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):

Artist Caleb Beyers dies at 42
May 25, 2024
Pender Island [B.C.] artist Caleb Beyers died unexpectedly last month at the age of 42, the result of a fatal heart attack. While the loss cut short a life full of substance and promise, his spirit — and artistic contributions — will reverberate through the region for years to come. A Harvard graduate, Beyers was an editor at the famous on-campus magazine, the Harvard Lampoon. After graduating in 2003 with a degree in psychology, Beyers returned to Vancouver Island. According to a GoFundMe entry: “He wouldn’t rest until he could feel the synchrony between the project, the spirit, the people involved and the moment... Everything was his medium. He made art out of his garden, out of leaves and foliage, out of scrap wood, with video, a pencil, a camera, a computer, anything. He was always paying attention to the world. He noticed things uniquely.”

it is interesting to see how many "No cause of death reported" notations there are in Canada. A few more died of cancer in this report and fewer still died of heart attacks in Canada. In the USA, they seem to now be stating cancer deaths instead of "No cause" deaths, as well as heart attacks. Mexico has the record for heart attacks, in the reports. I haven't read this week's report yet. I am heading to that next. Just find it interesting that little is know about how people die in Canada.
