Americans will start screaming and shooting at the Capitol if someone suggests restricting access to armor-piercing bullets.   Canadians are baffled by the existence of water guns.  
Of course, there are Canadians with guns - some of whom are militant weapons lovers and rail against the government's stringent gun laws. But eventually they all end up moving to Texas. 
Canada is happy to be thought of as bland and mousy.   It wants to avoid any similarity to America, the naked-armed redneck sitting on the porch, cleaning its rifles.
