Report: 99,000 Canadians hurt by family OTTAWA, May 22 (UPI) -- Some 99,000 Canadians were victims of family violence in 2010, police data indicated in a report by Statistics Canada Tuesday. The profile, which was not comparative to earlier years, said nearly half -- or 48,700 victims -- of violence committed within families was by a spouse. "An additional 17 percent were committed by a parent, 14 percent by an extended family member, 11 percent by a sibling and 9 percent by a child, usually a grown child," Statscan said. During 2010, women aged 15 and older accounted for 81 percent of reports to police about family violence. In 2010, there were 65 homicides committed by a spouse, a rate that has been falling in the past 20 years, the agency said. By region, Ontario reported the lowest level of police-reported family violence in 2010, followed by Prince Edward Island, the report said. The three territories, Saskatchewan and Manitoba reported the highest rates.
