The Jewish Population of Canada, 1991
The Jewish Population of Canada, 1991 Leo Davids With the release of data from the June 1991 Canadian Census of population, it is now possible to monitor the ongoing evolution of Canadian Jewry. The information available today enables us to look at geographic realities, Le. the residential locations of Canadian Jews, to see where they are currently living, as compared with previous censuses. It is also important to monitor the evolving age structure of the Jewish population in Canada, Le. to look at increases or decreases with regard to the percentage of all Canadian Jews who are children under the age of IS years, comparing that with the seniors' population (65 years and over). Additionally, we shall examine marital status data for the most important CMA's (Census Metropolitan Areas) of Canadian Jewry. One always has to consider the trends, by comparing the percentages as of 1991 with those in earlier years. Examining these data enables us to look, broadly speaking, at the demographic health of the Canadian Jewish population. As the tables before us will indicate, one can gain some sense of the security versus danger of continuing Jewish existence in Canada by looking at the overall development of the Jewish population from census to census, in comparison with the overall population trends in Canada; one certainly has to look at the percentage of children in each city (qr province) to gauge the prospects for Jewish continuity, in various parts of Canada, in coming generations (See the chapter on "The Fertility of Ethnic Groups" and that on "Aging & Ethnicity" in Halli et aI, 1990).

To this end, our analyses focus on explaining the industrial effects on bladder, kidney and prostate cancer. Methods: Data were obtained from a population-based linked dataset, Canadian Census Health and Environment Cohort. Approximately 2.7 million people aged 25 or older who responded to the 1991 long-form Census questionnaire were linked with the Canadian Cancer Registry. Inclusion criteria included diagnosis between June 4, 1991, and December 31, 2010. Cox Proportional Hazards models were used to predict incidences of cancer with the agricultural industry as a reference point. Sex-specific analyses were then carried out. Results: Bladder cancer was diagnosed in 6970 men and 1665 women. The real estate industry was associated with increased risk for both sexes (men: hazard ratio [HR] 1.34; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.12-1.62, p<0.01; women: HR 1.63; 95% CI: 1.12-2.37, p< 0.05). Kidney cancer incidence was 4380 men and 1900 women.

Peters & Tjepkema (2011)
Proceedings of Statistics Canada Symposium 2010 Social Statistics: The Interplay among Censuses, Surveys and Administrative Data 1991-2011 Canadian Census Mortality and Cancer Follow-Up Study Paul A. Peters and Michael Tjepkema1 Abstract Census mortality linkages are proven to be powerful tools for analysing the mortality differences for numerous population groups. In an recently approved record linkage, the 1991 Census of Population, Canadian Mortality Database, and Canadian Cancer Database will be linked in order to examine cancer incidence and causes of death in conjunction with socio-demographic and neighbourhood characteristics. The linkage of the 1991 Census cohort to these databases will allow for the analysis of mortality using the CMDB in conjunction with the extensive information from the 1991 Census of Population long-forms (2B and 2D), the recording of individual mobility over time using postal codes of tax filers from the Tax Summary Files, and the inclusion of important analysis of cancer morbidity via the CCDB. This presentation overviews the previous census mortality linkage, describe the new linkage, outline the linkage process, and present some initial linkage results. Key Words: Census; Health; Mortality; Cancer; Data Linkage. 1. Introduction This paper describes the development of and preliminary results from the linkage of the 1991 Canadian Census 2B (long form) with the Canadian Mortality Database (CMDB), Canadian Cancer Database (CCDB), and annual Tax Summary Files (TSF) (record linkage number 052-2009). This linkage is an expansion and extension of the earlier 1991-2001 Canadian Census Mortality Follow-Up Study (Wilkins et. al., 2008). The linkage of the 1991 Census cohort to these three databases allows for the analysis of mortality using the CMDB in conjunction with the extensive information from the 1991 Census, the recording of individual mobility over time, and the inclusion of important analysis of cancer morbidity.

