APPENDIX D: MAPS

This map illustrates the percent of total population that is 65 years and older by Statistics Canada Census Subdivisions for 2016.  The highest percentages tend to be located in rural areas rather than in municipalities across Canada.  Higher percentages appear in central BC, between Regina and Winnipeg, Central Ontario, North of the corridor between Montréal and Québec city, and in much of the Maritime Provinces.
