Suicide Mortality Gap between Francophones and Anglophones of Quebec, Canada
|
| Abstract |
The authors assess the suicide mortality gap between Francophones and Anglophones of Quebec according to age, sex, method, region and socioeconomic deprivation. They found that suicide rates for Francophones were two to three times higher than rates for Anglophones, and differences were greatest for adults aged 25–64 years. Francophone males had more than two times the rate of suicide by hanging or firearms than Anglophone males. Francophone females had twice the rate of hanging, poisoning or firearm suicide as Anglophone females, although precision was low. Francophone-Anglophone suicide mortality gaps were higher in urban areas despite lower suicide rates, and varied little across levels of social and material deprivation.
