It might be a good deterrent for future rioters. But then, probably not.

The problem with that is in a previous thread where this was posted, it was noted that defending one's property with force is illegal in Canada. At the same time, every one of the rioters also faces life in prison for participation in the riot, but I doubt justice will be handed out to 99% of them.
