    Canada’s population growth masks some very different trends from one region to another. Using various data sources, including Statistics Canada’s most recent projections on population and diversity, this article provides a general overview of these trends and discusses how recent demographic changes could impact the age structure, diversity and population share of the various regions of Canada over the next decades.

  • Articles and reports: 91-209-X201100111508
    Description: This article examines the estimated population count and growth for Canada, the provinces and territories as of January 1, 2011 and analyzes the demographic components that account for this growth. The total, natural and migratory population growth rates are examined from 1972 to 2010, followed by an in-depth study of the growth rate for the past year (2009 to 2010) at the provincial level and territorial level.

  • Articles and reports: 91-209-X201100111510
    Description: This article examines population growth at the subprovincial level. There was much variation in population growth at the subprovincial level between July 1, 2009 and June 30, 2010 with some areas growing more rapidly than others. Higher growth in some census divisions can be attributed to one or more factors such as urban sprawl around large metropolitan areas, net intraprovincial migration as well as natural increase. The article examines the high population growth in Saskatchewan's census metropolitan areas, as well as the settlement pattern of international migrants.

    Description:

    This article examines the age and sex structure within Canada's provinces and territories as of July 1st, 2010. As population aging is observed, a few themes are discussed: the senior population continues to grow, the population of older working-age increases and the share of children decreases. The author also examines the provincial and territorial variations of aging within Canada.

    Geography: Canada
    Description: This article on the age and sex structure of the different regions of Canada, (subprovincial level) examines the indicators of median age- the age at which half the population is older and half is younger- as well as the distribution of the population at particular age groups, especially seniors aged 65 years and over and children aged 14 years and under. It also includes a section on aging in census metropolitan areas, which occurs more slowly than the rest of Canada.

  • Articles and reports: 91F0015M2005007
    Geography: Canada
    Description:

    The Population Estimates Program at Statistics Canada is using internal migration estimates derived from administrative sources of data. There are two versions of migration estimates currently available, preliminary (P), based on Child Tax Credit information and final (F), produced using information from income tax reports. For some reference dates they could be significantly different. This paper summarises the research undertaken in Demography Division to modify the current method for preliminary estimates in order to decrease those differences. After a brief analysis of the differences, six methods are tested: 1) regression of out-migration; 2) regression of in- and out-migration separately; 3) regression of net migration; 4) the exponentially weighted moving average; 5) the U.S. Bureau of Census approach; and 6) method of using the first difference regression. It seems that the methods in which final and preliminary migration data are combined to estimate preliminary net migration (Method 3) are the best approach to improve convergence between preliminary and final estimates of internal migration for the Population Estimation Program. This approach allows for "smoothing" of some erratic patterns displayed by the former method while preserving CTB data's ability to capture current shifts in migration patterns.
