1. Geographic variation in female breast cancer incidence and mortality in Canada
Articles and reports: 82-003-X202600500001
Description: Previous research has found variability in cancer incidence and cancer-related outcomes according to place of residence. This study examined geographic variability in the incidence and mortality of breast cancer among females in Canada, using data from the 2021 Canadian Cancer Registry (breast cancer incidence) and the Canadian Vital Statistics – Death database (breast cancer mortality). Age-standardized incidence rates (ASIRs) and age-standardized mortality rates (ASMRs) per 100,000 females per year and their rate ratios were calculated, as well as age group-specific and age-standardized stage-specific incidence rates, and examined across provinces and territories, community sizes, and peer groups (i.e., clusters of health regions with similar socioeconomic and demographic characteristics).

2. Socioeconomic characteristics of Indigenous adults reconvicted after release from provincial custody, 2016/2017
Articles and reports: 85-002-X202600100008
Description: This Juristat article explores the relationship between socioeconomic characteristics and reconvictions among Indigenous adults released from full-time provincial custody in 2016/2017, in the provinces of Nova Scotia, Ontario, Saskatchewan, Alberta, and British Columbia. The study examines pre-release socioeconomic characteristics, including education, employment, income, family composition, emergency healthcare, geographic location, and neighbourhood characteristics, to identify possible links between these factors and the likelihood of reconviction for a crime.

3. The contribution of foreign-born mothers to Canadian births from 1997 to 2024
Articles and reports: 91F0015M2025004
Description: This article provides a detailed analysis of the contribution of foreign-born mothers to Canadian births from 1997 to 2024. Trends in the number of and proportion of births to foreign-born mothers are examined, including analysis by the mother's country of origin, age group and mean age at childbearing. International and provincial comparisons are also explored.

4. Reconvictions among adults sentenced to custody or community supervision across five provincial correctional programs, 2015/2016 to 2018/2019
Articles and reports: 85-002-X202400100002
Description: This Juristat article presents data and information on reconvictions among adults released from full-time custody, starting an intermittent custodial sentence, or starting a community supervision sentence across five provincial correctional programs in 2015/2016. Reconvictions were examined for up to four years, from 2015/2016 to 2018/2019. Findings are disaggregated by age, gender, criminal history and population group, including Indigenous, Black and other racialized groups. This study is based on linked data from the Canadian Correctional Services Survey, Integrated Criminal Court Survey and Canadian Vital Statistics - Death database.

5. Are “immortals” an issue for survival estimates derived from Canadian Cancer Registry data?
Articles and reports: 82-003-X202301200002
Description: The validity of survival estimates from cancer registry data depends, in part, on the identification of the deaths of deceased cancer patients. People whose deaths are missed seemingly live on forever and are informally referred to as “immortals”, and their presence in registry data can result in inflated survival estimates. This study assesses the issue of immortals in the Canadian Cancer Registry (CCR) using a recently proposed method that compares the survival of long-term survivors of cancers for which “statistical” cure has been reported with that of similar people from the general population.

6. Lifetime probability of developing cancer and dying from cancer in Canada, 1997 to 2020
Articles and reports: 82-003-X202300900002
Description: According to recent Canadian estimates, over two in five Canadians will likely develop cancer in their lifetime, and one in four is expected to die of it. The lifetime probabilities of developing cancer and dying from cancer are useful summary statistics that describe the impact of cancer within a population. However, there is little information on how lifetime probabilities of developing cancer and dying from cancer have changed over time. This study aims to present detailed lifetime probabilities of developing cancer and dying from cancer by sex and cancer type, and to describe changes in these lifetime probabilities over time among the Canadian population.

7. Linkage of the nationally representative Canadian Community Health Survey - Nutrition 2004 to routinely collected mortality records
Articles and reports: 82-003-X202200900002
Description:
National health surveys and vital statistics registries are the cornerstones of surveillance, monitoring and policy development in most developed countries. This cohort profile describes the linkage of the Canadian Community Health Survey - Nutrition (2004) to the Canadian Vital Statistics - Death Database (2011). Further, the authors demonstrate how these data can be used in terms of potential analysis strategies, and discuss their strengths and limitations-considerations that could apply to any national nutrition survey worldwide.

8. Risk of non-medical drug overdose following prescription of opioids post-injury: A retrospective cohort study
Articles and reports: 82-003-X202200700001
Description: There has been increasing scrutiny of opioid prescribing following injury given concerns that prescribed opioids may contribute to addiction and/or overdose. This study aimed to better understand the relationship between injury, opioids prescribed pre- and post-injury, and non-medical drug poisoning. Focusing on working age (15-65 years old) residents of the Fraser Health region, this study used a linked administrative dataset to better understand the relationships between injury, whether the injury was work-related or sustained outside of the workplace, pain management medication in the form of opioid and opioid agonist therapy prescriptions before and after injury, and potential non-medical drug poisoning.
