Trends and characteristics of rural and small town Canada / Brian Biggs ; Ray Bollman ; Michael McNames.: CS21-601/15E-PDF
"Rural and Small Town Canada is summarized is terms of various demographic and socioeconomic variables. The study is primarily on a national scale and, for the most part, uses the Statistics Canada definition of "rural" which is based on population level and density thresholds. Hence, the diversity of Rural and Small Town Canada that results from varying degrees of remoteness from large urban centres and different resource bases is largely not addressed. This overview is a necessary precursor to more disaggregated studies which are needed to inform the debate on future policies concerning rural development"--p. 4.
