1 Rates are calculated on the basis
of 100,000 population. The population estimates come from the Annual
Demographic Statistics, 2002 report, produced by Statistics Canada,
Demography Division. Populations as of July 1st: final intercensal estimates
for 1992, updated postcensal estimates for 2001 and preliminary postcensal
estimates for 2002.
2 Note that a CMA typically comprises more than one police force.
Also, note that the Oshawa CMA is excluded from this table due to the incongruity between
the police agency jurisdictional boundaries and the CMA boundaries.
3 Populations for all CMAs have been adjusted to follow policing
boundaries.
4 Ottawa represents the Ontario portion of the Ottawa-Gatineau CMA.
5 Gatineau was formerly known as Hull and refers to the Quebec portion
of the Ottawa-Gatineau CMA.
