“…Regarding entrance of immigrants some demographic profiles like age group, lower fertility, and mortality reductions have significant impact. Loh;George;Denton et al (2001), opined that average age reduces due to immigration. For Li &Wu (2001), slow effect on aging can be observed due to immigration.…”

“… According to Loh and George (2001), based on 1996 Cesus with 1.48 fertility rate, immigration of 225,000 per year, emigration of 66,000 per year, and life expectancy reaching 82, the population will reach upto 37.1 million in 2040.  As per Statistics Canada (2001) projections, with fertility rate of 1.48, immigration of 225,000 peryear, emigration of 66,000 per year, and life expectancy reaching 82, the population reachesa peak of 37.1 million in 2040, finally a slow decline to 36.9 million in 2051.…”

Policies related with immigration are becoming unavoidable matter among policy makers in the context of demographic pressure in Canada. To correct ageing and population decline, which are caused due to the decline of fertility below replacement level, idea of using immigration is growing. Diminishing working age of Canadian population has caused policymakers to fulfill gap between annual immigration flows and workforce hiring in Canada. This paper contributes to this discussion by evaluating the current immigration policy in Canada with it attendant demographic impacts through a replacement migration report as an attempt to solving the declining and ageing Populations in Canada. Population distribution in terms of size, growth and workforce marginal gap excluding socio economic pattern have been captured by this study through the substance of the report. In Canada, demographic reflection does not cover it geographical composition. The paper will be descriptive and qualitative in nature through the use of secondary data sources for analysis. This study will give politicians a leverage to address the foreseeable inverse in the demography of Canada. The study will also avail to Canadian public an analytically sound, well-documented and evidence based information on the subject under study. The paper concludes that replacement migration may not be adequate to solving the demographic strain in Canada. Population ageing and shortage of workforce, geographical distribution, socio economic status related problems haven't been solved still inequality of population distribution problem has been improved to some extent.

“…De telles études de sensibilité ont été menées au Canada. Elles montrent que des variations réalistes en matière de migrations ou de mortalité n'auraient qu'un effet modeste sur la composition par âge de la population, comparativement à des variations en matière de fécondité (Lachapelle, 1990 ;Loh et George, 2007 ;Statistique Canada, 2005et 2010a.…”

“…Il se dégage de ces études un certain consensus : il serait possible de contrer le déclin, en nombre absolu, de la population en âge de travailler à l'aide de niveaux d'immigration qui demeurent réalistes, mais pas de freiner le vieillissement de la population, qui apparaît comme un processus inéluctable, du moins dans les conditions démographiques actuelles (Bélanger, 2009 ;Guillemette et Robson, 2006 ;Loh et George, 2007 ;Mitra, 1992). Par exemple, au Canada, les niveaux d'immigration requis pour maintenir le rapport actuel des personnes en âge de travailler (15 à 64 ans) sur celles âgées de 65 ans et plus deviennent en peu de temps beaucoup plus élevés que les niveaux actuels 1 .…”

Prenant le relais des études qui se sont intéressées au lien entre immigration et vieillissement démographique, cet article vise à isoler, au sein des données canadiennes existantes, les divers aspects de la mécanique démographique qui sous-tendent cette relation : structure par âge de la population immigrante à l’arrivée, vieillissement des immigrants au Canada, fait qu’ils donnent naissance à des enfants au Canada, différences entre immigrants et non-immigrants à l’égard de la fécondité, de la mortalité et de l’émigration. À cette fin, les auteurs ont développé des scénarios de projection qu’ils ont intégrés au modèle de projection par microsimulation Demosim, puis ont analysé au moyen de ceux-ci des indicateurs projetés de la structure par âge de la population, et ce, pour la période de 2006 à 2106. Exploitant la richesse du contenu de ce modèle et son potentiel analytique, ils montrent que les spécificités démographiques des populations immigrantes du Canada affectent bel et bien la structure par âge de la population dans son ensemble, mais par le biais d’effets, les uns vieillissants et les autres rajeunissants, qui se compensent en grande partie.Following studies which focus on the link between immigration and population aging, this article aims to identify within existing Canadian data the various aspects of the demographic mechanisms behind this relationship: the age structure of the immigrant population on arrival, aging of immigrants to Canada, the fact that they have children in Canada, and differences between immigrants and non-immigrants in fertility, mortality and emigration. To this end, the authors have developed projection scenarios which have been integrated into the Demosim microsimulation projection model, and have used these to analyse projected indicators of the age structure of the population for the period 2006 to 2106. Exploiting this model’s rich content and analytical potential, they show that the demographic specificities of Canada’s immigrant populations have real effects on the age structure of the population as a whole, but by way of various effects, some aging, other rejuvenating, which largely compensate for each other

“…One of the most drastic changes will be due to the aging North American population. It is predicted that, by 2020, 16.3% of the US population and 25% of the Canadian population will be 65 years of age or older [ 1 , 2 ]. Fractures have become a leading cause of patient morbidity and mortality in both industrialized and developing countries.…”

BackgroundWith greater technological developments in the care of musculoskeletal patients, we are entering an era of rapid change in our understanding of the pathophysiology of traumatic injury; assessment and treatment of polytrauma and related disorders; and treatment outcomes. In developed countries, it is very likely that we will have algorithms for the approach to many musculoskeletal disorders as we strive for the best approach with which to evaluate treatment success. This debate article is founded on predictions of future health care needs that are solely based on the subjective inputs and opinions of the world's leading orthopedic surgeons.Hence, it functions more as a forum-based rather than a scientific-based presentation. This exposé was designed to stimulate debate about the emerging patients' needs in the future predicted by leading orthopedic surgeons that provide some hint as to the right direction for orthopedic care and outlines the important topics in this area.DiscussionThe authors aim to provide a general overview of orthopedic care in a typical developed country setting. However, the regional diversity of the United States and every other industrialized nation should be considered as a cofactor that may vary to some extent from our vision of improved orthopedic and trauma care of the musculoskeletal patient on an interregional level.In this forum, we will define the current and future barriers in developed countries related to musculoskeletal trauma, total joint arthroplasty, patient safety and injuries related to military conflicts, all problems that will only increase as populations age, become more mobile, and deal with political crisis.SummaryIt is very likely that the future will bring a more biological approach to fracture care with less invasive surgical procedures, flexible implants, and more rapid rehabilitation methods. This international consortium challenges the trauma and implants community to develop outcome registries that are managed through health care offices and to prepare effectively for the many future challenges that lie in store for those who treat musculoskeletal conditions.
