That evidence is very clear. It is well established, dating back for decades. Even though the Americans have issues with response to the CDC being unallowed to fund gun research, the gun research continues to go on. It's been very, very clear that keeping a gun in the home is associated with a fivefold increase in suicide. With respect to intimate partner violence, again, there's about a fivefold increase in risk of death by the mere presence of a firearm in the home. I would imagine that the Canadian Paediatric Society might be involved at some point. They also have released a policy statement—earlier this year, perhaps, or late last year—that a gun in the home is associated with a high risk of pediatric accidental injury.
The mere presence of a gun, regardless of the type of gun, is associated with higher death rates—for suicide, intimate partner violence, probably homicide, and certainly childhood accidents.
