This presentation is an opportunity to learn about the various data sets, available through Statistics Canada’s website as well as through the Research Data Centre network, that describe the nature and characteristics of crime and victimization in Canada. Understanding how to exploit the research potential of the data sets produced by the Canadian Centre for Justice and Community Safety can contribute in a significant manner in the development of crime prevention programs, and are instrumental in developing evidence-based policy. The presentation will discuss how to exploit police and courts administrative records as well as new surveys related to gender based violence.

The data, by region, contains:

• the number of violations under the Youth Criminal Justice Act
• child pornography
• sexual violations against children
• luring a child via a computer
• making sexually explicit material available to children

The survey was designed to measure the incidence of crime in our society and its characteristics.

The Canadian Centre for Justice Statistics, in co-operation with the policing community, collects police-reported crime statistics through the UCR survey.

Black people are overrepresented in Canada's criminal justice system as both victims and people accused or convicted of crime. This fact sheet presents a statistical overview of the key areas of overrepresentation of Black people at different stages of the criminal justice system. National disaggregated data on the racialized identity of those who come in contact with the criminal justice system remain fairly limited and underreported. However, some information is available and presented in the current fact sheet. The data presented are drawn from Statistics Canada’s Canadian Centre for Justice and Community Safety Statistics (CCJCSS), the Department of Justice Canada’s Research and Statistics Division (RSD), the Correctional Service of Canada (CSC), and the Office of the Correctional Investigator (OCI)

This report presents findings on the representation and outcomes of Indigenous people as accused in Canadian criminal courts. This is the first time that national statistics on Indigenous accused in criminal courts are reported in Canada. This study addresses four key objectives: Identify whether the criminal court process itself contributes to the overrepresentation of Indigenous people in the criminal justice system (CJS); Identify disproportionality in court outcomes of Indigenous accused, compared to White accused, at key stages/decision points of the criminal court process; Identify whether other sociodemographic variables (e.g., sex and age group) affect the level of disproportionate outcomes experienced by Indigenous people at key stages/decision points of the criminal court process; and, Identify areas that warrant further exploration and data development. This study was a collaborative effort between the Research and Statistics Division at the Department of Justice Canada and the Canadian Centre for Justice and Community Safety Statistics at Statistics Canada. The data used in this study were obtained through a data linkage whereby records from Statistics Canada’s 2016 Census of Population long-form (Census) and the Integrated Criminal Court Survey (ICCS) were linked together to obtain the Indigenous identity of accused. The linked data were used to generate two types of metrics: 1) proportions of Indigenous and White accused in criminal courts; and 2) the Relative Rate Index (RRI).

This is a custom tabulation from Statistics Canada. This product is based on data from the adult component of the Integrated Criminal Court Survey (ICCS). The ICCS is administered by the Canadian Centre for Justice and Community Safety Statistics (Statistics Canada) in collaboration with provincial and territorial government departments responsible for criminal courts in Canada. The survey collects statistical information on adult and youth court cases involving Criminal Code and other federal statute offences. Data contained in this table represent the adult criminal court portion of the survey, namely individuals who were 18 years of age or older at the time of the offence. Data are based on a fiscal year (April 1 through March 31). There are many factors that influence variations between jurisdictions. These may include Crown and police charging practices, offence distributions, and various forms of diversion programs. Therefore, comparisons between jurisdictions should be interpreted with caution. Integrated Criminal Court Survey (ICCS) data for Quebec were not available for 2021/2022.

Violence: These figures include all violent crime offences as defined by the Centre for Canadian Justice Statistics Universal Crime Reporting (UCR) rules. Domestic violence is excluded. Break and Enter: Residential B&E includes both House and ‘Other’ structure break and enters due to the predominantly residential nature of this type of break in (e.g. detached garages, sheds). B&Es incidents include attempts.
