People with low incomes, Aboriginal peoples, racialized groups and youth are
falling behind on key quality of life indicators, says a report released
today by the Institute of Wellbeing, *How are Canadians Really doing? A
Closer Look at Select Groups.* Women in poor neighbourhoods have 25% higher
odds of having a premature birth; Aboriginal people are almost four times
more likely to live in a crowded dwelling; visible minority or racialized
groups are three times more likely to be poor due to low wages, social
exclusion and racialization in the labour market; and earnings of young
adults relative to other earners have been falling over the past 20 years.
