Police-Reported Racialized and Indigenous Identity Statistics via the Uniform Crime Reporting Survey: Report and Draft Recommendations

September 1, 2022

Today, Statistics Canada released a report and draft recommendations about the collection of data on Indigenous and racialized identity through the Uniform Crime Reporting Survey.

This report builds on the increasing demand for better data on people's diverse experiences in the justice system and seeks to shed light on the different treatment and overrepresentation of Indigenous and racialized people in the Canadian criminal justice system.

The six draft recommendations included in this report were developed alongside community organizations, Indigenous groups and police services through a comprehensive engagement process that began in 2021. Statistics Canada looks forward to continuing to work with stakeholders to advance police-reported data on Indigenous and racialized groups.

"Disaggregated data are a crucial part of decision making. Today's recommendations are another step toward improving the collection and quality of data on Indigenous and racialized groups in official police-reported crime statistics," said Anil Arora, Chief Statistician of Canada. "We thank our partners, including the Canadian Association of Chiefs of Police, for helping to meet the information needs of the justice community."

This project is part of Statistics Canada's Disaggregated Data Action Plan, which will lead to detailed statistical information that highlights the experiences of specific population groups, such as women, Indigenous peoples, racialized populations and people living with disabilities.

Website modernization initiative: Text-to-speech feature

Opened: August 2022
Closed: January 2023
Results posted: March 2023

Consultative engagement objectives

Statistics Canada is piloting two text-to-speech (TTS) features on selected pages of its website. TTS is an assistive technology on the rise that provides users with another way to consume the content published online by making it audible.

We collected feedback to help gain an understanding of needs and expectations when using text to speech technology, the tools’ functionalities, and areas in need of improvements.

Consultation methodology

This consultative engagement initiative is now closed.

Statistics Canada conducted virtual group discussions in both official languages with organisations (government and non-government), academics and members of the general public of various age groups. Participants were asked to respond to a series of questions and provide feedback on the TTS features.

How participants got involved

Feedback was sought from visitors to the Statistics Canada website and data users including persons with visual impairments, learning disabilities, cognitive impairments and other accessibility requirements as well as accessibility organizations, multilingual language users, readers looking for convenience, lower literacy readers, and academics.

Also included were Statistics Canada employees, including management, accessibility, and diversity communities.

Results

The consultative engagement revealed that most participants recognised that this tool is and could be useful to Canadians except for those impacted by blindness or living with sight loss. It also provided valuable recommendations on how to improve the TTS feature to be more relevant and user-friendly.

Statistics Canada thanks participants for their involvement in this consultative engagement initiative. Their insights will guide the next phase of this pilot project and we will continue to consult with Canadians if further enhancements are being implemented.
