Community: Poverty Profile
Poverty Profile is a regular publication of the Council that is based on survey data from Statistics Canada. It includes detailed information about poverty rates and numbers, depth of poverty, duration of poverty, common sources of income for poor people, income inequality in Canada and poverty and the paid labour market.
For the first time, the National Council of Welfare is releasing the findings of its Poverty Profile 2007 in a series of short, easy-to-read bulletins.
