Don't forget also that the parents of really good hockey players might also have to deal with their kid getting calls from agents, even at the Bantam level (meaning they are 13 years old and potentially have an agent).

Yup, and that's not even counting the additional strength/conditioning stuff they have to do, or fund-raising drives. The time/money investment for these kids is just bananas.

shooting to injure is loving stupid.

They call it "deadly force" for a reason. It is absolutely your LAST option, the option when all other non or less-lethal options have been expended. Only to be used (in theory) when your own life is in imminent danger

If you're at point-blank range, you're not trying to aim at a particular body part, you are within arm's reach of someone and attempting to stop someone (theoretically, again) who is actively attempting to kill you.
If you are not at point blank range, pistols (especially police types) are not incredibly accurate. Especially with your blood pumping, adrenaline going, etc. You are aiming for center of mass, which gives you better chance of hitting your target.

Again, police using a firearm is the very last step on the escalation of force ladder. Unfortunately some police forces jump several rungs to the very top far too often.

It's more that they see firearms as being a viable option in less-lethal situations, whereas here a firearm is considered a lethal force option and is used accordingly.

That is a really weird and interesting perspective. It goes against everything that western policing teaches about use of deadly force, but it seems to work for the Czechs I guess.

There's still quite a bit of manufacturing done in Canada, quite a bit of it is pretty sexy low-volume stuff. Honda and Toyota have massive plants in Alliston and Cambridge that tend to be among their highest-efficiency plants. Harris L3 is based out of Burlington, they make optics for everything from traffic choppers to drones to satellites. Collins Aerospace manufactures landing gear components for airbus and boeing. Husky in Bolton is without question the world leader in PET injection molding.

So yeah the days of Canada making washing machines and transistor radios are gone but a whole lot of very specialized, high technology work is still one here, and much of that is for a simple reason;
Anything made in a Chinese factory will have it's IP copied almost immediately. This is a well known fact in the manufacturing world.
