A note from our lead Canada researcher:
As high as it is—higher even than the toll in Italy, although Canada has a much smaller population—the weekly toll that we have been recording in these compilations is much lower than it ought to be, due to the terseness of obituaries from some of Canada’s highly multicultural populations. The death notices from those communities are less detailed than those from the general population.
There is a similar void of information in our northern regions. It is extremely difficult to find death notices of any kind for those communities, whose rate of “sudden deaths” may well be hidden. What all this means, in short, is that the true rate of “sudden deaths” in Canada is probably much higher–perhaps five times higher–than the quite high rate that we’ve recorded here.
A note on suicides:
Suicides by young people are up 22% during the pandemic in Canada and 17 other countries (and it’s why we’re including suicides in our compilations):

Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu - Hello, my name is Louise Giroux. I am the grandmother of Jade Giroux-Poisson as well as the mother of Véronique Giroux-Quesnel. We are a small, close-knit family. Her little sister Léa, her grandfather Peter, her godfather François, her aunt Virginie, her cousins Charlie and Ophélie and myself are experiencing the greatest drama of our lives. My 13-year-old granddaughter, Jade, decided to end her life on November 16. The pain is so intense that we are all off work. My daughter has been off work for over a year because of a serious medical condition, and is now being treated at the Jewish Hospital in Montreal for refractory pericarditis. She seems to be responding well to ongoing treatments. The battle is not won but we are filled with hope. We are asking for your generosity to help Véronique give Jade a final farewell as well as offer financial support to Véronique so that she can get through this ordeal.

Throughout her life, she has made an impact on people’s lives, not only in Saint John but in New Brunswick and across Canada.
