Report on the demographic situation in Canada
2000
This report, available today, is a valuable tool for researchers, academics and students seeking information on demographic trends in Canada. The first part comprehensively reviews the Canadian demographic situation, describing recent trends in population growth, fertility, and migration.
The second part consists of four studies. The first is an analysis of the impact of smoking on disability-free life expectancy. The second looks at the impact of causes of death on changes in life expectancy at higher ages since 1951. Two others analyse emerging issues in family demography: the links between demographic changes and the economic well-being of families with preschool-age children, and the birth of children into blended families.
The 2000 issue of the Report on the demographic situation in Canada (91-209-XPE, $31) is now available. For more information, contact Alain Bélanger (613-951-2326), Demography Division.
