A new survey has found residents in the Greater Toronto Area (GTA) are worried about rising crime rates, despite various police services in the region reporting declines. The survey by Liaison Strategies found 72 per cent of Torontonians believed homicide in the city had increased over the past year. But as of Dec. 30, Toronto has had 42 reported homicides in 2025 the lowest rate since 1986 according to data provided by Toronto Police Service (TPS).
