Low Fertility

Low Fertility

So ... China is overpopulated, and in Canada we have large numbers of elderly people, but small numbers of young people. People in Canada are waiting to have kids and having fewer than in past years. This could be because of the cost to have a child. Some families can only afford to have one, and if they have more, it could put them in a tiny apartment with each parent working two jobs so they can pay for it. People would rather have more luxuries than children, so they decide to have fewer children.
