List of killings by law enforcement officers in Canada

This is a list of people killed by non-military law enforcement officers in Canada, both on duty and off, and regardless of reason or method. Inclusion in the lists implies neither wrongdoing nor justification on the part of the person killed or the officer involved; the listing merely documents the occurrence of a death.

This list is incomplete. There are no official statistics on fatal shootings by law enforcement officers in Canada, though the range had previously been estimated to be between 15 and 25 per year,[1][2] before the CBC's 2018 "Deadly Force" investigative report that documented 461 fatal police encounters in Canada between 2000-2017 (an average of close to 26 people a year) - "the first country-wide database of every person who died or was killed during a police intervention."[3] Statistics Canada only tracks fatal police shootings if an officer is criminally charged.[4]
