… the new Canadian Index of Wellbeing, or CIW… is a national index that aims to measure and track the quality of life of Canadians… comprised of eight sub-indices: community vitality, democratic engagement, education, environment, healthy populations, leisure and culture, living standards and time use… The overall index will convert the indicators into a single number that, like GDP or the S&P/TSX Composite Index, will move up and down over time, indicating whether the Canadian quality of life is improving or deteriorating.
