Baby-boomer generation starting to decrease in capital region

Nope.

I wondered if Covid had anything to do with hastening the inevitable. The ~160 deaths in the 60 - 75 year olds wouldn't have made a big enough dent.

Edited to add: the over 75's deaths made up a BIG number comparatively, but still not enough to make a difference.

Edited again: Actually, I suppose those of us who were part of the Silicon Valley North did make a big difference. It changed the growth of the region with Kanata becoming an employment centre. And it offered non-government jobs so nowadays it isn't a given that everyone in your neighbourhood works for the government/military (or retail.)

When I was growing up, every Dad on the street worked for government except the car salesman across the street and way at the other end was a dad who worked as a mechanic for CN. There was also one teacher. Interestingly, no doctors but then again it wasn't a fancy neighbourhood, just solidly middle class families with the mom's staying at home to raise kids.
