- 551. South Asians in Canada: Unity through diversity ArchivedArticles and reports: 11-008-X20050028455Geography: CanadaDescription:
Numbering 917,000 in 2001, South Asians were the second largest visible minority group in Canada, just behind the Chinese at slightly over one million people. The South Asian community is one of the most diverse visible minority groups, consisting of a range of ethnic, religious and linguistic groups whose ancestries, immigration histories and personal experiences are quite varied. Using data from the 2002 Ethnic Diversity Survey (EDS) and the 2001 Census of Population, this article examines the diversity of the South Asian population in Canada, traces their history in this country and looks at how their ethnic and cultural backgrounds are reflected in their everyday lives.

Release date: 2005-07-26 - 554. Property taxes relative to income ArchivedArticles and reports: 75-001-X200510313137Geography: CanadaDescription:
Local government revenues are increasingly perceived as inadequate to fund the program responsibilities of municipalities. Property taxes (residential and non-residential) are by far the most important revenue source, accounting for 35% in 2003 (up from 30% in 1988). But, residential property taxes are commonly viewed as regressive in relation to income. This study uses the 2001 Census of Population to quantify the regressiveness of residential property taxes in Canadian municipalities, and to examine whether regressive taxes are generally attributable to lower-income seniors living in high-priced homes.

Release date: 2004-12-15 - 557. Languages in Canada: 2001 Census ArchivedJournals and periodicals: 96-326-XGeography: CanadaDescription:
This work is an updated version of a study published under the same title following the population censuses of 1991 and 1996. The text and tables have been adapted to reflect the more complete data from the 2001 Census, in which the usual questions on knowledge of languages, mother tongue, and language spoken 'most often' at home are supplemented by a question on languages spoken 'regularly' at home , and a two-part question on language use at work, that is, the language used 'most often,' and other languages used 'regularly,' in the workplace. This enrichment of the content has allowed us to expand our analysis while remaining true to the initial goal of presenting in a straightfoward manner basic statistics on the country's demolinguistic reality.
Release date: 2004-12-13 - 558. Victim services in Canada, 2002/03 ArchivedArticles and reports: 85-002-X20040118410Geography: CanadaDescription:

Release date: 2004-12-09 - 559. Low-paid workers: How many live in low-income families? ArchivedArticles and reports: 75-001-X200411013128Geography: CanadaDescription:
Who were the low-wage earners in 2000, what proportion lived in low-income families, and how did the situation change between 1980 and 2000? Low wages need not mean economic hardship: for example young people living with their parents or spouses who are secondary earners may not be at risk. However, groups such as recent immigrants, lone mothers, and unattached individuals may well be at risk.
Release date: 2004-10-26 - 560. Immigrants: Settling for less? ArchivedArticles and reports: 75-001-X200410613121Geography: CanadaDescription:

To maintain the relevance of the census, Statistics Canada evaluates and reviews the census questionnaire content for each census cycle.
