Report on the demographic situation in Canada 1997.

The Report on the Demographic Situation in Canada takes stock of the changes that have taken place in Canadian society and compares them to those of other industrialized nations. Changes in behaviour relating to the life of Canadian couples to third order births and to contraception are the subject of in-depth analysis. In recent years Statistics Canada has contributed to a major United Nations study on the economic situation of the elderly population in industrialized nations. In the second part of the Report the situation of the elderly in Canada is analysed taking account of the relationship between living arrangements and the economic circumstances of seniors.
