Current demographic situation in Canada, 2005 and 2006 - ARCHIVED

The goal of this analysis is two-fold: to present an overview of the migratory movements in Canada during the last intercensal period and, to look at the socio-demographic characteristics of migrants enumerated in the 2006 Census. This first part provides a portrait of the mobility of Canadians between 2001 and 2006. The article examines the current demographic situation with regards to Population growth and age structure, Fertility and induced abortions, Mortality, International immigration, Interprovincial migration and Nuptiality and divorce. For consistency, it follows the structure of previous census releases.
