News / Politics / Activism Declared ASFCP Firearms When Formatted For Guns Per 100,000 People

Please correct my math if I made any errors, and I will edit the post accordingly.

It's interesting to see which provinces have the culture that caved in the most.

Alberta

(7,334 ÷ 4,800,768) × 100,000 ≈ 152.8

British Columbia

(15,600 ÷ 5,646,467) × 100,000 ≈ 276.3

Manitoba

(2,442 ÷ 1,465,000) × 100,000 ≈ 166.7

New Brunswick

(1,150 ÷ 844,000) × 100,000 ≈ 136.3

Newfoundland and Labrador

(484 ÷ 545,000) × 100,000 ≈ 88.8

Northwest Territories

(81 ÷ 45,000) × 100,000 ≈ 180.0

Nova Scotia

(1,702 ÷ 1,079,000) × 100,000 ≈ 157.8

Nunavut

(9 ÷ 40,000) × 100,000 ≈ 22.5

Ontario

(27,487 ÷ 15,996,989) × 100,000 ≈ 171.8

Prince Edward Island

(170 ÷ 177,000) × 100,000 ≈ 96.0

Quebec

(9,801 ÷ 9,100,249) × 100,000 ≈ 107.7

Saskatchewan

(1,255 ÷ 1,240,000) × 100,000 ≈ 101.2

Yukon

(134 ÷ 47,000) × 100,000 ≈ 285.1

Thank you, I didn't know where to find the PAL holder # so I settled for population

And the 3 provinces that require front and back license plates for cars are the top 3, coincidence? I think not...
