2. 3. This map shows the 2001 data of individuals aged 15-64 years of age. This is because I wanted to see if the relative ratios of people living in each province stays the same as they get older. The maps above show people between 65 and 84 in 2016, and in 2001 they would fit into the 15-64 category, roughly speaking. Unsurprisingly, the relationships between each province are about the same, with no massive shift being seen. The level of geography used is the entirety of Canada, each province being its own census division.
