Suppressors are prohibited, not restricted. Big difference. If they were restricted they would be governed the same way as a restricted firearm or the US tax stamp system.
What is the noise reduction from a suppressor? Does it completely muffle the gunshot making it close to the point of being unheard?
Do the EU countries that allow/require them have large scale problems with suppressors being used in murders?

The restrictions in Canada are largely put in place to decrease the users ability to use them to kill other people.
The kind of things you're talking about, silencers, shorter barrel lengths, etc.. Add nothing to a guns utility, unless your goal is to use them on people.
