I live in Canada where we have laws that regulate restricted and prohibited firearms. I don't walk around in fear and feel the need to arm myself. If someone takes my stuff I have insurance. If some comes into my house I have a sherwood 5050 hockey stick( no pun intended), and 911.

Just my $0.02

Cheers

P.S. I'll be sure to see some of you profiled on a upcoming episode of Doomsday Preppers. :
Where are you getting your info? those numbers don't seem right.
Also Your laws regulate just about as good as our do.

"Canada has one of the highest rates of gun ownership in the world. There are almost as many rifles per capita in Canada as in the United States.[6] Gun ownership rate is about 29% of households with great regional variations. Typically, rural is much higher than urban, west higher than east. The majority of Canadian firearms include rifles, shotguns, and pistols. Firearms are readily available to licensed Canadian citizens. Fully automatic firearms are an exception and are generally prohibited from private ownership.
