| Notes: Seven projection scenarios, based on population estimates at July 1, 2009, are available in the publication (91-520-X). Estimates by single years of age from ten different projection scenarios are available in CANSIM (052-0005) and from a CD-ROM (91-520-SCB). This table presents results from the following three projection scenarios: Low growth (scenario L): The low growth scenario combines assumptions of low fertility, low immigration and low growth in life expectancy. Medium growth (scenario M1): The medium growth scenario combines assumptions of fertility and immigration similar to recent years along with moderate growth in life expectancy. High growth (scenario H): The high growth scenario combines assumptions of high fertility, high immigration and high growth in life expectancy. 1. Due to rounding, detail may not add to totals.
