* The long-term trend in the incidence of circumcision in Canada is down.
* The ratio of intact fathers to circumcised fathers is changing toward more intact fathers and fewer circumcised fathers. Boys who were born after the decline in circumcision started and who are intact are now reaching the age at which they start families and become fathers. Intact men usually do not want any son to be circumcised, so they will usually not have a son circumcised. <ref name="rediger-muller2013" /> This will cause a further decline in the incidence of circumcision.

A recent report indicated that non-therapeutic circumcision of boys is no longer available on P.E.I. because no practitioner will perform the non-therapeutic amputation of part of a boy's penis.<ref>{{REFnews
