In 2015, a federal statistics agency in Canada (StatCan) released a report based on census data that included self-reported rates of spousal violence victimisation. My recall of the numbers isn't perfect, but I believe 342,000 women reported being the victims of spousal violence... as did 420,000 men. To me, this suggested a massive underrporting in official violent offenses against men. StatCan has since changed how these numbers are reported and women are overrepresented by a huge margin now.
If you look at police statistics in Canadian provinces, they characterise their numbers as "police-reported" so those numbers can't be trusted at all.
Impossible to say, however...
