Several ambulances were called to the scene. Police say all victims received immediate medical attention but one man was rushed to a hospital in Ajax with serious injuries but was then airlifted to a trauma centre in downtown Toronto.

That victim is 19 years old, according to authorities with ORNGE air ambulance.

The other three are said to be in stable condition and receiving treatment at a local hospital.

Investigators have set up a perimeter around the crime scene as officers scour the area for evidence and search for suspects.

They are also looking to speak with anyone who may have witnessed the shooting.

The Emergency Task Force is also on the scene.

canada - 500ish
united states - 14,000ish

can't remember the exact numbers from 2 weeks ago when i looked them up. guns or not united states is blood thirsty. when you start a thread about russia with an upside down russian flag we can talk about russia. last week 1000 people got hurt from a falling rock in russia and no one cared.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gun_politics_in_Norway

To own a gun in Norway, one must document a use for the gun. By far the most common grounds for civilian ownership are hunting and sports shooting, in that order. Other needs can include special guard duties or self-defence, but the first is rare unless the person shows identification confirming that he or she is a trained guard or member of a law-enforcement agency and the second is practically never accepted as a reason for gun ownership.
There are special rules for collectors of guns. They are exempt from many parts of the regulation, but, in turn, they must meet even more narrow qualifications. Collectors may purchase, but not fire without permission, all kinds of guns in their respective areas of interest, which they have defined in advance.
Ownership is regulated in paragraph 7,[1] and responsibility for issuing a gun ownership license is given to the police authority in the applicant's district.
Rifle and shotgun ownership permission can be given to "sober and responsible" persons 18 years or older. The applicant for the permission must document a need for the weapon. Two exceptions exist to this age qualification. Persons under the age of 18, but over 16 may apply for rifle or shotgun ownership licence with the consent of parents or guardian. For handguns, the lowest ownership age is 21 with no exceptions allowed. For inherited weapons, it is up to the local police chief to make a decision based on the individual facts of the case.
An applicant must have a clean police record in order to obtain an ownership license.

Ummm what about the murder rate there champ? If less guns simply meant less murder then ALL countries would show this. Instead you point and yell when you find one that supports your theory, but when all the other ones don't you dismiss em.
