Canada’s population keeps growing older and is expected to age more rapidly in the years to come, according to the latest census data from Statistics Canada.
The 2021 national census shows seniors over the age of 85 make up one of the country’s fastest growing demographics. The population of that age group is expected to triple over the next 25 years.
The number of people over 85 has more than doubled since the 2001 census.
“Older Canadians are a growing economic and politically influential group,” says Statistics Canada. “They are staying healthier, active, and involved for longer.”
Just How OLD is Old ?
