Statscan tracks quality of life indicators too. If the CBC isn't reporting on it, it is no doubt because this is more interesting to their audience. If people are surviving in a given area, one can know by deduction that they are earning enough to survive in that area, so it's not exactly ever going to be newsworthy until people stop surviving. And we definitely do get reports when an area sees its people drop off โ but such an event happens rarely.
