Until you look at the INDIVIDUAL STATES that have CCW/OCW Laws.
Those states have LESS CRIME than Canada... especially violent crime.(Texas, Montana etc)

A comparison of Houston TX. and Chicago Il.

Houston had less murders and rapes, but far more robberies, burglaries, assaults, thefts...
not quiet the 4-12 margin you're describing.
