9.8 million boomers in Canada!

We'd like to hear from you too! In each of the four major "baby boomer" countries, the experiences are different. In Canada, during the two decades following WWII, the birthrate was around 20 births per 1000 population and people were marrying at a fairly young age. But after that it dropped and the average age at marriage went up. People are waiting longer to marry and having fewer children. How will that impact life in Canada over the next few decades? A report in 2003 indicated that it would open up tremendous job opportunities as boomers retired. At the same time, there would be shortages of qualified workers in many fields. We welcome your comments.

Where are all the Baby Boomers?

The term Baby Boomer refers only to those born from 1945 or 46 to 1965 or 66. But did you know that it also refers only to those born in Australia, England, Canada, and the United States?
Today folks from that group live and work all over the world. This is the largest defined group in the world not having solely to do with a specific race or nationality. They present some interesting challenges and opportunities for society in the years ahead.
