Culturally the worst thing you can do is tell us not to do something. That just goads us in to doing it, with pride too.

Your country has laws against jaywalking. I can't imagine not being allowed to cross roads wherever it's convenient.

Canadians are more willing to accept orders.

Are you basing this claim on anything concrete? Most countries believe that they are better than other countries in various ways. Usually it isn't actually true, it's just nationalism and ignorance of what other countries are like.

Being a former British Imperial holding will do that.

Most of the US was part of the British Empire too, remember?

Geographically we're too rural and too spread out to either enforce those laws or be able to respond to crimes quick enough to de-incentivize gun ownership.

US urban population: 81.6%

Canada urban population: 81.8%

US population density: 85 per square mile

Canada population density: 9 per square mile

i.e. both the US and Canada are heavily urbanized countries, but with low population density due to their large wilderness areas (though Canada's population density is significantly lower).

Wildlife wise with the exception of Canada, though most of their population is centralized in the East, we're the one developed country that still has large and medium sized predators in large numbers.

Most of the US's population is centralized in the East. I really don't believe that Americans are typically at a greater threat from wild animals than all other developed countries. Besides, most countries have exceptions to allow people who genuinely need firearms to have them (e.g. farmers can have shotguns to protect their livestock, but city dwellers can't have pistols for """"""self-defence"""""").
