Are you suggesting per capita is not the best way to measure violence? When law and order types justify mandatory sentencing and spending more on policing and prisons by their assertions that crime in Canada is getting worse, you wouldn't point to the statistics that show per capita crime in Canada has been dropping for 20 years?
