Population

have children at home. In 1986,
there were 4.5 million families
with children."Moreover, four out
of five of these families were the
"traditional" husband-wife-
child(ren) families.
Although lone -parent families
are considerably fewer in numb-
jer than these traditional
families, they have been increas-
ing at a much faster rate. Bet-
ween 1981 and 1986, there was a
20 percent increase in their
numbers. In 1986, they
represented 13 percent of all
families, up from 11 percent in
1981.
While the majority, (80 per-
cent) of lone -parent families
were headed by women, there
has been a slightly more rapid in-
crease in the number of male
lone -parents. Between 1981 and
1986, lone -parent families headed
by men increased by 22 percent,
following a. 31 percent increase
between 1976 and 1981. This com-
pares to increases of 19 percent
during 1981-86 and 27 percent dur-
ing 1976-1981 for lone -parent
families headed by women.
There were 1.3 million
husband -wife families and 175,485
lone -parent families with
children under six years of age in
1986.
Together, these families with
young children made up 22 per-
cent of all families in Canada.
While the growth in the
preschool population has been
slow, a continuing increase in the
participation of young mothers in
the labour force may see the cur-
rent demand for day care'
facilities maintained. Labour
force data from the 1986 Census
will enable trends in the work
patterns of young mothers to be
analyzed further.
More and more Canadians are
living as husband and wife out-
side the bounds of formal mar-
riage. Since 1981, there has been
a 38 percent increase in the
number of reported common-law
unions. In 1986, 8 percent of all
couples, about 487,000, families,
reported that their union was
common-law. In 1981, 6 percent of
all couples, or about 352,000
reported living in such unions.
There were fairly wide regional
variations in the incidence of
such unions. The highest propor-
tions of common-law couples
were to be found in the Yukon (20
percent) and the Northwest Ter-
ritories.( 17
er-
ritories.(17 percent) . Among the
provinces, 13 percent of couples
in Quebec were living common-
law, while in Newfoundland and
Prince Edward Island, less than
5 percent of all couples were not
formally married.
Close to 2.7 million people in
Canada were 65 years of age and
over in 1986. Of these, 91 percent
were living in private households
while 9 percent lived in nursing
homes and other institutions. A
full 25 percent of the elderly liv-
ed alone.
