VITAL STATISTICS REPORT, 1976
INTRODUCTION
This Report is divided into three parts. Part I is an administrative report of the
activities of the Division, covering both registration and statistical functions, in the
year under review. Part II presents summarized serial tables, showing trends over
periods of varying lengths, usually accompanied by rates or percentages. Part III
presents further detailed analysis of the current year's data.
The data on births and deaths in Parts II and III in most cases relate to
residents of the Province and are generally classifiedby piace of residence. In several instances where data by place of occurrence are shown, the table headings make
this clear. As marriages involve the places of residence of two persons, it is the
custom to show marriage data by place of occurrence, a custom which is followed in
this Report.
In connection with cause of death, comparability between years is affected by
major classification changes introduced in 1950 and 1969. In 1950 a major change in
the death clSmgation system took place with the implementation of the Sixth
Revision of the International Statistical Classification of Diseases, Injuries, and
Causes of Death which was designed for classification of both mortality and morbidity.
In 1969 a further major change in classification occurred with the implementa-
; tion of the Eighth Revision. Certain categories such as mental disorders, cardiovasc-
[ ular diseases, perinatal conditions, and syphilis were subject to considerable revi-
| sion. Also certain categories of external cause of accidents were expanded to provide more detail. The code numbers of both the Seventh and Eighth Revisions are
presented in Tables 21a and 21b of Part II.
The tables which show cause of death, viz., Tables 21 (a) and (b), 22-28, 31, 33,
34, 52, 54-59, 73, 74 and the Appendix Table, do not reflect the adjustments resulting from the querying of original cause of death information by the medical coder,
because these adjustments were inadvertently omitted from the computer data from
which the printed tables were produced. Similar discrepancies arising from the same
cause, are reflected in the 1974 and 1975 reports. Readers who are interested in
I obtaining amended totals for specific diagnostic categories should contact the Division of Vital Statistics.
Before 1968, vital statistics data for Indians were presented in terms of racial
I origin only, but it was found that rates calculated on this basis were unreliable
because of the recognized weakness of available population estimates for racial
I Indians. In all tables which present vital statistics rate for Indians, the figures are
^^HH|sented in terms of registered Indians, i.e., Indians by legal status, living on
or off reserves. In the reports for the years 1968 to 1973 data were presented
separately for registered and racial Indians in selected tables of Part III.
The Appendix Table presents the cause of death by sex and age according to
I the detailed list of the International Statistical Classification. Elsewhere in the
I Report, mortality data are generally classified according to the Intermediate List of
the Classification.
In 1971 the 46 census subdivisions were replaced by 29 regional districts as the
I standard geographical divisions of the Province for census and related purposes.
The new divisions first appeared in selected tables of Part III in the 1971 Report,
I and are uniformly adopted in the current Report wherever geographical divisions
1 are presented.

VITAL STATISTICS REPORT, 1976
PART I—REPORT OF THE ACTIVITIES OF THE
DIVISION, 1976
SUMMARY
The Division of Vital Statistics performs two major functions in the Health
Branch. One of these is to administer the Province-wide vital statistics registration
system while the other is to provide a centralized biostatistical service to the Health
Branch, to the Mental Health Services Branch, and to certain voluntary health
agencies.
The Division is required to administer the Vital Statistics Act, the Marriage
Act, and the Change of Name Act and to operate a registry of wills notice under the
Wills Act. These vital statistics registration services are available to the public
through the central office in Victoria and 88 district offices and suboffices located in
the main population centres throughout the Province. These are shown in Table 1
In order to carry out its extensive statistical responsibilities, the Division
employs a staff of trained biostatisticians and statistical clerks located in Victoria
and Vancouver, as well as a Data Processing Section which serves both major
functions of the Division.
REGISTRATION SERVICES
Administration of the Vital Statistics Act
A very substantial part of the Division's responsibilities is connected with the
administration of the Vitai Statistics Act, which governs the registration of births,
I stillbirths, marriages, deaths, adoptions, and divorces, as well as the issuance of
I information and certificates based on registrations filed.
