Early 'excess death' data for Canada suggests decrease in deaths in early days of pandemic


(CBC News)The death count reported by Statistics Canada raises more questions than answers, according to one expert. They have different legislations, different mandates, different capacity issues, as well as different data collection methods. So we are up against 13 different data collection processes,'' Phillips said. Statistics Canada promises "a clearer picture will emerge" soon, as more data becomes available. The agency will release a similar analysis next month, which will capture all deaths reported by provinces and territories in the month of April.
