>may I tell them to "Stop or I'll shoot?"

Yes. Why not?

They then have the power to avoid all harm (in both directions), they can even stop and tell you how their family is starving, etc., so you can give them a bag of food and they can return your laptop.

Moreover if they pulled a weapon on you in return I think you'd be warranted in killing them.

>I don't want people doing things like that in Toronto

You want to protect thieves so that they can continue to steal without any risk?
