Reading newspapers on a website or app was the most popular way to access newspapers in Canada as of November 2023, with 50 to 70 percent accessing papers this way. Boomers were the most likely to read print papers or their online counterparts.

The working-age population can be divided into two broad categories: the early-working age group (15-34) and the later working age group (35-64). The effect of fertility on the composition of these groups is obvious. The later working age group is largely composed of the baby-boomers (those born between 1946 and 1965), while the early working age group is composed of those born during the baby-bust period (1966-1974) and the children of baby-boomers. Thus, despite the fact that baby-boomers are now older, they still remain the largest group in the population. This is evident in the relatively large proportion (42.6%) of the population that belonged to the late working age group in 2006. The corresponding proportion was much smaller (31.3%) just 25 years ago in 1981. As a result of the entry into the working age group of the people born during the baby-bust period and the children of baby-boomers in 2006, only 26.0% of the population belonged to the 15 to 34 age group in 2006, compared with 36.5% in 1981.

BackgroundThe use of complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) is growing. However the factors contributing to changes over time and to birth cohort differences in CAM use are not well understood.SettingWe used data from 10186 participants, who were aged 20–69 years at the first cycle of data collection in the longitudinal component of the Canadian National Population Health Survey (1994/95-2010/11). We examined chiropractic and other practitioner-based CAM use with a focus on five birth cohorts: pre-World War II (born 1925–1934); World War II (born 1935–1944); older baby boomers (born 1945–1954); younger baby boomers (born 1955–1964); and Gen Xers (born 1965–1974). The survey collected data every two years on predisposing (e.g., sex, education), enabling (e.g., income), behavior-related factors (e.g., obesity), need (e.g., chronic conditions), and use of conventional care (primary care and specialists).ResultsThe findings suggest that, at corresponding ages, more recent cohorts reported greater CAM (OR = 25.9, 95% CI: 20.0; 33.6 for Gen Xers vs. pre-World War) and chiropractic use than their predecessors (OR = 2.2, 95% CI: 1.7; 2.8 for Gen Xers vs. pre-World War). There was also a secular trend of increasing CAM use, but not chiropractic use, over time (period effect) across all ages. Factors associated with cohort differences were different for CAM and chiropractic use. Cohort differences in CAM use were partially related to a period effect of increasing CAM use over time across all ages while cohort differences in chiropractic use were related to the higher prevalence of chronic conditions among recent cohorts. The use of conventional care was positively related to greater CAM use (OR = 1.8, 95% CI: 1.6; 2.0) and chiropractic use (OR = 1.2, 95% CI: 1.1; 1.4) but did not contribute to changes over time or to cohort differences in CAM and chiropractic use.ConclusionThe higher CAM use over time and in recent cohorts could reflect how recent generations are approaching their healthcare needs by expanding conventional care to include CAM therapies and practice for treatment and health promotion. The findings also underscore the importance of doctors discussing CAM use with their patients.

According to a survey from *********, the majority of TV streaming viewers in Canada were among adults between 35 and 54 years old, with ** percent of people interviewed being born between 1970 and 1990. While baby boomers still watch traditional cable TV more than streaming content, Gen Z and millennials opt for online video platforms, such as Netflix or Disney+.

In 2008, the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), Woods Hole Coastal and Marine Science Center (WHCMSC), in cooperation with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers conducted a geophysical and sampling survey of the riverbed of the Upper St. Clair River between Port Huron, MI, and Sarnia, Ontario, Canada. The objectives were to define the Quaternary geologic framework of the St. Clair River to evaluate the relationship between morphologic change of the riverbed and underlying stratigraphy. This report presents the geophysical and sample data collected from the St. Clair River, May 29-June 6, 2008 as part of the International Upper Great Lakes Study, a 5-year project funded by the International Joint Commission of the United States and Canada to examine whether physical changes in the St. Clair River are affecting water levels within the upper Great Lakes, to assess regulation plans for outflows from Lake Superior, and to examine the potential effect of climate change on the Great Lakes water levels ( http://www.iugls.org). This document makes available the data that were used in a separate report, U.S. Geological Survey Open-File Report 2009-1137, which detailed the interpretations of the Quaternary geologic framework of the region. This report includes a description of the suite of high-resolution acoustic and sediment-sampling systems that were used to map the morphology, surficial sediment distribution, and underlying geology of the Upper St. Clair River during USGS field activity 2008-016-FA . Video and photographs of the riverbed were also collected and are included in this data release. Future analyses will be focused on substrate erosion and its effects on river-channel morphology and geometry. Ultimately, the International Upper Great Lakes Study will attempt to determine where physical changes in the St. Clair River affect water flow and, subsequently, water levels in the Upper Great Lakes.

According to data gathered in spring 2020, readership of community newspapers in Canada is higher in markets with a population of under 100 thousand, with 50 percent of adults in smaller markets reading community newspapers on a weekly basis compared to 42 percent of the total Canadian population. Gen X adults, Baby Boomers, and pre-Boomers are the most avid readers of community papers, particularly those living in areas of the country with a small population.

In 2021, over ** percent of Canadian consumers had shopped both in-store and on the web in the past 12 months. In other words, Canadians were shopping roughly equal amounts offline, as well as online that year. The gap was largest between boomers, who were still slightly more inclined to shop in physical outlets.

