Canada — Population by activity status

Population split into under-15s, employed, unemployed (ILO), retirees and other inactive people; « other inactive » = total population minus the four other groups. France (since 2005): Insee (population, under-15s), OECD (employment and unemployment), COR (retirees of all schemes living in France). United Kingdom, Canada, Italy, United States, Brazil, Mexico: the country's national sources, with the definition of retirees stated on each card. Depending on the source, retirees who work are also counted among the employed.· Population on 1 July and under-15s: Statistics Canada, table 17-10-0005. Employed and unemployed (aged 15 and over): Labour Force Survey, table 14-10-0327, annual averages. Retirees: tax filers and dependants living in Canada who receive Canada or Quebec Pension Plan benefits, table 11-10-0007 — this also includes CPP / QPP disability beneficiaries; seniors receiving only Old Age Security fall into « other inactive ». The survey excludes the territories, reserves and institutions: those people are in « other inactive » too.· Retirees who also work are counted both among the employed and among the retirees: « other inactive » is slightly underestimated by that number.· Licence : Statistics Canada Open Licence
