Understanding the predicted evolution of Canada's literacy levels is a matter of understanding the "skills flow" expected to transform literacy levels over time. The skills flow stems from: demographic shifts; immigration trends; younger adults leaving the secondary and post-secondary system and entering the labour market; older workers leaving the labour force through retirement; and skills loss with age.

Afin de comprendre l'évolution prévue des niveaux de littératie au Canada, il faut d’abord comprendre le «flux de compétences» qui transformera vraisemblablement ces derniers au fil du temps. Le flux de compétences évolue en fonction des facteurs suivants : changements démographiques; tendances en matière d’immigration; jeunes adultes qui quittent les études secondaires et postsecondaires pour entrer sur le marché du travail; travailleurs âgés qui sortent de la population active pour partir à la retraite; perte de compétences attribuable au vieillissement.

The key to an effective program of research that would apply a gender analysis to important economic issues over a longer period of time will be to take a fresh look at issues that have long been a concern for women, such as unpaid work, poverty, and inequality in the paid work force, and women's economic autonomy, while at the same time encouraging a thoughtful analysis of emerging trends such as globalization, population aging, and reductions in the role of government.

La clé d’un programme de recherche efficace, qui appliquerait une analyse comparative entre les sexes à d’importantes questions économiques à plus long terme, consistera à jeter un regard neuf sur les enjeux qui préoccupent depuis longtemps les femmes, notamment le travail non rémunéré, la pauvreté, l'inégalité parmi la population active rémunérée et l'autonomie économique des femmes, tout en favorisant une analyse réfléchie des nouvelles tendances comme la mondialisation, le vieillissement de la population et la réduction du rôle du gouvernement.
