I carefully looked at the deaths recorded by the SIU in Ontario for 2013 and, a little less carefully, for
2014. I rounded a good bit for
speed in the extrapolatory math for Canada as a whole and as compared to Germany and U.S. The basic results are pretty clear, though. Frontline Canadian police carry guns (unlike UK or Japanese police who kill 0 or 1 person per year on average) and are trained more like U.S police than German police. As a result, in Ontario alone (population 12.85M) there were more shooting deaths by police officers (9) in 2013 than there were in Germany (8) as a whole (population 80M) in 2013.
13 killed, 9 by shooting in Ontario 2013
extrapolates to ~43 killed, ~30 shooting deaths in Canada (using Ontario as 30% of Canadian population) which is ~430 killed, ~300 shooting if population were the same as US, ~100 deaths, 70 shooting if population were the same as Germany *rounded down from 10.5% for Canadian compared to US population for easy maths w/ Canadian population 33.5M, US 319M. Germany pop. 80M Jan. 24 2013 http://www.siu.on.ca/en/news_template.php?nrid=1517 (dies w/ police officer on top of him, inadequate investigation) Feb 7 2013 (shooting) http://www.siu.on.ca/en/news_template.php?nrid=1624 Mar 1 2013 http://www.siu.on.ca/en/news_template.php?nrid=1598 (I've spoken Ricky's sister. When she viewed his corpse, he had a significant bump on his head not present when he left the house that day. The investigation did not comment on this injury at any point. While trying to blame the death on ingestion of drugs narratively, the coroner did not conclude that drugs contributed to death.)
