Police-reported crime statistics in Canada, 2011 / by Shannon Brennan. : CS85-002/32-11E-PDF
"Measuring the prevalence and nature of crime in Canada has been recognized as an important issue, as the amount of crime in a country can be seen as a reflection of the overall safety and well-being of the population. There are two ways of measuring crime in Canada: using self-reported data from victimization surveys, and using police-reported data. Since 1962, Statistics Canada has conducted the Uniform Crime Reporting (UCR) Survey, which collects data on all criminal incidents reported to, and substantiated by, Canadian police services. This Juristat article presents findings from the 2011 UCR Survey. It explores trends in the volume and severity of both violent and non-violent offences at the national, provincial/territorial and census metropolitan area levels. Further, this report examines changes in the number and rate of individual offences reported by police, including homicide, robbery, sexual offences, break-ins and motor vehicle theft. Finally, information pertaining to trends in the volume and severity of youth crime are presented"--Page 6.
