Regional Police pertaining to incidents reported between January 1st and December 31st, 2002. 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 All statistics in this report are compiled from Incident-based reporting. These statistics should not be compared with those provided by

  • Policing the Pandemic Enforcement Report April 14 2020 - May 1 2020
    Policing the Pandemic Enforcement Report April 14 2020 - May 1 2020 Alex Luscombe1 and Alexander McClelland2 www.policingthepandemic.ca National Level Trends Based on available data, we count a total of 4,575 people that have been ticketed/charged on separate occasions for alleged COVID-19 related violations across Canada, resulting in over $5.8 million in fines to date. Although a very small number, we cannot say these are unique individuals as some people have already been fined/charged multiple times since police responses to COVID-19 began. The vast majority of these enforcement actions have been in Quebec´ (3048), followed by Ontario (930), Nova Scotia (516), and Alberta (44). Based on available data, we continue to observe far less enforcement actions in other Canadian provinces (less than 15 per province) (Figure 1). At the city level, most of these enforcement actions have been concentrated in Montreal´ (1848), Toronto (594), and Halifax (216). In the previous Enforcement Report released April 13, we indicated a concern that other provinces outside of Quebec,´ Ontario, and Nova Scotia could soon scale-up enforcement. Although that concern has not been realized, we note that in Saskatchewan, Alberta, and Manitoba, there has been a small increase in enforcement. In Saskatchewan, tickets for alleged COVID-related violations are also the highest we have seen yet, starting at $2000 (compared to the next highest, Quebec,´ at $1,546). In terms of alleged violations, the majority of enforcement actions to date have been for failure to physical distance/comply with minimal gathering rules (4398). More and more details about these incidents are beginning to come to light.
