326,215 deaths from All Causes were among individuals all ages
2023 vs New Normal™ for individuals all ages in Canada
326,215 of 326,215 total deaths were from All Causes
100.00% of all deaths were from All Causes
This is up 14% compared to Old Normal rates.
285,716 of 285,716 total deaths would have been expected under Old Normal conditions.
40,499 excess deaths from All Causes in 2023.
250,752 excess deaths from All Causes (2015-2023)
To show this year’s deaths from All Causes are up 14% compared to Old Normal rates, we need to calculate the rates for both 2023 and for the Old Normal.
Remember, death rates are calculated to answer these questions:
“How many individuals all ages were there?” and
“How many of them died from All Causes?”
The following 2 charts provide this information:
Deaths – All Causes – Both Sexes – All Ages | Canada, Canada
Population – Both Sexes – All Ages – [2000-2023] | Canada, Canada
From the charts, we can see that in 2023, 326,215 of 40,097,761 individuals all ages living in Canada died from All Causes.
326,215 ÷ 40,097,761 = 0.00814 (2023 CDR)
We’ll use the table below to calculate our Old Normal rate for deaths from All Causes

The table shows there were a total of 3,525,760 deaths from All Causes among 494,810,187 individuals all ages living in Canada in the 15 years immediately prior to the New Normal™.
3,525,760 ÷ 494,810,187 = 0.00713 (Old Normal CDR)
We can use the Old Normal rate to predict this year’s deaths:
2023 pop X Old Normal CDR = expected deaths
40,097,761 X 0.00713 = 285,716 expected deaths
The difference between actual and expected deaths shows lives saved or lost:
326,215 – 285,716 = 40,499
Dividing the actual deaths by the expected deaths gives us the comparative rates:
326,215 ÷ 285,716 = 1.1401
This reveals 40,499 lives lost and is 114.01% of what we expected (an increase of 14%) in deaths from All Causes among individuals all ages living in Canada in 2023, as compared to the Old Normal.

This is the same method used by Public Health to calculate the 5-yr CDR (Cumulative Death Rate):
2,334,982 ÷ 298,187,511 = 0.00783 (5-yr CDR)
40,097,761(2023 pop) X 0.00783 = 313,989 expected deaths
The difference between actual and expected deaths:
326,215 – 313,989 = 12,226 or 12,226 lives lost
Divide actual deaths by expected deaths:
326,215 ÷ 313,989 = 1.0376 or an increase of 4%
for deaths from All Causes among individuals all ages living in Canada in 2023, as compared to the previous 5 years.
Compare our Old Normal to the 5yr CDR. Does it tell the same story your TV does?
Finally, the same method can also be used to compare our Old Normal rate to the New Normal™ rate:
New Normal™ population X Old Normal rate = expected deaths
338,285,272 X 0.00713 = 2,410,445 expected deaths
The difference between actual and expected deaths:
2661197 – 2,410,445 = 250,752 or 250,752 lives lost
Dividing the actual deaths by the expected deaths:
2,661,197 ÷ 2,410,445 = 1.1025 or an increase of 10%
in deaths from All Causes among individuals all ages living in Canada in the New Normal™, as compared to the Old Normal.
