About this data

How to read this measureUse caution when comparing mortality rates: 2024 is preliminary and may omit deaths because collection was shorter. Earlier years may be revised. Cause-of-death coding changed in 2013 and 2017. Yukon figures for 2017–2022 are uncertain. Rates use the estimated 2021 Canadian population for age standardization.

Data shown through 2024Table updated

These are the selections used for this answer. The full Statistics Canada table (13-10-0932-01) contains other measures and breakdowns.

Adapted from Statistics Canada, Deaths and mortality rate (age standardization using 2021 population), by selected grouped causes, 2026-01-13. This does not constitute an endorsement by Statistics Canada of this product.

How this answer was calculatedThe headline compares the first and last observations shown. Absolute change is the last source value minus the first; relative change is (last ÷ first − 1) × 100. Intermediate observations remain visible in the chart and exact values. This is descriptive and does not identify causes.
