Changes in the socioeconomic situation of Canada’s Black population, 2001 to 2016

This study examines the evolution of the socioeconomic situation of the Black population in Canada for the period 2001 to 2016. The main subjects treated are the family situation, the levels of education, employment and wages for the adult population (25-59 years-old), as well as the low income situation of children (less than 15 years-old). Black populations are compared with the rest of the population along two dimensions: sex and generation status.
