Canadian Coroner and Medical Examiner Database, January 2006 to May 2025
Released: 2025-06-04
New data from the Canadian Coroner and Medical Examiner Database (CCMED) are now available upon request. The CCMED is a database developed at Statistics Canada in collaboration with the provincial and territorial Chief Coroners and Chief Medical Examiners and the Public Health Agency of Canada. The CCMED combines information from 12 provincial and territorial databases to provide national level information on the circumstances related to deaths reported to and investigated by coroners and medical examiners.
The data from the CCMED are also available in the research data centres.
The availability of national-level information about circumstances of deaths strengthens the ability to respond and protect Canadians from further preventable deaths.