First People Lost: Determining the State of Status First Nations Mortality in Canada Using Administrative Data
Department Discussion Paper DDP1802 ISSN 1914-2838 FIRST PEOPLE LOST: DETERMINING THE STATE OF STATUS FIRST NATIONS MORTALITY IN CANADA USING ADMINISTRATIVE DATA Randall Akee Department of Public Policy, University of California, Los Angeles Los Angeles, California., United States 90095-1656 & Donna Feir Department of Economics, University of Victoria Victoria, B.C., Canada V8W 2Y2 February 2018 Abstract We present the most comprehensive set of estimates to date for Status First Nations mortality in Canada. We use administrative data from Indigenous and Northern Affairs Canada to establish a set of stylized facts regarding Status First Nations mortality rates from 1974 to 2013. Between 2010 to 2013, the mortality rates of Status First Nations men and boys are highest in nearly all age groups considered with the exception of Status girls between the ages of 10 to 14. On reserve, Status boys between the ages of 15 to 19 have mortality rates nearly four times that in the general population, while Status girls between the ages of 15 to 19 have mortality rates five times that in the general population. We demonstrate substantial regional variation in mortality rates which are correlated with economic factors. We document that there has been no improvement in mortality among Status women and girls living on-reserve in the last 30 years and relative mortality rates for all Status people on-reserve has not changed in 40 years. Mortality rates may be worsening among some age groups.

FEMALE in a FOREST TOWN: the Marginalization of Women in Port- Albernïs Economy
FEMALE IN A FOREST TOWN: The Marginalization of Women in Port- Albernïs Economy BRIAN EGAN AND SUSANNE KLAUSEN he increase in women entering the paid labour force has been one of the most dramatic changes in the British Columbia Teconomy over the past half-century. In 1991, almost 60 per cent of women aged fifteen years or older in the province held paying jobs or were actively seeking paid work - up from 15 per cent in 1941.1 In addition, during the post-Second World War period BC women have increasingly found employment in professional fields previously dominated by men. For example, in 1971 only 10 per cent of physicians and surgeons in the province were female; by 1991 this had increased to 24 per cent. The wage gap between men and women in the province has also decreased. In 1971, women employed full-time earned just 58 per cent of what full-time male workers earned; by 1991, this had narrowed to 65 per cent (Census Canada 1971,1991). Despite these gains, British Columbia's economy remains firmly divided by sex. In particular, the sexual division of occupations is still very marked. While women have made inroads into professional fields that were once the almost exclusive domain of men, these fields make up only a small portion of the labour force. Armstrong and Armstrong (1994,15) have noted that, for Canada as a whole, women are still "overwhelmingly slotted into industries and occupations characterized by low pay, low recognized skill requirements, low productivity, and low prospects for advancement."2 A review of data 1 The figure of 15 per cent represents the percentage of women over fourteen years of age in 1941 who were "wage earners" (i.e., women paid wages, commissions, or piece rate).

A Look Into the Future — Using and Improving International Microdata for Historical Research
21 Using and Improving International Microdata for Historical Research Lisa Y. Dillon Gunnar Thorvaldsen Vast amounts of microdata from many countries are already available for historical population research. Plans to digitize more source material and rescue existing data files suggest that the number of records at our disposal will increase significantly during the next decade. To truly maximize the research potential of these powerful new databases, they must not only be made available, they must also be made compatible—across time and across national borders. Data Harmonizing Projects Several research teams around the world have taken up this challenge of harmonizing international datasets. Under the auspices of the regional economic commissions of the United Nations, several large projects have collected census data for a particular region of the world. CELADE (the Latin American Demographic Center) and PAU (Europe's Population Activities Unit) are two examples. In 1999, the Minnesota Population Center launched an international database project, bringing the technical expertise acquired in harmonizing 150 years of U.S. census data into Dr. Lisa Y.
