Age attained at the last birthday preceding death.

For "Age at time of death", all age groups except "all ages", the mortality rate represents the age-specific death rate, or the number of deaths in a particular age group during a given year per 1,000 population in the same age group as of July 1 of the same year.

For "Age at time of death, all ages", the mortality rate represents the crude death rate, or the number of deaths during a given year per 1,000 population as of July 1 of the same year.

Starting with the year 2005, the population estimates used for the calculations of the mortality rate are presented in the Appendix 1 of the publication "Deaths" for the respective year (catalogue number 84F0211XWE).

For "Age at time of death, under 1 year", mortality rate calculation uses live births in calendar year instead of the under one year of age population estimate.

For "Age at time of death, 1 to 4 years", mortality rate calculation uses population estimates for 0 to 4-year olds less live births in calendar year.
