Demography looks at: age: how many 65 yrs old compare to 80yrs, life expectancy, canada life expectancy is 82yrs (women is 85, and men 80). Netherland has lowest: the gap b/w men and women are closing before it used to be 7yrs now is 4. Toronto is third: gap b/w rich and poor is not huge bc of good health care system.
