The numbers below are compiled by the government of Canada and represent a snapshot of how is spreading across the country.
The data is updated every evening. Because of reporting times and methodolgy it may not match exactly with data from other sources and, since all counts have their limitations, it is likely that many pepople with COVID-19 are not reflected in the numbers. Testing may also be uneven between jurisdictions and vary across times within a jurisdiction. If one jurisdiction has tested more people, that place is likely to have a more accurate picture of spread.
The Star has several COVID-19 data dashboards that look at the numbers from a variety of angles. In each case, we’ve picked what we believe to be the most accurate and updated data source.
