Note: The category "Indigenous" refers to police services that served a population where more than 50% of the population they serve identified as Aboriginal in the 2016 Census, or lived on reserve. The category "Non-Indigenous" refers to those police services where the majority of the population did not identify as Aboriginal in the 2016 Census or did not live on reserve. See the section "Data sources and concepts" for an explanation of the method used to identify police services serving majority Indigenous populations. Crime rates are based upon Criminal Code incidents, excluding traffic offences. See Table 2 for a list of offences included in the total violent crime, total property crime and total other Criminal Code offences categories. Counts are based upon the most serious violation in the incident. One incident may involve multiple violations. Rates are calculated on the basis of 100,000 population. Populations are based upon July 1st estimates from Statistics Canada, Demography Division.
