| Notes: Six projection scenarios, based on population estimates at July 1,2005, are available in CANSIM and in the publication. An additional seven scenarios are also available on CANSIM. This table presents results from the following three projection scenarios: - Low growth (scenario 1): The low growth scenario combines assumptions of low fertility, low immigration and low growth in life expectancy. - Medium growth (scenario 3): The medium growth scenario combines assumptions of fertility and immigration similar to recent years along with moderate growth in life expectancy. - High growth (scenario 6): 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. Source: Statistics Canada, CANSIM, table (for fee) 052-0004 and Catalogue no. 91-520-X. Last modified: 2008-06-26. | ||||||
