Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

According to Statistics Canada, between 1961 and 2011, common-law couples saw the largest increase, from 1.7% of all couples in 1961 to 16.7% in 2011. This is a significant increase compared to married couples, which saw a decrease from 91.6% in 1961 to 67.0% in 2011. Lone-parent families also saw an increase, but not as large as common-law couples. Same-sex couples were not recognized by Statistics Canada until 2001 and therefore cannot be accurately compared over the entire time period.
