El envejecimiento de la población es un proceso intrínseco de la transición demográfica, que es el tránsito de regímenes de alta mortalidad y natalidad a otros de niveles bajos y controlados. La disminución de la natalidad y el progresivo aumento de la esperanza de vida de las personas impactan directamente en la composición por edades de la población, al reducir relativamente el número de personas en las edades más jóvenes y engrosar los sectores con edades más avanzadas. [...] El envejecimiento de la población también se aprecia en la proporción que representa el grupo de 60 años y más respecto al total de habitantes de los países. 3, record 2, Spanish, - envejecimiento%20de%20la%20poblaci%C3%B3n

Exhibition of the Canadian Museum of Civilization. "Created by two waves of immigration that ended more than 30 years ago, Canada's Italian community has reached an important moment in its history. While the immigrants who came during the first migratory wave(1880 to the late 1920s) have already disappeared, those who arrived during the second wave(1947 to the late 1960s) are an increasingly ageing population. As their numbers gradually decrease in the coming years, the last living witnesses of the multiple peasant cultures from which most Italian-Canadians descended will disappear as well. The exhibition offers the visitor a new look at these cultures that are too often relegated to the past. " 1, record 6, English, - Presenza%3A%20A%20new%20look%20at%20Italian%2DCanadian%20Heritage

Exposition du Musée canadien des civilisations. «Formée à partir d'une immigration qui a pris fin il y a plus de 30 ans, la communauté italienne du Canada se trouve à un moment important de son histoire. Alors que les immigrants arrivés lors de la première vague migratoire (1880 - fin des années 1920) sont déjà disparus, ceux arrivés lors de la deuxième vague (1947 - fin des années 60) se font de plus en plus vieillissants. Avec leur progressive disparition dans les années à venir, s'effaceront aussi les derniers témoignages vivants des multiples cultures paysannes desquelles les Italo-Canadiens sont majoritairement issus. L'exposition proposera au visiteur un nouveau regard sur ces cultures trop souvent reléguées à un passé révolu.» 1, record 6, French, - Presenza%20%2D%20Nouveau%20regard%20sur%20l%27h%C3%A9ritage%20italo%2Dcanadien
