Includes bibliographical references. "Life tables are used to compute life expectancy at birth and at different ages, but they are also used to compute many other indicators: death probabilities, probabilities of survival between two ages, years of life lived and the number of survivors at different ages. 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. gccst Death gccst Life expectancy gccst Tables gccst Statistical analysis Martel, Laurent.
