the US. It will never be equal, since no other western country
is as violent as the US.
What's of interest is the increase in the per-capita RATE of violent crime,
And that rate is much, much lower outside the US. Pay more attention,
dickhead.
