Highest rate of hate crimes in Canada is in Hamilton(Ontario), report says

India Blooms News Service | @indiablooms | 26 Jul 2019, 02:56 pm

Ottawa, July 26 (IBNS): A Statistics Canada report published earlier this week, showed that Hamilton, in Ontario, recorded the highest police-reported hate crimes in Canada.

A total of 97 incidents of hate reported to the police in Hamilton last year.

Quebec City, which reported 89 cases of hate to the police in 2018, had the second-highest rate of police-reported hate crimes and Ottawa was third with 105 incidents reported last year.

The above figures take into account that a third of criminal offences don't get reported to the police.
