No they are not. That is because femicide is not about # of women killed compared to men. It's about how/why women killed, distinct from how men killed, both killed primarily by men.

One of 12 things that are completely legal in 🇨🇦Canada that might surprise you... "Keeping unregistered long guns: Canada has strict gun laws compared to the 🇺🇸US, but one aspect of its firearms policy tends to surprise people from other countries. Non-restricted long guns, such as many common hunting rifles and shotguns, do not need to be registered in a national database. The long-gun registry was abolished in 2012 under the @CPC_HQ gvt, and the requirement to register these types of firearms was eliminated along with it. Licensed gun owners can legally possess these firearms without them appearing in any central tracking system, which many find counterintuitive given Canada’s otherwise careful approach to gun control. A valid Possession and Acquisition License is still required to own any firearm legally in the country. But the absence of a registration requirement for non-restricted long guns remains one of the more quietly surprising elements of Canadian firearms law." -Travel Culture Life #image=7" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">msn.com/en-ca/money/to…
