1.
Includes casual acquaintances, close friends, current and former boyfriends/girlfriends, and other non-spousal intimate relationships, neighbours, business relationships (legal), and authority figures.
2.
Includes current and former spouses (legal, common-law, same-sex, and opposite sex), parents and children (including biological, adopted, step, and foster relationships), siblings, and other extended family members.
3.
Includes, for example, sex workers, drug dealers and their clients, loan sharks, or gang members. Although prostitution is not illegal in Canada, certain acts related to sex work are prohibited, such as purchasing sexual services or communicating for the purpose of purchasing sexual services. It should be noted that some gang-related homicides may have been scored as "acquaintance". When more than one relationship applies (e.g. criminal relationship and close friend), police are asked to report the primary relationship.
Note:
Collection of data on accused-victim relationship began in 1961, with modifications made to relationship categories in 1991, 1997, and 2005. Analysis of accused-victim relationship is based on solved homicides (i.e. homicides for which an accused person has been identified by police).
