Are you comparing households to total population? (figuring average of 3 people per household)
Also, this percentage does NOT reflect the percentage of actual assault rifles in Canada, vrs Switzerland. Perhaps we can look at it by type, since assault rifles seem to be the "big evil" that the media is hyping right now.
(even though 98% of gun-related crimes are commited with handguns)
