A backgrounder on poverty in Canada .: Em20-53/1-2016E-PDF
“This document will focus on the groups of Canadians that are more likely to be living in poverty for long periods of time: single people aged 45–64, single parents, recent immigrants (those living in Canada for less than 10 years), people with disabilities and Indigenous people. Child poverty will also be discussed as the share of children living in poverty in Canada is higher than that of other industrialized countries such as Germany, the United Kingdom and France. Annex A summarizes the number and incidence of low-income Canadians according to the Low Income Cut-offs for 2014“--P. 2.
