Official annual figures
Canada
Several bodies count this country — a community monitor, the police, EU-wide reporting. They measure different things on different definitions; the bars share a scale but are not rival estimates of one number.
Antisemitic attitudes
How widespread antisemitic beliefs are in the wider population, from ADL's Global 100 opinion survey. This is not a count of incidents and cannot be compared with one — a country can hold few recorded incidents and widespread prejudice, or the reverse.
