Abstract:

The Homicide Survey has been the primary mechanism for the collection of
national statistics on homicide in Canada since 1961. Information on the
number and rates of homicide, types and circumstances of homicide
offences as well as the characteristics of victims and accused involved
is provided by all police forces in whose jurisdiction a homicide
occurs. Information related to homicide is available by respondent, by
census metropolitan area, by province/territory and for Canada as a
whole. This information is used to examine trends in homicides as well
as characteristics of homicide incidents, such as age and gender of
accused and victims, accused-victim relationships, and types of weapons.
