To achieve this objective, we are continuing to advance the four elements of Gathering Strength - Canada's Aboriginal Action Plan http://www.aincinac. gc.ca/gs/index_e.html Strong communities, people and economies; Strengthened Aboriginal governance; A new fiscal relationship; and Renewed partnerships. As we move forward, we recognize the need for a balanced, integrated approach, in which economic and social development go hand in hand. Our efforts are focussed on achieving a better quality of life for First Nations, Inuit and Northerners, through economic participation built on strong foundations of governance, human capital and infrastructure. Specifically, INAC is focussing its activities in areas that provide an integrated, coherent direction for the department and that will yield positive results in the short, medium, and long term. By providing a solid base for good governance, First Nations are well equipped to fully participate in Canada's social and economic development. In addition, investments in education and strong social programming ensure First Nations communities and individuals are healthy and competitive. Furthermore, activities such as resolving claims and investing in the vast resource potential of Canada's North are contributing to a climate of opportunity and growth for not only First Nations, Inuit and Northerners, but all Canadians.

Canadian Journal of Criminology; July 01, 2001; Carrington, Peter J. Carrington, Peter J. Canadian Journal of Criminology July 01, 2001 The Canadian population, like that of other Western countries, has been aging since the 1970's, and is expected to continue aging for the foreseeable future. As the proportion of crime-prone young people in the Canadian population falls, and that of older people rises, the overall crime rate should fall. This paper explores the implications of demographic change for crime in Canada in the next forty years. The role of demographic change as a determinant and predictor of crime rates was established by studies of the rise in American crime rates in the 1960's (Sagi and Wellford 1968; Ferdinand 1970; Wellford 1973), and their fall in the late 1970's and 1980's (Cohen and Land 1987; Steffensmeier and Harer 1987, 1991). These writers showed that a substantial part of these politically sensitive crime trends was explained simply by the changing age composition of the American population, primarily the aging of the baby boomers. Overall crime rates rose as this Tools:

Tuesday, March 22, 2005 Study: Canada's visible minority population in 2017 Roughly one out of every five people in Canada, or between 19% and 23% of the nation's population, could be a member of a visible minority by 2017 when Canada celebrates its 150th anniversary, according to new ethno-cultural population projections. Under the scenarios considered for these projections, Canada would have between 6.3 million and 8.5 million visible minorities 12 years from now. Depending on the growth scenario, this would be an increase ranging from 56% to 111% from 2001, when their number was estimated at about 4.0 million. In contrast, the projected increase for the rest of the population was estimated at between only 1% and 7% between 2001 and 2017. In 2001, 13% of the population identified themselves as belonging to a visible minority group as defined in the Employment Equity Act Data from past censuses showed that the visible minority population is growing much faster than the total population. Between 1996 and 2001, the total population increased 4% while the visible minority population rose 25% or six times faster. The study showed that regardless of the scenario (low growth or high growth) the visible minority population would continue increasing at a faster pace than the rest of the population between now and 2017.

109. Canada's Population Although Canada s population is growing slowly, our growth rate is higher than that Global population growth has global impacts that are felt in Canada, http://www.sustreport.org/signals/canpop_ttl.html

CANADA'S POPULATION Total population is a simple count of the number of people (citizens and landed immigrants) living in Canada. Population increase is a fundamental driving force of change. It automatically increases human consumption of natural resources and releases of pollution, unless consumption patterns change to reduce per capita impacts. Historically, rates of consumption and pollution have been rising faster than population, both in Canada and globally. The world passed a historic landmark this fall, when the global population crossed the six billion mark, a doubling since the late 1950s. The rate of population increase is slowing, but is still at about 78 million new inhabitants of Earth every year. Current UN estimates are that we will hit 7 billion in only 13 more years, 8 billion in 28 years and 9 billion by just after mid-century. Although Canada's population is growing slowly, our growth rate is higher than that in most industrialized countries. Our population growth is concentrated in areas with considerable environmental stresses, particularly around Toronto and Vancouver. Global population growth has global impacts that are felt in Canada, including pressures on the environment and demand for products that we export. Year Population (000’s) Assumptions about the Data Although population in Canada has increased steadily since Confederation in 1867, this has largely been due to immigration, and not natural increase.

According to the 2001 census, more than 200 ethnic origins are represented in Canada. About 13.5 percent of the population is a member of a visible minority group and that proportion is expected to reach 20 percent by 2016. Immigration now accounts for more than 50 percent of Canada's population growth, with immigrants coming mainly from Asia and the Middle East. It is projected that, after 2025, Canada's population growth will be based solely on immigration. Studies and surveys show that obstacles, including systemic barriers, exist and continue to prevent some Canadians, because of ethnicity, culture or race, from fully accessing essential services and programs. With the increasing diversity of the population it is becoming essential for government institutions to examine their policies, programs and services, first of all, to ensure they are accessible to all Canadians, regardless of their ethnic, religious and racial backgrounds, and second, to ensure that they meet the changing needs of a multicultural Canadian population.

The Future Population of Canada and Its Age Distribution Author info Abstract Publisher info Download info ... Statistics Author Info Frank T. Denton Christine H. Feaver Byron G. Spencer Additional information is available for the following registered author(s): Christine H. Feaver Abstract This paper makes available a number of projections of the age-sex distribution of the Canadian population for the 45-year period 1996 to 2041 and comparisons with the previous 45-year period. The projections combine assumptions relating to fertility, mortality, and migration so as to produce future populations characterised as "medium", "old", "young", "high immigration" and "low immigration". Supplementary calculations include growth rates, for both the total population and selected age groups, and various types of dependency ratios, including ones with a range of age-differentiated weights. It is concluded that substantial aging of the Canadian population appears virtually certain but, based on the demographic evidence, the "dependency burden" is likely to remain below the peak levels attained during the baby boom.

Development Population The curves of the population pyramid in Figures 1-1 to 1-3 represent visually the differences in population distribution between Aboriginal groups and the non-Aboriginal population in Canada. A youthful population is graphically depicted as a pyramid, with the bulk of the weight distributed near the bottom, and decreasing numbers moving towards the top. An aging population resembles a mushroom, with the cap of older population topping a more slender stem of young population. The age distributions of on-reserve Registered Indians in Figure 1-1 form a pyramidal shape, indicating that the majority of this population is young. Inuit experience a similar situation, with an ever greater concentration of youth below ten years of age (Figure 1-2). The shape of the non-Aboriginal population pyramid (as illustrated in Figure 1-3 by the area under the light shaded line) resembles a person with arms outstretched. This shape reflects the large group of people aged 30-54. Table 1-1 shows the percentage of population in each age group by ethnic designation.

Such comparisons reveal similarities or differences that may provide the first step in developing hypotheses about the causation of particular cancers, through the discovery of associations between the incidence of the cancer and the prevalence of the putative causative factor. Examples of important hypotheses that emerged from comparison of population incidence data include dietary fat as a risk factor for colorectal cancer and hepatitis B infection as a risk factor for primary liver cancer. The data presented in this section are extracted from Volume 7 (1997) of Cancer Incidence in Five Continents , published by the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC). The age-standardized incidence rates (ASIRs) presented here, including those from Canada, are from the period 1988 to 1992, and are adjusted to the World Standard Population. For these reasons, the ASIRs for Canada in this section differ considerably from those presented elsewhere in this publication (e.g. in Tables 4 ); the latter are adjusted to the 1991 Canadian population, and include estimates up to 1998.
