    Description: The Health of Canadians report brings together important health data, both for the population overall and for specific groups, to provide a comprehensive portrait of population health and to shed light on health disparities. It includes key statistics on population health such as health outcomes (e.g., chronic conditions), health behaviours (e.g., exercise, nutrition), access to health care (e.g., unmet health care needs) and determinants of health (e.g., age, income).

    The Health of Canadians report is meant to be used by our federal, provincial and territorial partners, as well as health professionals, researchers, and policymakers across the country to inform policies and plans, leading to better, more equitable health outcomes for all Canadians.

    Description: Living under the poverty line means being unable to buy a basket of goods and services, like food, clothing and footwear, shelter, transportation, and other items. To further explore what is happening under the poverty line, the deep income poverty (DIP) line measures the cost of the most basic living necessities in a region and excludes other goods and services that many Canadians require but the poorest are most likely unable to afford. This paper uses the Canadian Income Survey to explore the deep income poverty in Canada as a measure between 2015 and 2022 and how it differs from the official poverty measure among sociodemographic groups. Poverty is a multifaceted issue and should not be summarized to a single indicator. While documenting the DIP measure, this paper also explores parallel indicators to complement the Market Basket Measure (MBM) of poverty.

    Description: This paper proposes a method of producing preliminary Market Basket Measure (MBM) poverty estimates up to seven months before the official release by using preliminary tax slips, while ensuring the estimates maintain reasonable revision and accuracy levels. Following the release of this paper, Statistics Canada will continue to provide preliminary poverty estimates each fall following the reference year using the methodology described in this paper. The official poverty estimates will continue to be released in the spring of the second year after the reference year.

    Description: The Canadian Income Survey (CIS) has introduced improvements to the methods and data sources used to produce income and poverty estimates with the release of its 2022 reference year estimates. Foremost among these improvements is a significant increase in the sample size for a large subset of the CIS content. The weighting methodology was also improved and the target population of the CIS was changed from persons aged 16 years and over to persons aged 15 years and over. This paper describes the changes made and presents the approximate net result of these changes on the income estimates and data quality of the CIS using 2021 data. The changes described in this paper highlight the ways in which data quality has been improved while having little impact on key CIS estimates and trends.
