Any urge to point the finger at the U.S. for weapons smuggled across the border is simply misguided, U.S. Ambassador David Wilkins diplomat said Thursday. "I don't think it's fair," he told The Canadian Press in an interview.
Canadians seeking a scapegoat should look in the mirror, he suggested.
"The majority of guns coming from the United States are purchased by Canadian citizens," Wilkins said.
"(This is) in violation of our state laws - and (they're) smuggled back across the border in violation of your laws."
