Race-based hate incidents in Canada Dashboard
A five-year (2018 - 2022) study on Canadian race-based hate incidents collected through English media-reported incidents
This first-of-its-kind five-year study by the Canadian Cultural Mosaic Foundation provides groundbreaking data amalgamating characteristics of race-based hate incidents across Canada that were reported by mainstream English-language media sources from 2018-2022. This unprecedented data set highlights the varied nature and complexity of race-based hate incidents perpetrated against racialized and Indigenous people in Canada as reported by media. The harm caused by such incidents is palpable and clearly pervasive. As such, we are sharing our data with researchers, governments and institutions to build towards a more equitable future for all Canadians. We hope this data will inspire more Canadians to advocate change locally in their respective communities. Visit the research website for more information.
