Open the live profile
The live dashboard retrieves the newest usable observations from the connected public series and shows the year beside every result.
What this profile covers
This page selects the national source entity coded CAN. It does not combine province- or territory-level observations and should not be generalized to every community or individual in Canada.
Four score dimensions + carbon context
| Dimension | Indicator | Primary source family |
|---|---|---|
| Psychological wellbeing | Suicide mortality rate | WHO via World Bank |
| Physical safety | Intentional homicide rate | UNODC via World Bank |
| Freedom of information | Freedom-of-expression index | V-Dem via Our World in Data |
| Protection of children | Children in employment | ILO via World Bank |
| Environmental pressure | Consumption-based CO₂ per person | Raw tonnes per person · separate from score |
Carbon context: The dashboard reports consumption-based CO₂ per person separately. It has 0% weight in the social score.
How to read the evidence
The five source series can refer to different years. Humanity Alert keeps those dates visible and treats missing or stale observations as limitations, never as zero. The normalized pressure signal is a navigation aid rather than an official ranking.
A national indicator describes a reported population-level pattern. It does not measure the dignity, character or worth of a people.
Country-level limitation
National figures can obscure variation between provinces, territories, urban and remote areas, and population groups. Comparisons also depend on the completeness and timing of each source series.
