Crude birth rates, age-specific fertility rates and total fertility rates (live births), 2000 to most recent year.

In 2023, the crude birth rate in live births per 1,000 inhabitants in Canada was 8.8. Between 1960 and 2023, the figure dropped by 17.9, though the decline followed an uneven course rather than a steady trajectory.

Crude birth rates, age-specific fertility rates and total fertility rates (live births). Data are available beginning from 2000.

Birth rate, crude (per 1,000 people) in Canada was reported at 8.8 % in 2023, according to the World Bank collection of development indicators, compiled from officially recognized sources. Canada - Birth rate, crude - actual values, historical data, forecasts and projections were sourced from the World Bank on November of 2025.

In 2023, the infant mortality rate in deaths per 1,000 live births in Canada stood at 4.4. Between 1960 and 2023, the figure dropped by 23.4, though the decline followed an uneven course rather than a steady trajectory.

Canada CA: Death Rate: Crude: per 1000 People data was reported at 8.100 Ratio in 2023. This records a decrease from the previous number of 8.600 Ratio for 2022. Canada CA: Death Rate: Crude: per 1000 People data is updated yearly, averaging 7.200 Ratio from Dec 1960 (Median) to 2023, with 64 observations. The data reached an all-time high of 8.600 Ratio in 2022 and a record low of 6.900 Ratio in 1992. Canada CA: Death Rate: Crude: per 1000 People data remains active status in CEIC and is reported by World Bank. The data is categorized under Global Database’s Canada – Table CA.World Bank.WDI: Population and Urbanization Statistics. Crude death rate indicates the number of deaths occurring during the year, per 1,000 population estimated at midyear. Subtracting the crude death rate from the crude birth rate provides the rate of natural increase, which is equal to the rate of population change in the absence of migration.;(1) United Nations Population Division.

In Canada, the crude birth rate in 1860 was forty live births per thousand people, meaning that four percent of the population had been born in that year. From this point until the turn of the century, the crude birth rate decreases gradually, to just over thirty births per thousand. Over the next twenty years, this number hovers just below thirty, and thereafter it decreases much more rapidly than before, to 20.7 in 1940, before Canada's baby boom in the 1940s, 50s and 60s, where the birth rate increased to over 27. From the end of the baby boom until the late 1970s the population decreases rapidly again, before the rate of decline then slows. Since 1975, the crude birth rate of Canada will have dropped from 15.6, to it's lowest point in 2020, where it is expected to be just 10.5 births per thousand people.

Contained within the 3rd Edition (1957) of the Atlas of Canada is a map that shows six condensed maps of different demographic statistics. The six measures are: birth rates per 1000 population, death rates per 1000 population, natural increase rates per 1000 population, marriage rates per 1000 population, infant mortality rates per 1000 live births, and number of children at home per family. The data for the maps on this plate were derived from the 1951 Census of Canada. It should be noted that birth rates, death rates and infant mortality rates are exclusive of stillborn births and that infant mortality rates are for infant mortalities under one year of age. The map entitled Children at Home pertains to unmarried sons and daughters, including stepchildren, adopted children, guardianship children and wards 24 years of age and under, living with their parents or guardians.

This scatter chart displays birth rate (per 1,000 people) against fertility rate (births per woman) in Canada. The data is filtered where the date is 2021. The data is about countries per year.

Canada: The number of crude births per 1000 people, per year: Pour cet indicateur, La Banque mondiale fournit des données pour la Canada de 1960 à 2023. La valeur moyenne pour Canada pendant cette période était de 14.22 births per 1000 people avec un minimum de 8.8 births per 1000 people en 2023 et un maximum de 26.7 births per 1000 people en 1960.

In 2024, around 50 children were born per 1,000 white women in the United States. This birth rate was the same among the Black female population. The highest birth rate among various race and ethnic groups in the U.S. was recorded among Native Hawaiian and Pacific Islander mothers, at 58 births per 1,000.

Variables
The data consists of rates, given for each calendar year. The fertility rates are per 1000 ever-married females by single years of age for ages 15 to 49. The data was derived by matching vital statistics on births with data on population exposed to risk, which came in part from population censuses and in part form intercensal estimation.

Please note: this study does not include information on named individuals and would therefore not be useful for personal family history research.
