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):

Allison Parliament dies suddenly as fans pay heartbreaking tributes to Duck Duck Jeep founder
June 24, 2024
The founder of the popular craze Duck Duck Jeep has suddenly died. Allison Parliament died on June 22, according to her organization. The Duck Duck Jeep craze started in 2020 when Parliament was seen placing a rubber duck on a stranger's car. Parliament said she had done this following a bad encounter with someone while in a small town in Canada. This happened while Parliament was moving back home to Ontario, Canada, in 2020 from Alabama to be closer to her family. Her actions were then adopted by other Jeep drivers to share kindness with others. Parliament's cause of death has not been shared.