The Division received excellent co-operat^^TOm hospitals in arranging for the
I registration of births by mothers during confinement, and in the submission of
I monthly returns of births in hospital. Very good co-operation was also received
I from physicians, lawvef^lEfflferal directors, ministers of religion, government agen-
| cies, and the general public in maintaining the timeliness and quality of registra-
Revised vital statistics registration fonrislfi-aMMiths, deaths, marriages, and stillbirths were introduced in February 1974. The revisions were based on model forms
I developed over several years by the Vital Statistics Council of Canada.

Registration of Births
The responsibility for the registration of the birth of a child rests with the I
parent. The attending physician is required by law to report the birth within 48 |
hours of the event, although this reporting does not constitute registration. Although 1
birth registrations rose by three per cent in 1976 (see Table 2), births declined 1
marginally (see Table 10).
Legitimations—Under the Legitimation Act, a child born out of wedlock is 1
deemed to have been legitimate from birth once its natural parents have inter- s
married. The Vital Statistics Act provides that under such circumstances a new 1
registration may be substituted for the registration originally filed, the new registra-1
tion showing the child to be legitimate. However, satisfactory evidence of paternity 1
must be first provided.
There were 298 births legitimated in 1976, compared with 175 in 1975.
Alteration to given names—Under section 8 of the Vital Statistics Act, a change I
made in a child's given name before the age of 12 years may be entered on the birth ■
registration by means of a notation.
Alterations of given names in 1976 numbered 276, as compared with 19751
figure 247.
Delayed registrations of birth—Special provision is made in the Vital Statisticsm
Act for registration of a birth more than one year after the event. There were 289
delayed registrations of births processed during 1976, compared with 375 in 1975. 1
Fraudulent and improper registrations—The Vital Statistics Act makes provi-il
sion for the cancellation of a registration of birth which has been fraudulently or
improperly obtained.
Registrations cancelled numbered 55 in 1976, as compared with 52 in 1975. Then
majority of these arose from use of a false name on the original registration.
Registration of Deaths
The physician in
Coroner conducting ai
the Medical Certificate of Cause of Death, which forms an important part of the] I
death registration. The responsibility for filing the completed death registration li
with the undertaker in charge of the burial, and the registration must be filed before] I
the necessary burial permit is issued.
Classification of deaths for statistical purposes is made according to the Ii
national Statistical Classification of Diseases, Injuries, and Causes of Death, and H
this classification is based upon the physician's certification. Where there is doubt a;
to the cause to which the physician wishes the death assigned, he is queried through I
the local Medical Health Officer.
As indicated in the Introduction, the Eighth Revision of the I
Classification of Diseases was adopted by this Province in 1969, in common with th| I
other provinces of Canada and a number of other countri
Registration of Stillbirths
The term "birth" where used in the Vital Statistics Act includes stillbirths, bu; H
separate forms are used for stillbirth registration. These forms combine the essentia
features of both birth and death registrations. In the revised Vital Statistics Acta
1962, the definition of a stillbirth reads as follows: "The complete expulsion oj I
extraction from its mother, after at least twenty weeks' pregnancy, of a product o) H
conception in which, after such expulsion or extraction, there is no breathing, beat; IT
VITAL STATISTICS REPORT, 1976 BB 21
I ing of the heart, pulsation of the umbilical cord, or unmistakable movement of
I voluntary muscle."
There were 372 stillbirths registrations filed in 1976.
Registration of Marriages
The responsibility for registering a marriage rests with the person solemnizing
I the event, namely, the officiating clergyman or Marriage Commissioner.
Marriage registers are provided free of charge to clergymen and Marriage Com-
I missioners. These are returned to the Division periodically in order that they may be
I checked against the indexes of registrations filed with the Division. If it is thus
I ascertained that an event has been unrecorded, steps are promptly taken to obtain a
I registration.
