In 2023, the suicide mortality rate in Canada was at 6.2 deaths per 100,000 women. Forecasts for 2024 to 2028 show a steady decline, with rates expected to decrease from 6.1 in 2024 to 6.0 in 2028. Year-on-year variations from 2024 indicate a stable trend until 2027, when a slight reduction is projected for 2028. The projected compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over these five years suggests a gradual downward trend in suicide mortality among Canadian women.
Future trends to watch for include:
- The impact of mental health initiatives and societal changes on the suicide mortality rate.
- Potential demographic shifts or policy changes that could influence mental health outcomes.
- Technological advancements in mental health support and intervention strategies.
