Artists in Canada’s Provinces, Territories and Metropolitan Areas

"An examination of artists in Canada's provinces, territories and metropolitan areas, based on the 2001 census. This follows the September release of our national study of artists."
  
  
    
Prev Statistics 3 of 5 Next
"This report shows that British Columbia has a much larger proportion of its workforce employed in artistic occupations than the Canadian average (1.13% vs. 0.80%). Ontario has the second-highest percentage of its labour force in arts occupations (0.83%) and has nearly twice as many artists as any other province. Among the territories, Nunavut has a particularly high percentage of its labour force in the nine arts occupations (2.39%).

Artists are concentrated in Canada’s 27 Census Metropolitan Areas (CMAs). Victoria, Vancouver, Toronto, Montreal and Halifax have the highest proportion of their labour force employed in the arts.

Nearly one-half of Canada’s artists (48%) reside in three CMAs: Toronto, Montreal or Vancouver."
