- 1. Homicide in Canada, 2012 ArchivedArticles and reports: 85-002-X201300111882Geography: Province or territory, Census metropolitan areaDescription:
This annual Juristat examines homicide in Canada. It includes information on the characteristics of homicide incidents (murder, manslaughter and infanticide), victims and accused persons. Short and long-term trends in homicide are presented at the national, provincial/territorial and census metropolitan area levels. Gang-related homicides, firearm-related homicides, intimate partner homicides, youth homicides and international comparisons of homicide are also explored.
Release date: 2013-12-19 - 2. Co-offending in Canada, 2011 ArchivedArticles and reports: 85-002-X201300111856Geography: CanadaDescription:
This Juristat article presents information on the nature and extent of co-offending in Canada. It addresses three key areas in relation to co-offending, including: the prevalence of co-offending, factors associated with co-offending and the seriousness of co-offending (i.e. whether incidents committed by two or more people are more or less serious than those committed by a lone accused). The article also examines other aspects related to co-offending, including street gangs, and clearance rates.
Release date: 2013-11-19 - Articles and reports: 11-626-X2013028Geography: CanadaDescription: This article in the Economic Insights series reports on changes in the production of Canada's forest industries. This article is published as part of a program at Statistics Canada that examines the role of natural resources in the Canadian economy.Release date: 2013-07-10
- 4. Migration: International, 2010 and 2011 ArchivedArticles and reports: 91-209-X201300111786Geography: Canada, Province or territoryDescription: This article on international migration will provide an overview of the current demographic situation regarding immigration to Canada analyzed within a historical and international context, where possible. In addition, the category of admission of immigrants to Canada, primarily during the 2010 and 2011 period, as well as place of birth, provincial or territorial destination within Canada of immigrants, and a brief section on international adoption will be discussed.Release date: 2013-07-09
- Articles and reports: 12-001-X201300111824Description:
In most surveys all sample units receive the same treatment and the same design features apply to all selected people and households. In this paper, it is explained how survey designs may be tailored to optimize quality given constraints on costs. Such designs are called adaptive survey designs. The basic ingredients of such designs are introduced, discussed and illustrated with various examples.
Release date: 2013-06-28 - 6. Combining cohorts in longitudinal surveys ArchivedArticles and reports: 12-001-X201300111828Description:
A question that commonly arises in longitudinal surveys is the issue of how to combine differing cohorts of the survey. In this paper we present a novel method for combining different cohorts, and using all available data, in a longitudinal survey to estimate parameters of a semiparametric model, which relates the response variable to a set of covariates. The procedure builds upon the Weighted Generalized Estimation Equation method for handling missing waves in longitudinal studies. Our method is set up under a joint-randomization framework for estimation of model parameters, which takes into account the superpopulation model as well as the survey design randomization. We also propose a design-based, and a joint-randomization, variance estimation method. To illustrate the methodology we apply it to the Survey of Doctorate Recipients, conducted by the U.S. National Science Foundation.
Release date: 2013-06-28 - 7. Language use in the workplace in Canada ArchivedStats in brief: 99-012-X201100311851Description:
This National Household Survey in brief presents key findings emerging from the analysis of data on languages of work in Canada in 2011. It provides information on the use of English, French and other languages at work. The analysis focuses on various levels of geography, including Canada, Quebec and the rest of Canada, and selected census metropolitan areas (CMAs).
Release date: 2013-06-26 - Articles and reports: 75-006-X201300111795Geography: CanadaDescription:
In Canada, one significant event that eventually led to the development of a policy of bilingualism was the beginning of the Royal Commission on bilingualism and biculturalism, 50 years ago. This article examines historical trends in bilingualism in Canada, and factors that might explain these trends.
Release date: 2013-05-28 - 9. Obtaining Canadian citizenship ArchivedStats in brief: 99-010-X201100311791Geography: CanadaDescription:
These three short articles provide complementary analysis to the 2011 National Household Survey (NHS) analytical document on immigration and ethnocultural diversity in Canada. They focus on specific topics of interest. The first NHS in Brief is entitled Generation status: Canadian-born children of immigrants, the second, Obtaining Canadian citizenship and the third, Mixed unions in Canada.
