- Articles and reports: 16-002-X200900210889Geography: CanadaDescription:
Canada's renewable water resources are mostly the result of rain and melted snow that flow over the ground, eventually reaching our rivers and lakes. This article describes the results of a new methodology producing consistent national estimates of Canada's total annual average water yield from 1971 to 2000.
Release date: 2009-06-18 - 2. Who uses water-saving fixtures in the home? ArchivedArticles and reports: 16-002-X200800310686Geography: CanadaDescription: Canadians use large amounts of water every day. Household fixtures such as low-flow shower heads and reduced volume toilets allow households to conserve water and reduce utility bills. The study uses data from the 1994 and 2006 Households and the Environment Surveys, to examine use of these water-saving fixtures.Release date: 2008-09-25
- Articles and reports: 16-002-X200800210622Geography: CanadaDescription:
Fishing or angling has historically been a popular leisure activity for both Canadians and visitors alike. This article provides a portrait of recreational fishing in Canada.
Release date: 2008-06-25 - 4. Canadian Environmental Sustainability Indicators: Freshwater Quality Indicator: Data Sources and Methods ArchivedJournals and periodicals: 16-256-XGeography: CanadaDescription:
This report presents details on the data sources and methods underlying the freshwater quality indicator as it was reported in the Canadian Environmental Sustainability Indicators, 2007 (16-251-XWE). The national freshwater quality indicator provides an overall measure of the suitability of water bodies to support aquatic life in selected monitoring sites in Canada.
Details on this indicator reported after 2007 can be found on Environment Canada's site: www.ec.gc.ca/indicateurs-indicators/
Release date: 2008-06-20 - Articles and reports: 11-624-M2008019Geography: CanadaDescription:
The overall growth of government-owned infrastructure has been very similar across most regions over the past 44 years. With the exception of the Atlantic Provinces, the range of average annual capital growth from one region to the next has been very narrow, falling between 1.8% and 2.2% since 1961, according to a new study released in September 2007 in the Canadian Economic Observer.
Since 2000, governments have increased their infrastructure capital more than at any time since the 1960s and 1970s. However, the growth has not been strong enough to prevent more and more signs of wear in our infrastructure (the data are net of depreciation and in constant 1997 dollars). This is due to cuts in the 1990s when governments were grappling with significant budgetary deficits, as well as many of the assets built in the post-war infrastructure boom reaching the end of their life span.
This study analyses, from 1961 to 2005, government investment in infrastructure by different levels of government and type of asset by region.
Release date: 2008-02-07 - 6. Canada's natural resource wealth at a glance ArchivedArticles and reports: 16-002-X200700310454Geography: CanadaDescription:
Natural resources, including energy, timber and minerals, contribute significantly to Canada's total wealth. This article examines the growth in resource wealth, from 1997 to 2006. It also describes the changes in natural resource prices, reserves and extraction costs.
Release date: 2007-12-10 - 7. Population change in Canada's drainage areas ArchivedThematic map: 16-002-X200700310457Geography: CanadaDescription:
Data from the Census are mapped, showing how Canada's population changed from 1981 to 2006.
Release date: 2007-12-10 - Journals and periodicals: 16-252-XGeography: CanadaDescription:
This annual report provides a summary of the key findings from Canadian Environmental Sustainability Indicators. It presents a synopsis for each of the environmental indicators: water quality, air quality, and greenhouse gas emissions. The report provides answers to the following questions for each of the three indicators: What is the issue? What is happening? What does it mean? Why is it happening? The indicators are intended to assist those in government responsible for developing policy and measuring performance, while also helping individual Canadians who want to know more about the trends in their environment.
The indicator reports from 2005 to 2007 can be found below. All later indicator reports can be found on Environment Canada's site: www.ec.gc.ca/indicateurs-indicators/.

Release date: 2007-10-15 - Articles and reports: 11-010-X200700910332Geography: CanadaDescription:
This article finds that the volume of infrastructure capital has rebounded since 2000 after two decades of neglect. While infrastructure growth has been similar across regions, there are sharp differences in the type of asset targeted by the regions, especially when spending slowed after 1980.
Release date: 2007-09-13 - Articles and reports: 21-006-X2005006Geography: CanadaDescription: This bulletin groups watersheds according to the share of their population that is designated as "census rural" in order to profile the rural versus urban demographic structure of watersheds across Canada.Release date: 2006-01-05
