Violent crime by type, provinces and territories Police-reported incidents per 100,000 population for selected violent Criminal Code violations (Uniform Crime Reporting Survey). Sexual assault is level 1, the most common category; assault is shown at levels 1 and 2. Small populations make territory rates volatile: a few incidents move the rate a lot, and territory rates are several times provincial ones.
