Abstract

Sex differentials in mortality in Canada were studied through analysis of deaths by census tracts in 21 census metropolitan areas. Comparisons of sex differences in cause specific mortality revealed that the excess mortality of males is present in all age groups and at all income levels. In addition there is a clear gradient in sex differentials in mortality by income level. Sex differentials in mortality are much greater in lower income groups. The data are taken from the 1971 census. The results suggest that life-style and socioeconomic factors influence the higher sex differentials in mortality observed in lower income groups.
