Well, it's a hunting rifle, and there are several million of those legally in Canada, so actually, probably, no it did not come from the States. Of course, the current Con government under Dear Leader Stephen Harper has canned the long-gun registry, and destroyed all the records, so tracking down the original owner of that firearm will be more difficult than it should have been. The shooter could not have owned it himself; his criminal record disqualified him.
