CANSIM 252-0075 to CANSIM 252-0081

Question:
Would the data for the years 1977-97 be available by police detachment?  It is for 1998-2016.

Answer:
I’ve inquired with subject matter and they have provided me with the B2020 table for the UCR1 data (from 1977 to 1997). Due to some modifications of the survey, there is a break in the comparability of data between the years ’97 and ’98, so there is mandatory reading material as well to explain the adjustments. I will add this to the WDS and the EFT (FTP/FileZilla!) shortly and will let you know where it can be found!
