is necessary to governments for
various purposes but is aLso Useful
to-Pgivate enterprise in.many ways!
Relleeting the ,teed 'for suclik. in-
formation is °the fact that d ques-
tion on. age has been asked in each
gcnsus a. cautida, since -1871, It
;ill" be asked again in the .1951
nsus, to he taken in June this
year.
In Contrast with Most other at-
tributes': of the population, age is
an; ever-changing . characteristic.
Marriage and :parenthood are as-
sociated witn.certain ages; death is
mom frequent during the very early
and •the late (real* of We; school
attendance is •eonfined to the
younger ages ; employment(opportunr
•itie.s are highest for the ages 20 to
45; military service is generally
confined to males from 18 to 45,
with a breakdown. within these
limits in, aceordanee ,, with the
physicai demands of the type of
service; retirement from the stress
and 'strain of active employment is
usual between 65 and 70.
At the tine of - the last census in
1941 the average age of the Can-
adian population was 30.4 years,
This figure compares with 28.6 ten
years earlier, 27.4 for 1921, 26.9
for 1911, 27.1 for 1901,. 25,8 for
1891, and 24.7 for 1881. Thus, ek-
cept in 1911, when the census re-
• flected the effect of the 'heavy im-
-migration in the imMedlately pre-
ceding years, the decennial censuses
have recorded an unbroken upward
trend in the average age of the
population. In the first four de-
cades 'of this century there was" a
rise Of 3.3 years.
Tge ooDortionelat' the population
in .the different age groups have
changed from cenSus to census as
a result of changes in,' birth and
death rates and the -tips and -downs
of-immtgration-and:emigration. Ex-
eept for 1911, the, proportion under
five years' of age has declined from
census to census, from approxim-
ately 141.per cent. In 1881 to nine
per cent. in 1941. This refieets the
decline that has taken place in birth
rates. The proportions of all ,age
groups under 30 weregovver than at
the beginning of the century.

age in the 1951 census- will provide
