Police-reported sexual assaults in Canada, 2009 to 2014 : a statistical profile / by Cristine Rotenberg.: CS85-002/37-12E-PDF
"This Juristat article examines characteristics of sexual assaults in comparison with physical assaults, where applicable, in order to provide an analytical reference point. Both sexual and physical assault are violent offences, and both have three levels of severity as per the Criminal Code of Canada, with similar sentencing penalties (see Text box 2). While the nature of sexual and physical assault is unquestionably different in terms of motive of the accused and experience of the victim, physical assault is the best suited comparable offence type for the purposes of this analysis"--Page 4.
