The GTA Demographic Profile depicts demographic trends in the Greater Toronto Area from 1986 to 2006 by using Statistics Canada data from five Census collection periods: 1986, 1991, 1996, 2001, and 2006.
The GTA Demographic Profile was developed to identify emerging consumer groups and provides background to additional Action Items, identified in the GTA Agricultural Action Plan. The Profile also provides the agricultural industry with Statistics Canada Census Data to assist in identifying GTA markets and their geographic location through population, immigration, and economic Census data.
Some of the highlights of the Profile include identification of emerging consumer groups, opportunities for potential markets, commodities farming, and agricultural specialty products for niche markets.
