If you flooded Canada with guns we would have some problems, I'd agree with that.
However we also dont have 200+ years of the same sort of baked in 'Gun Culture' flowing through our veins.
Thats a societal implication that we do not share, so I'd disagree that we would experience the exact same problems.

Up until 1969 Canada had the same gun laws and both countries had relatively the same gun problems per capita. fact is people do stupid things with access to guns, most US gun deaths are because they snap and kill someone or themselves in a fit of rage not planned shootings or self defense.
