224. Premature mortality in health regions with high Aboriginal populations Archived
Articles and reports: 82-003-X20030016765
Geography: Canada
Description:
This article examines the rate of potential years of life lost--a measure used to quantify premature mortality in differing health regions. The rate was considerably higher in health regions with large proportions of Aboriginal residents, compared with other health regions. Much of this difference was attributable to injuries in the high-Aboriginal regions; notably, suicides and motor vehicle accidents.

The CVS:D is an administrative survey that collects demographic and medical (cause of death) information from all provincial and territorial vital statistics registries on all deaths in Canada. With this tool, data users can explore current and historical weekly trends of deaths for each province and territory. Key variables such as age group and sex are also presented in interactive charts. The interactive tool allows users to examine excess deaths by comparing the trend in weekly deaths in 2020 to the trends in weekly deaths in previous years.

31. Excess mortality in Canada during the COVID-19 pandemic Archived
Stats in brief: 45-28-0001202000100076
Description:
COVID-19 has had and continues to have a clear impact on communities and families across the country. Many have lost family members and friends to the pandemic. In terms of lives lost, the toll of the COVID-19 pandemic should account for both the direct and indirect effects of the virus. Excess mortality, which occurs when there are more deaths during a period of time than what would be typical for that period, is one key measure that accounts for these effects. Statistics Canada used provisional data on deaths in Canada to produce provisional death estimates, which have been adjusted to account for the incomplete nature of the data due to reporting delays. These are in turn used with a measure of the number of deaths that would be expected to be observed were there no pandemic to produce an estimate of excess mortality. The provincial and territorial results are discussed.

39. Does geography matter in mortality? An analysis of potentially avoidable mortality by remoteness index in Canada Archived
Articles and reports: 82-003-X201900500001
Description:
This study uses the new remoteness index (RI) classification, which assigns a value to each census subdivision (CSD) and measures the relative remoteness of Canadian communities on the basis of their size and their proximity to surrounding population centres, to distinguish rural and remote areas from urban areas in Canada. The Canadian Vital Statistics-Death Database (2011 to 2015), and the 2016 Census of Population are also used in this study to examine major causes of both preventable and treatable mortality by relative remoteness of Canadian communities. It explores the interrelationship between remoteness and avoidable mortality while taking into account three important variables: average household income after-tax, the proportion of postsecondary graduates and the proportion of Aboriginal population by CSD.
