The border between Canada and the U.S. is the longest undefended international boundary between two countries in the world at 8,891 kms (5,525 miles), which includes the Alaskan border of 2,475 kms (1,538 miles). Canada is divided into ten provinces and three territories: Newfoundland and Labrador (NL) Ontario (ON) Northwest Territories (NT) Nova Scotia (NS) Manitoba (MB) Nunavut (NU) New Brunswick (NB) Saskatchewan (SK) Yukon (YT) Prince Edward Island (PEI) Alberta (AB) Québec (QC) British Columbia (BC) While the capital of Canada is Ottawa, which is located in the province of Ontario and the home town of current Cana- dian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, elected October 19, 2015, the ten provinces and three territories have their own provincial capitals: NL – St. John’s NS – Halifax NB – Fredericton PEI – Charlottetown QC – Québec City ON – Toronto MB – Winnipeg SK – Regina AB – Edmonton BC – Victoria NT – Yellowknife NU – Iqaluit YT – Whitehorse 3 CANADA MUSIC MARKET REPORT Population Canada is the second largest country in the world by land area – almost 9 million square kilometers – with six time zones. For this reason, it has a low population density: 3.9 people per square kilometer, compared to 35.3 people per square kilometer in the United States. According to the 2016 census, 81% of the population lives in urban areas. The increase in the senior population (65+) to 16.9% was the largest since the first census (1871) after Confederation and the first time it has exceeded the num- ber of children (15 and under) at 16.6% though Canada still has a lower share of seniors than any of the G7 countries except the United States. The working age population (15-64) declined from 68.5% (2011) to 66.5% though Canada leads all G7 countries in the number of working age people thanks to consistently high immigration levels which is the good news during a time of a shrinking tax base. According to the 2016 census, approximately 66 per cent of Canada’s population of 35,151,728 – 0.5 per cent of the world’s population – live within 100 kms of the U.S.-Canada border, which for the most part follows the 49th parallel, in an area that represents only four per cent of Canada’s territory. It includes the three major urban centres: Toronto, Montreal and Vancouver, which are home to 35.5 per cent of all Canadians, a combined population of 12.5 million. Toronto is the largest Canadian city (5,928,040) followed by Montreal (4,098, 927), Vancouver (2,463,431), Calgary (1,392,609), Ottawa-Gatineau (1,323,783) and Edmonton (1,321, 426). Population growth was most marked in seven census metropolitan areas including Windsor, St. Catharines-Niagara and Guelph in Ontario; Calgary and Edmonton in Alberta; Regina in Saskatchewan and Victoria in British Columbia. The greatest population growth acceleration was in Windsor at 3.1 per cent from 2011 to 2016 following a 1.3 per cent decline between 2006 and 2011. Cultural Diversity As population growth in Canada is often the result of immigration rather than an increasing birth rate, new citizens soon find that cultural diversity is encouraged. This has given rise to a multitude of ethnic communities across the country where the culture and musical traditions of the “old country” are still celebrated. According to a Statistics Canada projection, by 2031, about 28 per cent of the population will be foreign-born and the number of visible minority groups will double, the majority of which will live in Toronto and Vancouver. 4 CANADA MUSIC MARKET REPORT The most common ethnic origins to which people identified as part of the 2016 census were: Canadian (11.1M, 32.32%); English (6.3M, 18.34%); Scottish (4.8M, 13.93%); French (4.7M, 13.55%); Irish (4.6M, 13.43%); German (3.3M, 9.64%); Chinese (1.8M, 5.13%); Italian (1.6M, 4.61%); First Nations (1.5M, 4.43%); East Indian (1.4M, 3.99%); Ukrainian (1.4M, 3.95%); Dutch –Netherlands (1.1M, 3.23%); Polish (1.1M, 3.21%); Filipino (.837M, 2.43%); British, not included elsewhere (.645M, 1.87%); Russian (.622M, 1.81%); Métis (.600M, 1.74%); Portuguese (.483M, 1.40%); Welsh (.475M, 1.38%); Norwegian (.463M, 1.34%); Spanish (.396M, 1.15%); American (.377M, 1.10%); Swedish (.350M, 1.02%); Hungarian (.348M, 1.01%).

    NIELSEN MUSIC YEAR-END REPORT CANADA 2016 NIELSEN MUSIC YEAR-END REPORT CANADA 2016 Copyright © 2017 The Nielsen Company 1 Welcome to the annual Nielsen Music Year End Report for Canada, providing the definitive 2016 figures and charts for the music industry. And what a year it was! The year had barely begun when we were already saying goodbye to musical heroes gone far too soon. David Bowie, Leonard Cohen, Glenn Frey, Leon Russell, Maurice White, Prince, George Michael ... the list goes on. And yet, despite the sadness of these losses, there is much for the industry to celebrate. Music consumption is at an all-time high. Overall consumption of album sales, song sales and audio on-demand streaming volume is up 5% over 2015, fueled by an incredible 203% increase in on-demand audio streams, enough to offset declines in sales and return a positive year for the business. 2016 also marked the highest vinyl sales total to date. It was an incredible year for Canadian artists, at home and abroad. Eight different Canadian artists had #1 albums in 2016, led by Drake whose album Views was the biggest album of the year in Canada as well as the U.S. The Tragically Hip had two albums reach the top of the chart as well, their latest release and their 2005 best of album, and their emotional farewell concert in August was something we’ll remember for a long time. Justin Bieber, Billy Talent, Céline Dion, Shawn Mendes, Leonard Cohen and The Weeknd also spent time at #1. Break out artist Alessia Cara as well as accomplished superstar Michael Buble also enjoyed successes this year.

    The Ledger DANCE PHILLY’S GOT TALENT On Oct. 6, the Westphal College of Media Arts & Design brought Philadelphians to their feet for an immersive public dance per- formance inside the Barnes Foundation. The all-day spectacle explored the tension between public and private experiences by uniting professional and amateur dancers to perform work by re- nowned modern dance choreographer Boris Charmatz (pictured here leading a warm up). Charmatz is one of the most important figures in modern dance working today and his company has presented major performances at the Museum of Modern Art and the Tate Modern in London, among others. This second annual Philadelphia Museum of Dance project was organized at the Barnes in partnership with Drexel’s dance program.

The saga began in 1982 with the tragedy of his friend and fellow driver Gilles Villeneuve’s death in the Belgian Grand Prix at Zolder and then unfolded as Tambay took Villeneuve’s place in car number 27, achieved race victories and, as the 1983 season developed, fought for the World Championship. Told in 27 chapters, this is a tale not only of Formula 1 in those colourful years but also a rare and revealing account of life insider Maranello in the twilight of the Enzo Ferrari era, supported by magnificent photographs by Paul‐Henri Cahier.
