- Articles and reports: 85-002-X202500100003Description: Online child sexual exploitation captures a wide range of criminal offences involving victims aged 17 years and younger, including luring, invitation to sexual touching, and non-consensual distribution of intimate images, as well as online child pornography (including child pornography generated using artificial intelligence). Using a data file linking police-reported data from the Uniform Crime Reporting Survey to court data from the Integrated Criminal Court Survey, this Juristat article explores how online child sexual exploitation incidents progress through the criminal justice system, from police to courts. More specifically, the article examines the criminal justice outcomes (i.e., charges laid, decisions made in relation to these charges and, where possible, sentencing outcomes) of online child sexual exploitation incidents reported by police between 2014 and 2021 that resulted in a completed court case between fiscal years 2013/2014 and 2022/2023.Release date: 2025-03-11

- Articles and reports: 85-005-X202500100001Description: This report explores the police-reported Crime Severity Index (CSI) as a key indicator of crime in Canada. Community feedback and engagement reinforced the importance of presenting the CSI as a nuanced tool that requires careful interpretation. Specifically, the feedback highlighted the risk of oversimplifying crime data and the potential for misleading comparisons between different communities with distinct social, economic, and demographic contexts. Three new products were developed to highlight the origins of the CSI and the importance of interpreting it in conjunction with other data sources to better understand crime in an area. They reflect a commitment to addressing stakeholder needs, improving data accessibility and coherence, and providing information that empowers data users to interpret the CSI with confidence.Release date: 2025-02-20

Data sources examined include the Incident-based Uniform Crime Reporting Survey, the Homicide Survey, the Integrated Criminal Courts Survey, the Adult Corrections Survey, the Youth Custody and Community Services Survey, the Youth Alternative Measures Survey, the Transition Home Survey, the Victim Services Survey and the General Social Survey on Victimization.
