Crime Severity Indexes are based on Criminal Code incidents, including traffic violations, as well as other federal statute violations. The base index was set at 100 for 2006 for Canada. Data on the Crime Severity Indexes are available beginning in 1998. Percent changes are based on unrounded values. Populations are based on July 1 estimates from Statistics Canada, Centre for Demography.
