Geographical patterns of homicide are examined at the national and provincial/territorial levels, as well as for major metropolitan areas. Other key themes include gang-related homicides, firearm-related homicides, youth homicides and intimate partner homicides. The data are intended to respond to the needs of those who work in the criminal justice system as well as to inform researchers, policy analysts, academics, the media and the public on the nature and extent of homicide in Canada.

  • 6. Police-reported dating violence in Canada, 2008 Archived
    Articles and reports: 85-002-X201000211242
    Geography: Canada
    Description:

    In 2008, among incidents perpetrated by intimate partners, one quarter of all violent incidents reported to police and one third of homicides involved individuals in dating relationships. Illustrating the importance of exploring violence in all types of intimate relationships, this report examines the prevalence and characteristics of incidents of police-reported dating violence in Canada. For comparison purposes, the population of interest includes individuals aged 15 and older, consistent with previous analyses of police-reported spousal violence in Canada. Results suggest that the characteristics of police-reported dating violence have largely mirrored those of spousal violence, with some notable exceptions. Incidents of dating violence in same-sex relationships and those involving younger victims between the ages of 12 and 14 are also explored in this report.

  • 7. Merging area-level census data with survey and administrative data Archived
    Articles and reports: 11-522-X200600110402
    Description:

    This paper explains how to append census area-level summary data to survey or administrative data. It uses examples from survey datasets present in Statistics Canada Research Data Centres, but the methods also apply to external datasets, including administrative datasets. Four examples illustrate common situations faced by researchers: (1) when the survey (or administrative) and census data both contain the same level of geographic identifiers, coded to the same year standard ("vintage") of census geography (for example, if both have 2001 DA); (2) when the two files contain geographic identifiers of the same vintage, but at different levels of census geography (for example, 1996 EA in the survey, but 1996 CT in the census data); (3) when the two files contain data coded to different vintages of census geography (such as 1996 EA for the survey, but 2001 DA for the census); (4) when the survey data are lacking in geographic identifiers, and those identifiers must first be generated from postal codes present on the file. The examples are shown using SAS syntax, but the principles apply to other programming languages or statistical packages.