The Lingerie, Swimwear and Bridal Stores market in Canada is experiencing an exciting phase of growth, with consumer enthusiasm clearly fueling momentum. Retailers across the country are capitalizing on demand for specialty, high-quality apparel that stands out in everyday and special-occasion wardrobes. This robust climate has encouraged stores to expand their physical locations and digital reach, as shoppers increasingly seek unique pieces, curated collections and a seamless shopping experience. The focus on stylish design and product differentiation is more pronounced than ever, setting a lively and competitive tone for the sector. Industry revenue has hiked at a CAGR of 9.1% over the past five years and is expected to total $5.9 billion in 2025, while revenue will drop by an estimated 2.0%. However, this expansion has not come without challenges. Growth has been impacted by heightened competition from department stores, discount outlets and e-commerce retailers. E-commerce, in particular, has emerged as a significant threat to traditional brick-and-mortar stores because it offers increased convenience. Consumers can shop from the comfort of their homes, often benefiting from free home delivery services. Despite this intensifying competition, rising per capita disposable income levels have driven consumers to spend more at specialty retailers. At the same time, shifting consumer values are reshaping the market, with sustainability becoming a defining factor. The shift towards sustainable fashion is not a fleeting trend but a growing consumer expectation; as a result, retailers investing in eco-friendly practices and products will likely see long-term benefits. While economic uncertainties could pose a threat, the outlook remains promising as the industry adapts to cater to a more discerning and digitally savvy clientele. Ensuring a balance between in-store experiences and online convenience will be key to thriving in this competitive market. Over the next five years, revenue will inflate at a CAGR of 2.3% to reach an estimated $6.6 billion in 2030.

Data on newspaper reach in Canada in November 2023 revealed that ** percent of Boomers read newspapers each week. This marks a decrease of *** percent of Boomers who reported weekly print or digital newspaper readership in December 2021. Meanwhile, ** percent Millennials interviewed were reading newspapers on a weekly basis, the same as Gen X adults.

It took several years for RV parks and campgrounds showed modest growth over the past five years, with economic conditions and demographic trends largely influencing their trajectory. Revenue growth was influenced by RV sales, rising disposable incomes and shifts in demographic preferences. The flip side of this economic boost was the pandemic's chokehold on international and domestic travel, pushing industry revenues down by 34.5% in 2020. Despite this setback, the industry still managed an annualized growth of 2.9% to $3.3 billion over the five years to 2024, including an 11.5% increase in 2024 alone. A blossoming consumer base, marked by a rise in the Canadian population and shifting preferences, allowed the campsite operators to bounce back. Young consumers principally led this charge, drawn by the affordability and rugged charm of campground accommodations over their luxurious alternatives. So, while the pandemic shook things up in 2020, these consumers' pent-up craving for outdoor adventure fueled the industry's rebound once travel resumed. Economic recovery and heightened travel activities will bolster demand for the industry's offerings. Young couples and families, having discovered a newfound love for camping during COVID-19, are expected to be the prime market demographic in the future. This interest will spur industry growth over the next five years. However, shadows in the form of economic uncertainty and alternative accommodation competitors continue to loom on the industry's horizon. Considering these factors, the industry remains resilient in a challenging environment. Revenue is forecast to increase by 1.3% over the five years to 2029, hitting a will of $3.5 billion. Despite these challenges, Canadian campgrounds and RV parks remain dynamic, driven by consumers' rising tourism dollars during the outlook period.

This statistic presents information on the share of LGBT consumers who used selected social media networks in the past 30 days in Canada as of July 2017, sorted by generation. The data reveals that Facebook was the most popular social media platform among LGBT Millennials, followed by YouTube. The usage of social networks was generally lower among Baby Boomers, particularly Snapchat. Just four percent of Baby Boomers said that they had used Snapchat in the last 30 days, compared to 46 percent of Millennials.

Il est possible de diviser la population d’âge actif en deux groupes : les 15 à 34 ans et les 35 à 64 ans. L’effet de la fécondité sur la composition de ces groupes d’âge est évident. Le dernier groupe d’âge actif est largement composé de baby-boomers (personnes nées entre 1946 et 1965), alors que le premier compte la génération X, dite du « baby-bust » (personnes nées entre 1966 et 1974), ainsi que les enfants des baby-boomers. En dépit du fait que les baby-boomers sont maintenant plus âgés, ils demeurent le groupe démographique le plus important. Cette tendance ressort clairement dans la proportion relativement importante (42,6 %) de la population qui appartenait au dernier groupe d’âge actif en 2006. Cette proportion était beaucoup plus faible (31,3 %) il y a à peine 25 ans, en 1981. Malgré l’arrivée du groupe d’âge actif composé de personnes nées durant la période du « baby-bust », et des enfants des baby-boomers, la proportion des 15 à 34 ans ne représentait que 26,0 % de la population active en 2006, comparativement à 36,5 % en 1981.

In Canada, Generation Z was expected to spend the most for 2024's holiday shopping season: the average Canadian consumer of this generation was projected to spend approximately ***** Canadian dollars. Baby boomers were expected to spend the least this year, at roughly ***** dollars.

According to a survey carried out in April 2023 in Canada, there was a correlation between age and the willingness to pay more for a product due to its lower climate impact. Among Boomers, those older than 65, only 16 percent expressed this willingness, while among Gen Z, those from 18 to 24 years old, 46 percent were inclined to pay more for such products.
