Over the past century, Canadian families have been
increasingly characterized by more diverse living
arrangements. Up until the 1960s, families mainly
included a married couple and their biological children.

married-couple families has been declining, while the
proportion of common-law couples, lone-parent families
and stepfamilies has been on the rise.
