Migration through the rural-urban hierarchy:  Canadian patterns.
"The objective in this study has been to produce...a comprehensive inventory and analysis of the transfer of Canada's population between the rural and urban sectors and of the pattern of population exchange between the various levels of the urban hierarchy.  The hierarchical exchanges have been investigated both for Canada's rural-urban system in the aggregate and for the regional subsystems operating within each of the five major geographic divisions of the nation:  the Atlantic Region, Quebec, Ontario, the Prairies, and British Columbia.  Differences in the pattern of movement through the hierarchy have also been explored for age-specific groups of the population, including young adults, the middle-aged, and the elderly."  Data are from the 1976 Canadian census and cover the period 1971-1976. (SUMMARY IN FRE)