Registration of Adoption Orders
Copies of all adoption orders made by the Courts in this Province are for-
I warded to this Division by the Court Registrars, as required by the Vital Statistics
On receipt of an order regarding an adoption by the Division, a marginal
I notation showing the child's adoptive name is made on the original registration. All
I certificates subsequently issued in respect of the registration bear this name. No
■nfonnation regarding the natural parents of the child may be released. This same
I procedure is followed when an adoption order is received from another province or
■ state relating to the adoption of a child born in British Columbia.
I Inspection of the documents filed regarding an adoption is only allowed to
■officials of the Crown in discharge of their official duties, or to a person authorized
by the Provincial Secretary in writing, or to a person authorized by a Judge of the
I Court presiding in Chambers. Thus every effort is made to protect the interest of the
■adopted child and his adoptive parents.
Adoption orders filed with the Division in 1976 numbered 1794, as compared
■with 1,637 in 1975.
Registration of Divorces
The Vital Statistics Act also requires that all divorces and nullities granted in
the Province be registered with the Division. The Division is supplied with a
■certified copy of each decree of dissolution or nullity by the Supreme Court Regis-
There were 9,019 dissolutions of marriage and 18 nullities registered by this
■Division in 1976. The comparable figures for 1975 were 7,247 dissolutions and 2
■nullities.
Administration of the Change of Name Act
I The Change of Name Act provides a means whereby persons may change
Either their given names or their surnames and the names of their minor children
Kpon meeting certain requirements set forth in the Act. The Act expressly forbids
Khanges of name which are not made in accordance with its provisions, but exempts
■Manges of name resulting from marriage, adoption, or legitimation, or changes in
Hie given name of a child made under the Vital Statistics Act and prior to the child's
12th birthday. An amendment passed in March 1972 extended the scope of the Act
by removing certain limitations upon changing the names of children, and provided
that birth and marriage certificates issued after a legal change of name should not
™eveal the person's original name, as previously required.
BB 22 MINISTRY OF HEALTH
MINISTRY OF HEALTH
During 1976, 2,054 change of name applications were granted, compared with ]
1,900 in the previous year. This increase reflects the continuing effects of the March
1972 amendment of the Change of Name Act, and the reduction of the age of
majority in 1970. Many of these applications covered several members in a single j
family, so that in total 2,549 individuals were affected. Thirty per cent of the appli- ]
cations were made by married men, while an additional 30 per cent were made by I
divorced women, 16 per cent by single men, and 14 per cent by single women.
Administration of the Marriage Act
The Marriage Act prescribes the legal requirements which must be observed in
connection with the solemnizing of marriage, the legal qualifications of individualj I
to marry, and the authorization of ministers and clergymen and of Marriage Coml I
missioners to perform the marriage ceremony. Under this Act the Division of Vital
Statistics is required to license ministers and clergymen of established religious
denominations who desire the authority to solemnize marriage. It is also the responl I
VITAL STATISTICS REPORT, 1976 BB 23
1 sibility of the Division to recommend for appointment Issuers of Marriage Licences
1 throughout the Province and to supervise their work. The actual registration of
1 marriages solemnized and the issuance of marriage certificates are governed by the
Vital Statistics Act.
On December 31, 1976, there were 2,854 ministers and clergymen authorized to
1 solemnize marriage. During the year, 370 resident clergymen and ministers were
I licensed, while 240 licences for those residing in the Province were cancelled due to
1 transfer out of the Province or due to death. In addition, 80 temporary licences were
1 issued to nonresident ministers and clergymen who were ministering in the Province
[ for brief periods only, and 82 such licences were cancelled.
Forty orders of remarriage were issued under the Marriage Act in 1976.

Registry of Wills Notice
The Registry of Wills Notice maintained by this Division under the Wills Act
makes it possible for a testator to file with this Division a notice stating that he has
executed a will, and indicating where the will is deposited. The filing of a wills notice
is not mandatory, but provides a convenient means of ensuring that information
which will lead to the discovery of the will should be readily available after death.
