Just asked Google and was told in 2022, the total Canadian population is 3.893 millions.... That's say we have more than half of Canadians are PAL holders??

Hi Yep Yep.

It seems your decimal point is off one place.

It should be 38.93 millions.

Now, not sure what the actual 2022 numbers were:
"Source for 2022 Data: RCMP, Response to TheGunBlog.ca, 30 January 2023"
What I posted, was from the RCMP.

YepYep - what was the source for your GOOGLE numbers at 1.6 million higher?
this is NOT an attack against your post, I am just curious. Oft times, different
results come from Google, depending on who makes the request, it seems.

Daryl, YepYep's number was an incorrect population number for Canada. He was not quoting a different number of PAL holders.

LOL I wouldn't be able to read one word, without my glasses.
Bifocals I use and corrected vision is 20/15 & had been for the last 4 sets of glasses. The first 2 sets, only to 20/20.
