Women in Canada : a statistical report / Statistics Canada, Housing, Family and Social Statistics Division.: CS89-503/1990E-PDF

This publication is an updated and expanded version of the original, first released in March, 1985. It was primarily the enthusiastic response of the user community to the first edition and, of course, the continuing importance attached to monitoring the changing roles and social characteristics of Canadian women which led to the decision to update. Major aspects of women's lives are followed once again with respect to family status, education, health and work experience, tracking any further significant changes in these important social and economic areas. Additionally, the situation of women in terms of their housing, and their ability to participate in Canadian life as members of an Aboriginal, immigrant or disabled person minority group are statistically described in this new edition.
