- 1. Women and health ArchivedArticles and reports: 89-503-X201000111543Geography: CanadaDescription:
This chapter examines five major dimensions of health, comparing women and men in different age groups. The first section looks at well-being and measures of good physical and mental health, including some fitness measures. The second section examines chronic health conditions and mental health problems. The third section shows data on risk factors and health-related behaviours (diet, physical activity and tobacco use). The fourth section deals with accessing and using health care services, and the last section presents statistics on life expectancy, death and causes of death.
Release date: 2011-12-14 - 2. Women with activity limitations ArchivedArticles and reports: 89-503-X201000111545Geography: CanadaDescription:
This chapter examines the basic demographic characteristics of women and men with disabilities, the types and causes of their activity limitations, the domain in which the disabilities reported most often manifest themselves, the education and income of women with and without disabilities, and their experiences in the workforce.
Release date: 2011-12-14 - 3. Senior women ArchivedArticles and reports: 89-503-X201000111441Geography: CanadaDescription:
This chapter, entitled Senior Women, provides an overview of the situation of senior women in the population, analyzed from an historical perspective when applicable. We will examine their sociodemographic characteristics, including life expectancy, diversity, and family situation. Various factors are also associated with this population's well-being, such as social life, economic situation and health; we will therefore explore social networks and subjective well-being, volunteering, and the most recent trends in the labour force participation and income of senior women. Finally, we will present the most prevalent chronic health conditions in senior women, their lifestyle habits, the formal and informal care to which they have access, and the causes of death.
Release date: 2011-07-26 - 4. First Nations, Métis and Inuit women ArchivedArticles and reports: 89-503-X201000111442Geography: CanadaDescription:
This article, First Nations, Métis and Inuit Women explores the diverse circumstances and experiences of Aboriginal women in Canada. Overall, it highlights their demographic characteristics, families, housing, language, employment, income, education, justice and health. Where possible, data on First Nations, Métis and Inuit women are compared with those of their male counterparts and with non-Aboriginal women.
Release date: 2011-07-26 - 5. Use of cannabis and other illicit drugs ArchivedArticles and reports: 82-003-X20030046976Geography: CanadaDescription:
Cannabis use has increased over the past decade.
Males, teenagers and young adults were most likely to have used cannabis in the past year.
Cocaine/Crack was the second most commonly used illicit drug.
Release date: 2004-07-21 - Articles and reports: 21-006-X2003003Geography: CanadaDescription:
This study examines the health status of Canadian youth (ages 12 to 17) living in the largest metropolitan centres with those living in the northern regions. Information on whether health risk behaviours of urban youth are different from those of rural youth can assist families, policy-makers and local communities to target policies, programs and services at an appropriate geographic level. This analysis can also help to support claims made about youth behaviours or alternatively to dispel myths.
