Homicide rates were highest in the western CMAs of Abbotsford–Mission (4.7), Winnipeg (4.1), Regina (3.8), Edmonton (3.4), Kelowna (3.4), Calgary (2.9) and Vancouver (2.4).

With 103 homicides in 2008, Toronto had the most homicides of any CMA. However, taking population into account, Toronto's rate of 1.9 homicides per 100,000 was slightly higher than the national average of 1.8.

Edit: and yeah, I saw the OP. The quote and link is from the source stats-can article (the Herald "article" is pulled almost verbatim from the SC report)
