3 Information from 2008 from Statistics Canada showed that the mean birth rate for Aboriginal women was 2.6 compared with 1.5 for the Canadian population as a whole. The proportion of the population under 5 years of age was twice that of the general population (9.29% vs. 5.26%)

The birth rate in Mali is greater than Japan’s birth rate and Canada’s birth rate because Mali's birth rate is 18, Canada’s birth rate is 4.9 and Japan’s birth rate is 3.3.

In 2015, the average life expectancy for a First Nation man was 67 – today that has dropped to 60. For First Nations women, it's gone from 73 in 2015 to 66 years in 2021. The life expectancy of a non-First Nations man is 79. For non-First Nations women it is 84.

The life expectancy in Mali is less than Canada and Japan, because Mali’s life expectancy is 0.6, the life expectancy in Canada is 8.6 and Japan’s life expectancy is 17.

We might need these population patterns to keep track of what's happening around these 3 countries.

WHY DO WE CARE?

We might need this information in the future, to keep track of people around the world, like kids, adults, and elder people, and some indigenous people might still follow their indigenous way or might change
