GUN OWNERSHIP in CANADA RISING & WOMEN are THE LEADING DEMOGRAPHIC.
"Gun ownership is also changing demographically: the days when gun owners were almost exclusively older white men like myself are gone, and the gender, age and racial makeup of the gun-owning public is looking a lot more like that of Canada’s general population. Since the 1980s, women have been the fastest-growing demographic of gun owners, now representing 13 per cent of them."

I'm not surprised given the increase in violence against women. Orders of protection are worthless as every police officer will attest. As investigators we aren't entitled to carry a concealed firearm. We no doubt could qualify for one to keep in our apartment but doing so for us would be superfluous.
