@statisticsworld IMO this data would be a lot more useful if it showed law enforcement killings per year per million people:

🇺🇸 USA: 3
🇨🇦 Canada: 1.3
🇦🇺 Australia: 0.6
🇩🇪 Germany: 0.11
🇬🇧 UK: 0.07

Still suggests more training could help, but I suspect there is a lot more involved than only training. Point taken none the less.

@statisticsworld Canada is severely undercounted as many police murders aren't recorded as such. It also only takes a maximum of 3 months to get into RCMP CIRG - which is federal & provincial funded corporate mercenaries & it started up in BC because it's almost all unceded native lands here - still. These stats are FAR from accurate.
