This is a population profile/pyramid displaying the age and sex distributions of British Columbia, Canada, 1996. It reflects a larger percent of the population falling in the middle age ranges between 35-49 years old. Based on this profile and information from the website, I would have to conclude that the fertility rates are decreasing and the death rates are decreasing. It might be interesting to see the current pyramid for this province and if the aging trend has continued.Link to website source:
