The construction of a life table makes it possible to summarize mortality within a population at a given time (period life table) or within a cohort (cohort life table). Accordingly, life tables meet many statistical needs, particularly in the fields of health, epidemiology, and actuarial science, and facilitate comparisons between regions or cohorts. This document presents the methodology underlying the production of the life tables for Canada, provinces and territories, from reference period 1980/1982 and onward"--Provided by publisher.gccstDeathgccstLife expectancygccstTablesgccstStatistical analysisMartel, Laurent.Statistics Canada.Méthodologie des tables de mortalité pour le Canada, les provinces et les territoires (CaOODSP)9.837802Methods for constructing life tables for Canada, provinces and territories (CaOODSP)9.845973Methods for constructing life tables for Canada, provinces and territories (CaOODSP)9.816562PDF444 KBhttps://publications.gc.ca/collections/collection_2017/statcan/84-538-x/84-538-x2017001-eng.pdf
