Deaths increased a lot in Canada in 2020—the number of deaths exceeded 300,000 for the first time, and the death rate per 100,000 exceeded 800, also for the first time. This was followed by another smaller increase in mortality in 2021. This pattern was similar to the US, although the increase in deaths in Canada was not as large.
Although this was just a bare overview of deaths in Canada, there were some strikingly similar patterns of excess deaths in both Canada and the US, including the huge death spike in Spring 2020, following the World Health Organization’s declaration of a global pandemic.
There was also the fact the deaths increased most, percentage-wise, among younger and middle-aged adults—eerily similar to the same pattern of deaths seen in the US. Do you believe in coincidences? Because, at least to my amateur eye, this seems like a very, very peculiar one.
I don’t know if the characteristics of the excess deaths in Canada are otherwise similar to the US excess deaths, but I suspect they may be—because they had the same cause, whatever it was. There is a summary of the research I’ve done on the characteristics of deaths during the US death peaks here

One noticeable difference between Canada and US deaths was that the US did not have the startling 30%-31% increase in deaths among children age 5-14 that Canada had. It would be a lot more startling if it involved the number of deaths the US has each year, but it still looks worthy of further investigation.
