The latest census data shows that Canada's population is showing its age, but how will that change what our country looks like in the future?
Using projections by demographers, this age pyramid shows what our country's age makeup may look like in fifty years. By using the slider, you can compare the age breakdown of today to past and future years, from 1971 to 2061:
Canada's age pyramid
Population projections by age and sex, 1971-2061
Future population estimates are based on Statistics Canada's medium-growth projections, which assume a national fertility rate of 1.7 children per woman, an immigration rate of 7.5 per thousand and an increasing life expectancy over the projection period.
Figures rounded to thousands.
