- 1. Mortality: Overview, 2008 and 2009 ArchivedStats in brief: 91-209-X201300111785Geography: CanadaDescription: This article examines mortality in Canada primarily for the year 2008 and 2009 including infant mortality, the probability of dying and life expectancy for males and females.Release date: 2013-07-09
- 2. Mortality: Overview, 2007 ArchivedStats in brief: 91-209-X201100111524Geography: CanadaDescription:
This section of the mortality articles examines mortality in Canada primarily for the year 2006 and 2007 including infant mortality, the probability of dying and life expectancy for males and females.
Release date: 2011-07-20 - 3. Mortality: Causes of death, 2007 ArchivedStats in brief: 91-209-X201100111525Geography: CanadaDescription:
This section of the mortality articles, on causes of death, examines the leading causes for men and women in Canada, including changes during the past several decades, as well as current patterns by age groups.
Release date: 2011-07-20 - 4. Multiple causes of death ArchivedArticles and reports: 82-003-X19970023235Geography: CanadaDescription:
This article illustrates analytical uses of multiple-cause-of-death data, which reflect all causes entered on the death certificate, not only the single, underlying cause. Heart diseases are used as an example.
Release date: 1997-10-07 - 5. Monthly and daily patterns of death ArchivedArticles and reports: 82-003-X19970013059Geography: CanadaDescription:
Using Canadian mortality data from 1974 to 1995, this article examines seasonal and daily patterns of death by cause.
Release date: 1997-07-28 - 6. Cancer incidence and mortality, 1997 ArchivedArticles and reports: 82-003-X19960043024Geography: CanadaDescription:
In 1997, there will be an estimated 130,800 new cases of cancer and 60,700 deaths from the disease, an increase of one third and one quarter, respectively, over 1987. These increases are due mainly to the growth and aging of the population. (All figures exclude non-melanoma skin cancer.) In 1997, three types of cancer will account for at least half of all new cases in men and women: prostate, lung and colorectal cancer for men; breast, lung and colorectal cancer for women. Lung cancer will be the leading cause of cancer death in 1997, resulting in one-third of cancer deaths for men and almost one-quarter of cancer deaths for women. Among women, overall trends in age-standardized rates of cancer incidence and mortality have remained relatively stable since 1985, as large increases in the rate of lung cancer have been offset by declining or stable rates for most other forms. Among men, the overall incidence rate is rising slightly as a result of the sharp increase in the incidence of prostate cancer. The mortality rate for men peaked in 1988 and has since declined, because of decreases in the rates for lung, colorectal and some other cancers. This article presents information on trends since the mid-1980s in cancer incidence and mortality, adapted from Canadian Cancer Statistics 1987.
Release date: 1997-04-21 - 7. Trends in breast cancer incidence and mortality ArchivedArticles and reports: 82-003-X19960022829Geography: CanadaDescription:
Breast cancer is the leading form of cancer diagnosed in Canadian women (excluding non-melanoma skin cancer), accounting for about 30% of all new cases. After age 30, incidence rates begin to rise, and the highest rates are among women aged 60 and over. Canadian incidence rates have increased slowly and steadily since 1969, rising most rapidly among women aged 50 and over. Canada's rates are among the highest of any country in the world, ranking second only to those in the United States. After decades of little change, breast cancer mortality rates for all ages combined have declined slightly since 1990. While not dramatic, this decline is statistically significant and is consistent with similar decreases in the United Kingdom, the United States, and Australia. Breast cancer survival rates are relatively more favourable than those of other forms of cancer. Survival rates are better for younger women and for women whose cancer was detected at an early stage. This article presents breast cancer data from the Canadian Cancer Registry, the National Cancer Incidence Reporting System, and vital statistics mortality data, all of which are maintained by the Health Statistics Division of Statistics Canada. These data are provided to Statistics Canada by the provincial and territorial cancer and vital statistics registrars.
