Quality Life in Canada

Part A:

Population

Birth Rate in Canada: 10.28 births/1,000 population

The birth rate can be calculated in the following manner:

Birth Rate = Number of Births/Average Number of Population×1000‰

Death Rate

7.98 deaths/ 1000 populations

The death rate is calculated in the following way:

Death Rate = Number of deaths in the population during a specified time period/ the number of persons in the population during the specified time period.

The death rate shows the number of people getting died every year in a specific region.

The death rate in Canada is 7.98 deaths/1000 populations which is a normal statistic in comparison to other countries. The lower death statistic gives the concept of good and healthy environment in the country.

Infant Mortality Rate

Infant mortality rate: total: 4.92 deaths/1,000 live births male: 5.26 deaths/1,000 live births female: 4.56 deaths/1,000 live births

Number of infant death / number of life birth) X 1000

The infant mortality rate shows the number of children's death in a country.

The infant mortality rate in Canada is normal that is a good sign for the country

Life Expectancy rate

Life expectancy at birth: total population: 81.38 years male: 78.81 years female: 84.1 years

Life expectancy is defined as the average lifespan between a given age and death. Mathematical formulas exist that can determine individual life expectancies and the life expectancy of a larger population. In the latter case, one can calculate life expectancy from a population's life table.

The life expectancy ratio shows the average life of people in a country.

The life expectancy ratio in Canada is very high among both men and women. It gives the concept of good health standards among people in the country.

Net Immigration Rate

5.65 migrant(s)/1,000 populations

Country comparison to the world: 15

The net immigration rate can be calculated in the following manner:

Immigration - emigration=net migration

Net migration rate is the differentiation between immigrants and emigrants of a region in a phase of time, separated per 1,000 population (considered on midterm population). An optimistic value characterizes more citizens inflowing the state than parting it, while a pessimistic rate denote more public parting than inflowing it.

The net migration rate in Canada is normal as there are not many people living in the country. Canada is a huge country with low population rate therefore; lot of people has been migrated there from other parts of the world.

Poorest Quintiles Shares

9.4%

Rank: 137

Percent change: -12.96 %

Poorest quintile shares are ratio of poverty that shows the variation in poverty in any given time period. Lorenz curve and Gini co-efficient are the tools through which poorest quintiles shares can be calculated. The poorest quintiles give the idea of the poor people in a specific country.

The Canada shows lower poorest quintiles share as it is just 9%. It gives the concept that the country has stable standard of living and not much people are poor.

Literacy rate

Male: 99% Female: 99% Rank: 42

Alternatively, apply the same method using the number of illiterates to derive the illiteracy rate ; or by subtracting literacy ...
