The City’s overarching commitment to building a more sustainable community for future Edmontonians, and for current Edmontonians in the future, is outlined in Edmonton’s Strategic Plan The Way Ahead. Taking its cue from The Way Ahead’s integration of sustainable thinking with respect to all aspects of analysis and planning, this edition of City Trends provides a blend of articles on the social, environmental and economic features of Edmonton’s population growth and change.

  • The Way We Live Edmonton’s People Plan: The Quality of Life Needs & Priorities of Edmontonians Facing Social & Economic Barriers

    Title: The Way We Live Edmonton’s People Plan: The Quality of Life Needs & Priorities of Edmontonians Facing Social & Economic Barriers
    Collection: Alberta
    Corporate Author: City of Edmonton
    Subject: City of Edmonton – general plan
    Publisher: City of Edmonton
    Place of Publication: Edmonton
    Date of Publication: 2010
    Abstract: The Way We Live: Edmonton’s People Plan was approved by City Council on July 7, 2010. This 10-year strategic plan redefines local government as a caring entity that creates a diverse and inclusive city by connecting people, creating communities where people can age in place and actively nurturing an arts, culture and athletic community. The plan advances The Way Ahead: City of Edmonton’s Strategic Plan 10-year goal of improving Edmonton’s livability and integrates with, complements, and adds to the City of Edmonton’s other long-range strategic plans — The Way We Grow and The Way We Move. The Way We Live: Edmonton’s People Plan acknowledges the municipal government’s role in bringing people together to create a civil, socially sustainable and caring society where people have opportunities to thrive and realize their potential in a safe, attractive city. Edmonton, like other cities, often goes beyond its role as a municipal service provider. As the order of government closest to residents, the City is often asked to actively partner and advocate with other organizations and other orders of government to address issues outside of its scope of responsibility such as housing, health care and education. The Way We Live: Edmonton’s People Plan helps clarify the role the City has in quality of life issues. Throughout the design, development and implementation of people services, the City of Edmonton consults and works with residents and community groups to gain their views.

  • Population Projections for Canada, Provinces, and Territories

    Title: Population Projections for Canada, Provinces, and Territories
    Author(s): Bélanger, Alain, |Martel, Laurent, & Caron-Malenfant, Éric Corporate Author: Statistics Canada
    Subject: Statistics – Canada
    Publisher: Statistics Canada
    Place of Publication: Ottawa
    Date of Publication: 2005
    Abstract: Statistics Canada has published six sets of population projections for Canada, provinces and territories since 1974, with the last report in 2001. The projections issued on a regular basis ensure consistent and comparable method and results at the national and provincial/territorial level. This report contains a range of projections to the year 2031. It also describes the methodology and the assumptions and provides a brief analysis of the results. The projections in this report use the 2005 population estimates for July 1st as their base. They take into account the current demographic trends in all components of population growth. It should be emphasized that these projections are not predictions. Rather, they represent an attempt to establish plausible scenarios based on stated components assumptions, which are subject to varying degrees of uncertainty. As such, they are valuable statistical information for planners, policymakers, and the public at large interested in the future course of demographic change and related issues.
