1. Inequalities in access to primary care services and health insurance in Black adults in Canada
Articles and reports: 82-003-X202600700001
Description: Previous research has shown that Black adults in Canada experience higher cause-specific mortality and differential rates of diagnosis and hospitalization compared with White adults. These disparities may reflect underlying differences in access to health care. This study used pooled data from the annual Canadian Community Health Survey from 2015 to 2019 to assess whether inequalities in access to primary and pharmaceutical health care exist between Black and White adults in Canada and sought to identify how specific factors contribute to observed inequalities.

2. Difficulties accessing specialist care and the association with unmet health care needs among middle-aged and older Canadians
Articles and reports: 82-003-X202600700002
Description: Canada’s population is aging rapidly, with implications for the health care system, including increasing demand for specialist care. However, few studies have examined factors associated with specialist care use. Data from the 2024 Survey on Health Care Access and Experiences – Primary and Specialist Care were used in this study to identify factors associated with specialist care use, difficulty accessing specialist care, and to examine the relationship between access difficulties and unmet health care needs among middle-aged (45 to 64 years) and older (65 years or older) adults in Canada.

3. Canadian Active Living Environments 2.0: Development of an open-source pipeline for the replication and extension of the Canadian Active Living Environments measure
Articles and reports: 82-003-X202600600001
Description: The Canadian Active Living Environments (Can-ALE) project was developed in 2019 to provide a standardized, pan-Canadian indicator of how supportive neighbourhood built environments are for physical activity and active transportation, enabling comparisons across places and over time. Can-ALE 1.0 produced measures for the 2006 and 2016 census years, but it did not include 2011 or 2021. As well, the data and processing steps were not packaged in a fully reproducible format, limiting longitudinal analyses and replication. In this study, the original measure was replicated and extended by developing Can-ALE 2.0, an open-source, reproducible R-based workflow to generate Can-ALE metrics for the 2011, 2016, and 2021 census years.

4. Patient experiences with virtual health care in Canada: Modes of delivery and satisfaction with care
Articles and reports: 82-003-X202600600002
Description: The COVID-19 pandemic expanded virtual care through telephone, video, and digital communication, with usage patterns varying by patients’ sociodemographic and health characteristics. Continued virtual care use after the pandemic highlights the need for updated information on modality choice and patient satisfaction. This study used data from the 2023 Canadian Social Survey – Quality of Life, Virtual Health Care and Trust, to estimate the distribution of virtual care modes by provider type, positive and negative aspects of patients’ last virtual appointment, and satisfaction levels.

5. Geographic variation in female breast cancer incidence and mortality in Canada
Articles and reports: 82-003-X202600500001
Description: Previous research has found variability in cancer incidence and cancer-related outcomes according to place of residence. This study examined geographic variability in the incidence and mortality of breast cancer among females in Canada, using data from the 2021 Canadian Cancer Registry (breast cancer incidence) and the Canadian Vital Statistics – Death database (breast cancer mortality). Age-standardized incidence rates (ASIRs) and age-standardized mortality rates (ASMRs) per 100,000 females per year and their rate ratios were calculated, as well as age group-specific and age-standardized stage-specific incidence rates, and examined across provinces and territories, community sizes, and peer groups (i.e., clusters of health regions with similar socioeconomic and demographic characteristics).

6. Enhancing the OncoSim-Breast model using Canadian breast density information
Articles and reports: 82-003-X202600500002
Description: Breast cancer is the most commonly diagnosed cancer among women in Canada. Breast density substantially influences breast cancer risk and mammography performance. However, OncoSim-Breast, a Canadian microsimulation model representing breast cancer control, including cancer onset, screening, and survival, has not previously explicitly accounted for breast density. This study describes the incorporation of density-specific parameters—prevalence, relative risk of breast cancer, and digital mammography performance (sensitivity and specificity)—using data from five Canadian provinces, into the OncoSim-Breast model. Calibration experiments and internal validations were conducted to ensure the updated OncoSim-Breast model aligned with observed data from the Canadian Cancer Registry.

7. Preterm births among mothers from racialized groups, 2016-2021
Articles and reports: 82-625-X202600100001
Description: This is a health fact sheet about preterm births among mothers from racialized groups. This analysis includes live births from the five-year period preceding the 2021 Census.

8. Perceived mental health, symptoms of depression and consultations with a mental health professional, Territories, 2023/2024
Articles and reports: 82-625-X202600100002
Description: Perceived mental health, symptoms of depression and consultations with a mental health professional, among adults living in the territories.

9. Socioeconomic correlates of loneliness among immigrants with disabilities
Articles and reports: 36-28-0001202600400004
Description: The experience of loneliness is not evenly distributed in the population but disproportionately affects certain social groups. For example, persons with disabilities have a greater risk of loneliness than persons without disabilities and immigrants have a greater risk of loneliness than Canadian-born persons. This study examines how differences in the experience of loneliness between immigrants and Canadian-born persons with disabilities emerge in the context of socioeconomic participation (employment and school attendance) and socioeconomic deprivation (food insecurity, core housing need, low-income status), using data from the 2022 Canadian Survey on Disability.

10. Navigating health care: Regular health care provider access among recent immigrants, established immigrants and non-immigrants
Articles and reports: 75-006-X202600100004
Description: This study uses data from the 2024 Survey on Health Care Access and Experiences – Primary and Specialist Care to analyze the prevalence of having a regular health care provider among immigrants and non-immigrants. Specifically, the study examines differences in access between recent immigrants, established immigrants and non-immigrants, and how these patterns vary by demographic and socioeconomic factors.
