Police-reported crime statistics in Canada, 2010 / by Shannon Brennan and Mia Dauvergne. : CS85-002/31-8E-PDF

"One way of measuring crime in Canada is through the use of police-reported data. Every year, Statistics Canada conducts the Uniform Crime Reporting (UCR) Survey, which has collected data on all criminal incidents known to, and substantiated by, Canadian police services since 1962. These data conform to a nationally approved set of common crime categories and definitions that have been developed in co-operation with the Canadian Association of Chiefs of Police. This article presents findings from the 2010 UCR Survey. It examines overall trends in the volume and severity of crime for both violent and non-violent offences at the national, provincial/territorial, and census metropolitan area levels. In addition, this article explores changes in the number and rate of individual offences reported by police, for certain violent (e.g. homicide and robbery) and non-violent crimes (e.g., break and enter and motor vehicle theft). Finally, information pertaining to trends in the volume and severity of youth crime are presented"--Page 2.
