- Articles and reports: 18-001-X2020001Description:
This paper presents the methodology used to generate the first nationwide database of proximity measures and the results obtained with a first set of ten measures. The computational methods are presented as a generalizable model due to the fact that it is now possible to apply similar methods to a multitude of other services or amenities, in a variety of alternative specifications.

This study provides a broad understanding of the business environments in Indigenous communities - First Nations and Inuit - across Canada. These communities are typically located in rural low density or remote areas. The analysis profiles businesses located in Indigenous communities and compares them with businesses located in Non-Indigenous communities with similar population size parameters; hence, this analysis uses a geographic concept (i.e., the type of community) to connect the business dimension with the Indigenous dimension, as opposed to businesses whose ownership identifies as indigenous.
The profile is based on a set of straightforward business indicators, including business counts, entry and exit, age, revenue and profit indicators, which are tabulated by various classes of businesses defined for the study (industry groupings, employment size, revenue size, etc.). Some tables also feature province and territory geography. All business data are from Statistics Canada's Business Register (BR) January 2017 reference period. The 2011 Census geography is used as the January 2017 BR is based on that classification. The tables are presented by type of community. The results highlight both differences and similarities between the business environments of Indigenous communities and included Non-Indigenous communities.
Release date: 2019-08-28 - Articles and reports: 18-001-X2017002Description:
This working paper presents a methodology to measure remoteness at the community level. The method takes into account some of the recent literature on the subject, as well as new computational opportunities provided by the integration of official statistics with data from non-official statistical sources. The approach that was used in the computations accounts for multiple points of access to services; it also establishes a continuum between communities with different transportation infrastructures and connectivity while at the same time retaining the information on the community transportation infrastructures in the database. In addition, a method to implement accessibility measures to selected services is also outlined and a sample of accessibility measures are computed.
Release date: 2017-05-09 - 4. The Social Economy Across the Rural to Urban Gradient: Evidence from Registered Charities ArchivedArticles and reports: 21-601-M2010092Description:
The objective of this paper is to present a profile of registered charities across the rural to urban gradient.
Release date: 2010-05-18 - Articles and reports: 21-006-X2008004Geography: CanadaDescription:
The analysis presented in this bulletin suggests that there are two main forces that shape community population trajectories: sector restructuring and agglomeration. The results presented in this bulletin are based on data from the 1981 and 2006 Census of Population.
Release date: 2010-03-08 - Articles and reports: 21-006-X2008001Geography: CanadaDescription:
This bulletin is a summary of a larger working paper which contains more details on the theoretical framework, data and variable selection, estimation procedure, probability estimates and some mapping and simulation analysis (Alasia et Al. 2007).
Release date: 2009-03-09 - Articles and reports: 21-006-X2007005Geography: CanadaDescription: This bulletin's analysis focuses on the effect of "rurality" in determining: 1) water consumption flows at the municipal level; and 2) water quality perception of a household, as proxied by the water treatment choice of a household.Release date: 2009-01-23
- 8. Rural commuting ArchivedArticles and reports: 75-001-X200811113220Geography: CanadaDescription:
Commuting is, to a large extent, an urban phenomenon. Close to 80% of commuting takes place between municipalities within larger urban centres. But commuting patterns are becoming increasingly complex and rural commuting is more complex than commonly believed. For persons in rural and small-town areas, rural-to-rural commuting is as large as rural-to-urban commuting. Moreover, rural jobs are more than twice as reliant on in-commuting rural workers as they are on in-commuting urban workers.
Release date: 2008-12-18 - Articles and reports: 21-006-X2007006Geography: CanadaDescription:
This bulletin presents baseline data on the pattern and size of rural commuting flows in 2001 and provides a better understanding of how rural communities are affected by both urban-bound commuters and rural-bound commuters. It also shows that Canada's Census Metropolitan Areas and Census Agglomerations (larger urban centres), which are delineated on the basis of commuting flows, essentially constitute self-contained labour markets.
Release date: 2008-09-17 - 10. An Index of Community Vulnerability: Conceptual Framework and Application to Population and Employment Changes ArchivedArticles and reports: 21-601-M2008088Description:
The results of this research show that exposure to global restructuring trends increases community vulnerability to population and employment decline. Similarly, other condititions of community distress, such as high unemployment rates and low participation rates, increase the vulnerability to decline. Community assets, such as human capital, economic diversification, and proximity to agglomerations, reduce vulnerability to population and employment decline.
