‘How gold becomes guns’: heist spotlights illegal US-Canada gun trade

The arrests that followed a “sensational” gold heist have shed light on the illegal gun trade between the US and Canada.

Thousands of gold bars worth C$20m ($14.5m; £11.6m) were stolen from the Toronto airport in Canada a year ago.

Police have since said the gold was sold for cash to buy guns in the US.
