Supplementary notes

A senior family is a couple family where at least one of the partners is 55 years of age or over, or a lone-parent family where the parent is 55 years of age or over.

Families are comprised of: 1) couples (married or common-law, including same-sex couples) living in the same dwelling with or without children, and 2) single parents (male or female) living with one or more children. Persons who are not matched to a family become persons not in census families. They may be living alone, with a family to whom they are related, with a family to whom they are unrelated or with other persons not in census families. Beginning in 2001, same-sex couples reporting as couples are counted as couple families. Adapted from Statistics Canada, statcan.gc.ca, 2000 to 2020.
