===Canada===
The practice of non-therapeutic circumcision in [[Canada]] has been declining for decades. The [[medical trade association| medical trade associations]] do not support the practice, most hospitals usually do not provide non-therapeutic [[circumcision]], and the fourteen health insurance plans do not pay for it. Statistics have not been collected since 2006, so do not reflect the current reality.<ref>{{REFdocument |title=What Mothers Say: The Canadian Maternity Experiences Survey |url=https://www.canada.ca/content/dam/phac-aspc/migration/phac-aspc/rhs-ssg/pdf/survey-eng.pdf |contribution= |last= |first= |publisher=Public Health Agency of Canada |format=PDF |date=2009 |accessdate=2014-02-06}}</ref>. The incidence of circumcision varies widely by province and ethnicity, so it is difficult to produce a statistic for all-Canada. [[Foreskinned]] males are in the majority in all provinces and territories.
