The Homicide Survey collects police-reported data on the characteristics of all homicide
incidents, victims and accused persons in Canada. The Homicide Survey began collecting
information on all murders in 1961 and was expanded in 1974 to include all incidents of
manslaughter and infanticide. Although details on these incidents are not available prior to
1974, counts are available from the Uniform Crime Reporting (UCR) Survey and are
included in the historical aggregate totals.

Announced in 2017, Statistics Canada launched a new survey as part of the Gender-Based
Violence Strategy that will be conducted every five years. Data collection for the survey,
called the Survey of Safety in Public and Private Spaces (SSPPS) (also known as the GenderBased Violence (GBV) Survey), started the first week of April and will continue until the end
of the year. The survey will ask questions about:
(a)
Intimate partner violence: patterns of coercive abuse – additional data needed
(e.g., frequency and severity of abusive behaviour)
(b)
Attitudes and norms that are conducive to violence
(c)
Inappropriate sexual behaviours in public places
(d)
Cyberviolence as a gendered behaviour (e.g., sexual nature)
Vulnerable populations (e.g., gender non-conforming and trans* individuals, women living
with disabilities, Indigenous women, etc.)
