"MIXED MARRIAGES IN ONTARIO MANY," Windsor Record. October 30, 1913. Page 1. ---- Toronto, Oct. 30. - That the Ne Temere decree is not working out to the absolute stoppage of mixed marriages is shown in the annual report of the registrar-general of the province issued today.

According to the figures, 820 men and 1,096 women married outside their faith.

The number of marriages totalled 28,445. Nearly two-thirds of those married were between 20 and 30 years of age. The unusual marriages included a man of 25, who married a woman over 70 and three women under 30 marrying men over 70.

The province showed a reduced death rate for the year, lower than in many other countries. On the other hand there is the announcement that one of every ten infants in Ontario dies before attaining the fifth year.

The birth-rate was 22.4 per thousand, the lowest since 1902. In 1911 it was 22.6.

Deaths numbered 32,150, or 12.4 per thousand, or 2 lower than in 1911. Illegitimate births showed an increase of 168. Seventy-two per cent. of these births were in cities.

The battle with the white plague showed good progress. There was a total of 2,250 deaths, but this was a decrease of 103 and a decrease in percentage of 05. About seven per cent. of the deaths in Ontario were from tuberculosis. The heaviest death rate from the disease is between 20 and 30 years of age.

One out of every ten infants die before its fifth year. There were 8,230 of such deaths, while 6,494 died before completing 12 months. Two hundred less died from diarr- hoea than in 1911, the lowest in six years.

Fewer U.S. drivers to Canada despite easing travel restrictions: StatsCan

New data from Statistics Canada suggests car travel from the U.S. to Canada is still at about 50 per cent compared to pre-pandemic levels, while the numbers of tourists coming from elsewhere are almost back to normal. The decline of American visitors is particularly impacting the cities along the border, which rely heavily on U.S. tourism. »»» Subscribe to CBC News to watch more videos:…

CBC is correct about this finding by stats can

But that’s kind of depressing, considering I tried to get my local library to de-acquisition Abigail Shriers hate book and I was unable to. I faced backlash even from some members of the trans community.

But we are not a monolith, and just because we are oppressed doesn’t mean we understand our oppression or how to address it.

Nova Scotia’s trans community is also extremely fractured. this province is very clique-ish and because of that it’s very difficult to build true solidarity amongst queer groups.

Perhaps though, this knowledge offers us an opportunity to dream big. We have the potential to educate each other, build some kind of consensus on our own struggle, an understanding and empathy for the many tactics needed to gain our rights and justice, and build a truly radical trans movement.

I am deeply afraid of what the future for us will look like here in Canada with populism and anti-trans hate on the rise. I worry very deeply about our relative security in comparison to other regions of the world.

“Living Index Rises Again,” The Globe and Mail. November 4, 1941. Page 1. --- Goes Up Eight-tenths of Point During Month ----- NET CLIMB 14.6 --- Ottawa, Nov. 3. (CP) - The Dominion Bureau of Statistics’ cost-of-living index rose from 114.7 to 115.5 during the month ending Oct. 1, the bureau announced today.

This means that the index has increased a total of 14.6 per cent between August, 1939, and October this year.

The index is the basis upon which cost-of-living bonuses under the Dominion Government’s wartime wages policy are calculated.

The bonus payable under the recently announced extension of the wage policy to all industry will be calculated on the increase in the index from Oct. 1 to next February.

For the time since last May, the food index decline fractionally but other group indexes all showed increases. The food index moved down from 123.3 to 123.2 between Sept 2, and Oct. 1, due to small price reductions for dairy products, eggs, and vegetables, while other food groups recorded minor increases.

The rent index advanced from 109.7 to 111.2 for October. Higher prices for coal and coke caused the fuel and light index to rise from 110,9 to 112.1. The clothing index moved upward from 117.4 for September to 119.6 for October, while home furnishings and services advanced from 1115.8 to 117.3
