Postcensal population estimates by various characteristics

July 1, 1997 to 2002

Preliminary postcensal estimates by age, sex and marital status at July 1, 2002, as well as the revised postcensal estimates at July 1, 1997 to 2001, are now available for Canada and for the provinces and territories. Estimates by age, sex and legal marital status are also available for the same years.

Note: These estimates are based on the 1996 Census counts adjusted for net undercoverage and do not take into account the population counts determined by the 2001 Census, which were released on March 12, 2002.

The 2001 Census coverage studies will be completed in 2003. Their results will be used to adjust the 2001 Census counts and to update the population estimates. These new estimates will be released in November 2003.

Available on CANSIM: table 051-0010.

Information on methods and data quality available in the Integrated Meta Data Base: survey number 3605.

The publication Annual demographic statistics, 2002 (91-213-XIB, $56; 91-213-XPB, $125), will be available on March 31. See How to order products.
