Last year Public Safety Minister Ralph Goodale claimed there were more than 1,200 break-ins a year in Canada in which guns were stolen.**********
He credited StatsCan for that figure.
However, StatsCan’s database shows five “robberies to steal firearms” in 2013, 16 in 2014, 12 in 2015 and 18 in both 2016 and 2017.
There may not have been 1,200 break-ins to steal guns in the 151 years since Confederation.
