Family income, 2000
Median family income rose for the fourth straight year in 2000, but it was still slightly less than what a family would have received as income a decade earlier. The median income of all families rose 2.2% in 2000 to $51,000 (after adjusting for inflation), continuing the trend of steady increases since 1997. In 1990, median family income was $51,900. (The median is the point at which half the incomes are higher, and half are lower.)

Management experience and diversity in an aging organization: a microsimulation analysis
The aging of the Canadian population is a well recognized phenomenon and has received considerable policy research attention, particularly in the health and public pension domains. Very little work has been focused on the impacts of aging at the organizational level. Foot and Venne studied the advancement of the baby boom through traditional organizational hierarchies, noting its impacts on human resource policies that encourage horizontal career development. Saba et al looked more particularly at the management of older professionals in the Quebec public service, finding that employee recognition was an important human resource strategy for motivating this group. We extend these studies further along the aging ladder -- to the point where retirement and replacement become the major concerns.
