According to the National Statistics Office, the amount and severity of crime reported by the police in Canada decreased by four percent last year after three annual increases.
Canadian statistics say that non -violent crime had a significant impact on the reduction in the general severity index of the crime in 2024.
Violent crime severity index-but from the result of the crimes such as property and drug offenses-decreased by six percent last year, compared with nine percent until 2021 in 2023.
According to the Agency, the severity index of the violent crime decreased by 1 % in 2024 and had a relatively smaller impact on the overall picture.
This index had risen from three consecutive years and had grown by 15 % over that period.
The severity index of the crime was developed to determine the restrictions on crime reported by the police, resulting from a large number of less serious crimes.
