Index published every year by Statistics Canada from police-reported incidents: each offence is weighted by its seriousness (the average sentence courts hand down for that type of offence), and the total is related to the population. 2006 = 100. Unlike the crime rate, which counts every offence the same way, the index gives more weight to serious crimes. It reflects offences reported to and recorded by the police, not actual crime.· Recorded offences, not actual crime
