No data collected yet
No records have been requested or received. This is the dataset with the strongest public interest and the longest lead time; it is listed so the gap is visible rather than quietly absent.
The methodology below is fixed and published in advance, so that when collection does run the result cannot be shaped after the fact by choosing a favourable definition. Until then this page shows no figures — an estimate here would be indistinguishable from an observation, which is the failure this whole section exists to avoid.
Methodology, sources and limits
- What a row is
- Aggregate counts by year, province, age band and exposure type, obtained from poison centres and from the Canada Vigilance extract.
- Update cadence
- The upstream source changes annual. This page is as fresh as its last build, shown above — not as fresh as the source.
Known limitations
- Adverse reaction reports are suspicions, not proof of causation, and are substantially under-reported. Any chart built from them carries that sentence beside it.
- Poison centre aggregates require access-to-information requests that have not been filed.
Licence and reuse
Our compilation — the selection, the joins, the derived columns and the charts — is published under CC BY 4.0. Reuse it, including commercially, with attribution. The underlying government records carry their own terms, named beside each source above; nothing here overrides them.
