Description

In May 2017 Statistics Canada released data from the 2016 census focusing on age and sex characteristics of the Canadian population. This information product from the Office of Statistics and Information analyses the data from an Alberta perspective. Alberta remains the youngest province, largely due to the influx of young, working-age migrants, and slightly higher fertility than the national rate. In relation to the other provinces, Alberta had the smallest proportion of seniors, the highest share in the working ages, and registered the fastest growth of children in the country. It was also the only province where males outnumbered females.
