This statistic displays the age-standardized suicide rate in Canada from 1950 to 2009, by gender. In 1950, the suicide rate in the country reached 13.8 per 100,000 population for males but only 4 per 100,000 among females. Many people who have committed suicide have some form of depression, a serious mood disorder that can impact one's occupation, social life, education, and other parts of their lives.
