2024 Newfoundland and Labrador Drowning Report
Drowning fatalities have increased slightly over the past five
years according to the Society's most recent Newfoundland and
Labrador Drowning Report, but the causes and demographics remain
the same. Boating is the most common activity when drowning occurs,
and not wearing a lifejacket is the largest contributing factor.
Males continue to account for 86% of drowning deaths in the
province. Read the full report.
