Question
I have a researcher who is looking for annual data broken down by single years of age and sex for the population centers of Toronto for the years 2011 to 2015 and Calgary for the years 2008 to 2013. He’s tried CANSIM and I’ve looked through various other data sources, but couldn’t find the requested data for these population centers. Would he have to request a custom tabulation?
Answer
“Unfortunately, we do not have single years of age by population centers (or urban areas in 2006 and earlier) in any of our standard product line. Also, we only have data for the 2001, 2006, 2011 and the 2016 Censuses. For annual data you would need to contact the Demography division for the population estimates.
Data for 2001, 2006, 2011 and 2016 can be ordered via the nearest regional office as a custom data tabulation.”

Personal Income by Gender
Question
A researcher is comparing the distribution of total personal income TOTINCP by gender and has found what he believes is an anomaly. For total personal income TOTINCP $150,000 or more, we find 0 women and 4,509 men, unweighted. Does this seem plausible?
Answer
This is not an anomaly at all – in 2001, female income (across Canada) and male income in the Maritimes (and territories?) was capped at $120,000. See http://equinox2.uwo.ca/dbtw-wpd/exec/dbtwpub.dll?QB0=AND&QF0=Uniqueid&QI0=C2001PUMFI+TOTINCP&MR=20&TN=Equinox&DF=UserShowVariableEN&RF=UserShowVariableEN&AC=QBE_QUERY. There are the same counts in SDA@CHASS. However, if you look in the documentation: http://prod.library.utoronto.ca:8090/datalib/codebooks/c/cc01/pumfs/ind/documentation_e_april.pdf and search 'High and Low Income Limits', there are two limits related to incomes. For females (and some males) it is L1 $120,000. That means, the maximum value in the field TOTINCP for females in the pumf is 120,000 and the maximum for some groups of males: 200,000.

Voter Turnout By Gender In Canadian Federal Elections
Question
I'm looking for statistics on voter turnout by gender in Canadian federal elections since 1965.
I've looked at the Elections Canada site, the Canadian Election Study (CES) site. I found some data in the collection of studies from the Royal Commission on Electoral Reform and Party Financing /Commission Royale Sur la Réforme Electorale et le Financement des Parties (1989).
I'm just wondering if there are more resources out there.
Your suggestions would be very much appreciated.
Answer
Statistics Canada doesn't collect these data but you may wish to contact Elections Canada to see if they can provide this information. StatCan disseminates little election-related statistics
(ex. summary tables:http://www40.statcan.gc.ca/l01/ind01/l3_75_79-eng.htm?hili_govt09 and Historical Statistics of Canada: http://www.statcan.gc.ca/pub/11-516-x/sectiony/4057759-eng.htm#2);
Our recent statistics on this topic are from Elections Canada.
