It would seem odd that there is a higher rate of thieves breaking into homes in Canada, but US would have 15 times the rate of home invasions (which doesn't seem well defined) if they are referring to the same thing.
Anecdotally, I don't seem to hear of more homes being robbed here vs Canadian friends and family.
