Vancouver's data spans from April 2 to June 1, 2026, with 1,599 incidents recorded.

Calgary's November 2024 data is dominated by theft and property crimes, while Vancouver's April–June 2026 window shows a higher share of 'Other' incidents. Until same-period data is available, these figures should be read as separate published-window summaries rather than a head-to-head comparison.
