ABOUT THIS REPORT

IN THIS REPORT

This report contains a summary of crime statistics for York Regional Police pertaining to incidents reported between January 1st and December 31st, 2003. A one year and five year comparison is made. Miscellaneous statistics are also included.

HOW ARE CRIMES COUNTED?

The data in this report is based on accumulated to-date information. Therefore, the number of violations recorded may change due to late reporting, reclassification, and unfounded incidents.

York Regional Police publish crime statistics based on the number of reported violations (Incident-based Uniform Crime Reporting (UCR)). Incident-based UCR classifies incidents according to the four most serious violations in the incident (generally the violations which carry the longest maximum sentences under the Criminal Code of Canada). Violent incidents (except robbery) are classified differently from other types of crime. For violent crime, a separate incident is recorded for each victim. Robbery, however is counted as if it were a non-violent crime in order to avoid inflating the number of incidents. In categorizing incidents, violent violations always take precedence over non-violent violations.

MAKING COMPARISONS

Unless otherwise noted, all statistics in this report are compiled from Incident-based reporting. These statistics should not be compared with those provided by Statistics Canada who converts the data received to an Aggregate-based UCR format which measures only the most serious offence related to an incident. In addition, Statistics Canada include the number of offences reported by the North Detachment of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police with York Regional Police’s crime statistics.

Statistics Canada data should be used for comparisons between policing jurisdictions because all data is converted to Aggregate-based reporting.

TERMINOLOGY

Actual totals include only those incidents for which an occurrence report was made and have been substantiated through police investigation.

Clearance rates are calculated by the number of violations cleared by charge or otherwise (persons processed by other means) divided by the number of violations. These violations may not necessarily have occurred during the reporting period but some time prior.

Crime rates are expressed as a rate per 100,000 population using mid-year population estimates

supplied by York Region Planning and Development Services Department and have been rounded to two decimals.

Criminal incident refers to a set of connected events which usually constitute an occurrence report. One incident can include more than one violation.

Offence is defined as a statistical fact for Aggregate-based reporting. This terminology is not used in Incident-based reporting.

Violation refers to a contravention of the Criminal Code, Federal, or Provincial Statutes.

Young Offender refers to a person aged 12 - 17 years inclusive (Young Offenders Act).

Young Person refers to a person aged 12 - 17 years inclusive (Youth Criminal Justice Act).

CHANGES IN REPORTING METHODOLOGY

In March 2000, Bill C-202 received royal assent amending the Criminal Code by making it an offence to operate a motor vehicle while being pursued by a peace officer in order to evade the peace officer and fail to stop the vehicle as soon as it is reasonable in the circumstances. To correspond with this, Statistics Canada implemented violation codes relating to these criminal code sections. These violation codes fall under the dangerous operation category. This must be considered when making five year comparisons of criminal code traffic violations.

York Regional Police Π2003 Annual Statistical Report Page 4

In December 2001, Bill C-24 received royal assent amending the Criminal Code by introducing three new offences to fight organized crime. To correspond with this, Statistics Canada implemented violation codes relating to organized crime. These violations are included in the “Other Criminal Code (Part B)” category.

In December 2001, Bill C-36 received royal assent amending the Criminal Code, the Proceeds of Crime (money laundering) Act, and a number of other Acts, in order to combat terrorism. To correspond with this, Statistics Canada implemented new violation codes relating to terrorist activity. These violations are included in the “Other Criminal Code (Part B)” category.

On January 1, 2002, a change was implemented to include motor vehicle collisions when a party left the scene of the accident, but was not apprehended, as a criminal code violation. This only includes collisions which constitute an offence contrary to the Criminal Code. This change of reporting methodology is in accordance with other police services’ practices.

A review of the way York Regional Police deploy its front-line resources began in 1999. A more comprehensive study was undertaken in 2000. The Restructuring Front-Line Service Delivery Study with recommendations was submitted to the Police Services Board and given approval in October 2001. One of the recommendations in the study was to re-align the district and beat boundaries. The purpose of changing the geographic beat locations was to distribute workload levels more efficiently between reactive, administrative, and proactive duties. The changes in beat boundaries also allow for a more effective response to emergency calls for service and enables ownership of an area by patrol units. On March 3, 2002, the changes to the district boundaries were implemented. Although this does not impact regional statistics, it must be considered when comparing district statistics from 2002 and 2003.

Beginning in 2002, all police services in Canada began sending incidents of impaired driving where a road-side suspension was issued by police (rather than laying a charge) to drivers found to have a blood-alcohol reading at or slightly above the legal limit. These violations where not counted as criminal code offences prior to 2002.

The delivery of 9-1-1 service to the residents of York Region began in 1994 with a Bell Canada operator in Ottawa answering all calls to 9-1-1 from within York Region. The calls would then be transferred to an appropriate emergency response agency within York Region. In April 2001, an application was made by Bell Canada to the Canadian Radio and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) to withdraw this service. In June 2001, Regional Council authorized Regional staff to directly provide 9-1-1 emergency in conjunction with York Regional Police. On April 2, 2002, 9-1-1 call answering was transferred to the Region of York from Bell Canada with York Regional Police as the first point of reception for 9-1-1 calls.

In June 2002, Bill C-15A, an act to amend the Criminal Code with respect to the sexual exploitation of children on the internet, received royal assent. The new amendments make it an offence to communicate with children via a computer system for the purpose of facilitating or committing certain sexual offences, such as child luring or abduction. To correspond with this, Statistics Canada implemented a violation code which is included in the “Other Criminal Code (Part A)” category.

York Regional Police Π2003 Annual Statistical Report Page 5

On April 1, 2003, the Youth Criminal Justice Act (YCJA) came into force, repealing and replacing the Young Offenders Act.

On May 16, 2003, Mr. Justice Rogin of the Superior Court of released his judgment in the matter of R. v. J.P. and held that section 4(1) of the Controlled Drug and Substances Act (simple possession), as it applied to marihuana only, was invalid. Due to this ruling, police were thereafter unable to lay charges relating to simple possession of marihuana. On October 7, 2003, the Court of Appeal ruled that “the prohibition against possession of marihuana in s. 4 is in force” from that date forward.
