Return to Table of Contents PREVALENCE OF METABOLIC BONE DISEASE IN A CANADIAN POPULATION OF PATIENTS RECEIVING PARENTERAL NUTRITION MP Stapleton , G Kline, N Hershfield University of Calgary, Calgary, Alberta This study describes the prevalence of metabolic bone disease (MBD) and risk factors for MBD in a Canadian population of patients receiving parenteral nutrition (PN). Reports of MBD in American PN populations have reported prevalence ranging from 40%-100%; however, the mechanism of MBD is unknown and the role of other risk factors unclear. Data were collected from 13 patients currently receiving PN through the Calgary Health Region’s PN Clinic who had dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) testing of bone mineral density within the last 2 years. In addition to T scores, the presence or absence of other risk factors (smoking, steroid treatment, post-menopausal status women, anti-epileptics, heparin treatment, hypogonadism, and Crohn’s disease) and duration of PN were determined. The study was descriptive as the sample size available was small. Only 2/13 patients (15%) had normal BMD by DEXA (T 1.5), while 6/13 (46%) were osteoporotic (T

Canadian Population Information was obtained from www.statcan.ca/english/Pgdb/People/Population/demo02.htm From these statistics, we can conclude that most of the provinces have seen slight increases in population, except for Saskatchewan, which has had a decrease in population. As a whole, the Canadian population has been growing steadily.

44. Global Population Distribution Database - Methodology A gridded canadian population dataset for 1991 with a 1/6 latitude and 1/4 longitude grid resolution was obtained from the Canadian National Pollutant Release http://grid2.cr.usgs.gov/globalpop/1-degree/method.php3

Global Population Distribution Database Methodology Phase I. Creation of the Basic Dataset: 1) Compilation of the Global City Population in 1990 3) Distribution of the rural population data The total rural population was obtained by subtracting the global city population in 1990 from the total of national populations for 1990 (Refs. 6 and 7). This total rural population was allocated to grid cells according to the formula: This method is based on the assumption that rural population density is in proportion to the number of cities and towns within each cell. This is generally true since small villages tend to be concentrated around cities and towns. Note the larger the country, or the bigger of the rural population in comparison to the total country population, the less accurate the data will be. Phase II. Refinement of the Dataset: 1) United States Census Data Two 1990 census population datasets for approximately 23,400 USA cities and 3,141 counties (Refs. 8 and 9) were obtained. A USA rural population distribution factor dataset was developed for each county using a method similar to one described above for global rural populations. The population factor assigned to each city is given in Table 1. Table 1: USA rural population distribution factors.

Each Atlantic province, Saskatchewan, the Yukon, Nunavut and the Northwest Territories had more than half of their population living in predominantly rural regions. More than half of the population living in predominantly rural regions lived in rural metro-adjacent regions. In 2001, more than 9 million Canadians lived in predominantly rural regions . This represented 30.4 percent of the population, a decrease of one percent from 1996. Figure 1 shows the slow shift in population structure toward predominantly urban regions and away from predominantly rural regions. A distinguishing factor between different regions of rural Canada is distance from a major city. This note examines three types of predominantly rural regions: rural metro-adjacent regions, rural non-metro-adjacent regions, and rural northern and remote regions In 2001, 15 percent of the total Canadian population lived in rural metro-adjacent regions.

CENSUS AND POLLING INFORMATION ABOUT RELIGION IN CANADA Click Here to Visit our Sponsors. Overview: Like the United States, Canada is one of the most religiously diverse countries in the world. South-eastern Ontario has been called the most religiously diverse region of any country in the world. A major contributor to this trend is the large number of immigrants to Canada who have settled in the Toronto ON area. Some trends: The percentage of Christians is in rapid decline in Canada, dropping at 0.9 percentage points per year. This rate is identical to that of the U.S. Small non-Christian faith groups are increasing in number and popularity. The percentage of Atheists, Agnostics, Humanists, secularists, and persons of no religious adherence is increasing rapidly. Many Canadians identify themselves as adherents of a specific religion, religious group or denomination, but no longer attend services. Importance of religion to Canadians: The Pew Research Center has conducted a series of studies called " The Pew Global Attitudes Project.

NEWLY RELEASED POPULATION FIGURES SHOW STRONG GROWTH IN THE VIETNAMESE POPULATION OF ONTARIO, BRITISH COLUMBIA, AND THE NATION AS A WHOLE By Mark Pfeifer Mark Pfeifer is a Ph.D. Student in Geography at the University of Toronto. He is studying the Vietnamese communities in Toronto and Southern Ontario as part of his Doctoral thesis. Recently released data from the 1996 census of the Canadian population clearly show a significant increase in the Vietnamese ethnic origin population within several cities and across the entire nation. The figures were collected by Statistics Canada and include those individuals who claimed a Vietnamese ethnicity either as their sole reply or as part of a multiple response to the ethnic origin question on the census survey form. The census numbers are estimates based upon a questionnaire given to 20% of the entire Canadian population. It seems plausible to suggest that the strong growth in persons of Vietnamese ethnic origin apparent in the 1996 census figures is the consequence of several factors. These include the impressive number of family sponsorships, secondary migration to certain urban centres, and the significant rate of natural increase (births far exceeding deaths) among the overall Vietnamese population. However, the rather remarkable population expansion indicated in the data could very well be related to the probability that government census officials missed far fewer Vietnamese in 1996 compared to 1991. As the population becomes more established in Canada, Vietnamese individuals are more likely to be aware of the census and capable of understanding and filling out the census survey due to an improved knowledge of English.

Self-reported health status Primary Reserve Force respondents report a health status similar to that of the Canadian population. In most areas of the survey, Primary Reservists more closely resemble the general population. Mental health A significant minority of Reg Force members said they experienced some form of mental distress (nervousness or restlessness) in the month preceding the survey. Lifestyle behaviour Compared to the average Canadian, CF Reg Force and P Res members are more physically active, smoke less, and engage in fewer high-risk activities. With 70% of the Regular Force older than 35, and 60% of Primary Reservists younger than 35, age is probably a major factor in the finding that Primary Reservists drink more alcohol than Reg Force members, who drink at the same frequency as the Canadian population. Action to improve health and well-being While Reg Force members report higher levels of concern about their weight and mental health, they are also very willing to take action and responsibility to improve their own health.

CCJA Part II: DEMOGRAPHICS Population The following demographics analysis portrays the changing composition of Aboriginal people in Canada and provides an illustration of the systemic nature of the barriers they must overcome. The Department of Indian and Northern Affairs Canada states that in 1992, the registered Indian population comprised 1.9% of the total Canadian population. The total registered Aboriginal population has risen from 230,902 in 1967 to 533,461 in 1992, a 13 1% increase. With the reinstatement of status through Bill C-31, the registered Aboriginal population is expected to reach approximately 755,200 in 2005, a 4% increase from 1992 xxv Nearly eight out of ten registered Aboriginal people lived on-reserve in 1967, with this proportion dropping to less than six out of ten in 1992. The high growth rate for the off-reserve population between 1986 and 1989 is attributed largely to the reinstatement of Aboriginal status under Bill C-31 xxvi There is considerable diversity within the First Nations population in terms of history, language, and culture. There are eleven major linguistic groups and more than fifty languages are spoken xxvii . In 1991, the Aboriginal Peoples Survey reported that, for the population aged 15 and over reporting Aboriginal identity in Canada, 139,375 reported speaking an Aboriginal language.
