Population Projections

Based on July 1, 1999 Estimates

 

Population projections incorporate assumptions regarding fertility, mortality and migration patterns. These assumptions are reflective of historical patterns, as well as recent trends observed for the Northwest Territories. These estimates will be updated on an annual basis to accomodate the base for the current year as well as any changes in the model assumptions.
