This study aimed to examine victimization against women in Canada. Statistics Canada General Social Survey (GSS) 2009 data set was used in this current study for the analysis. In all, 31,510 household were surveyed and out of that, 19,500 responses representing 61.6% were obtained for the GSS 2009, a sample which was smaller than the 24000 which was used for the 2004 general social survey. In this study, the short version of the GSS 2009 which has a sample of 1512 was used for the analysis. At the end of the study, it was revealed that there is no statistically significant difference regarding the experience of victimization in both males and females in Canada (p-value = 0.418, Lambda = 0.003, Phi = 0.21, Cramer’s V = 0.21. However, the results of the study revealed a significant difference the impacts of victimization of males and females respectively. Thus women are more likely to experience depression after being victimized than men (p-value = 0.000). Finally outcome of the study showed that respondents living in Urban neighborhoods were more likely to experience violent victimization than those in rural communities (Lambda = 0.000, Phi = 0.106, Cramer’s V = 0.106 and p-value = 0.000). The study therefore recommends that policies and programs to address violence against women need to be sustainable, properly financed, and parcipatory-involving not only women but men. Also comprehensive victim support systems are essential, ecompassing legal and counseling since the study indicated women experience more of the negative impacts after being victimized.