Adequate identifying information respecting the testator, such as date and place of
birth, must be included in the wills notice.
In 1946, the first complete year in which notices were filed, there were only 441
notices received. The figures for the last six years show the increasing use of the
service by the public. They are as follows: 1971, 19,295; 1972, 23,525; 1973, 27,223;
1974, 34,570; 1975, 37,295, and 1976, 40,877. Wills notice certifications numbered
12,663 in 1976, compared to 12,531 in 1975.
Microfilm and Photographic Services
All registrations of births, deaths, marriages, and stillbirths, together with
delayed registrations and amended registrations, are microfilmed weekly. The film is
forwarded under contract to Statistics Canada, where it is processed and positive
rolls printed for their own use, after which the negative rolls are returned to this
Division. The positive rolls are used by Statistics Canada in the compilation of
national vital statistics and the national indexes of births, deaths, and marriages
In addition, the following documents are filmed on a continuing basis: Physician's Notices of Birth, wills notices, adoption notices, change of name files, and
various supplementary records which the Division is required to file under Vital
Statistics Act.
Extensive use is also made of the microfilm and photographic unit to provide
photoprints of vital statisTJ^Sfceeistrations and other documents in connection with
the administration of the Acts. In 1976, 47,047 photographic and copy machine
prints were issued free of charge to government agencies, including a small number
MBKHfefor use by this office. In addition, 12,007 photographic prints were issued as
certified copies at a charge of $2 per copy, as prescribed in the Vital Statistics Act.
BIOSTATISTICAL SERVICES
The Division's Research Section, in collaboration with the Mechanical Tabula-
\ tion Section, compiles vital statistics from the registrations of births, deaths, marriages, stillbirths, adoptions, and divorces. Certain of these statistics appear in the
I Annual Report of Vital Statistics. In addition, the Division provides a comprehensive central stSSjcal service to other Divisions of Public Health Programs, to Mental Health Programs, and to certain voluntary agencies subsidized by the Govern-
The Division's main statistical activities during 1976 are outlined below in
Comi
Substantial further progress was made in the major task of computerizing the
I division's entire data processing operation, which was commenced in 1974 by the
Computing and Consulting Services Branch, Department of Transport and Commu-
I ideations. A terminal linked with the central installation was installed in this division in the fall. The operation of the terminal will replace the use of the division's
I obsolescent IBM unit record equipment as rapidly as the necessary computer
I sytems can be designed and programmed.

Health Surveillance Registry
The Health Surveillance Registry (previously the Registry for Handicapped
Children and Adults) received 11,816 reports of disabilities, congenital anomalies,
and genetic disorders during 1976 from numerous sources of ascertainment. From
these, 8,786 new cases were recorded, and 3,030 reports provided additional information concerning cases previously on file. This was a substantial increase in ascertainment over previous years and was due in most part to the co-operation of the
Department of Human Resources in providing for the registration of handicapped
adults through its Health Care Division.
Computer systems and programming of registry records, with the exception of
the Cancer Register, were completed in 1976, an analysis of the case load to year-
end 1974 was developed and reported from statistics and data supplied through use
of computer facilties.
For several years, follow-up information on the condition, activity, and special
needs of register cases has been obtained by means of annual surveys of registered
children aged 7 and 14 years. The results of these surveys provide a basis for
estimating the Province's rehabilitation needs.
Several research papers based on registry data were accepted for publication, i.
Research staff provided the statistical services to registry consultants and also to j
nondepartmental researchers and agencies in connection with health related studies.
During the year the registry's medical and genetic consultants were active in
international committees and symposia on subjects related to the work of the registry. These included conferences on such topics as the epidemiology and etiology of
birth defects, psychological and social implications of developmental disabilities,
comparison of teratogenesis, mutagenesis, and carcinogenesis; the classification and j
taxonomy of syndromes, monitoring systems, and the use of registers in morbidity j
studies.
The Cancer Register is a specialized unit within the framework of the Health
Surveillance Registry. The register receives notifications of live cases of malignant
neoplasms from hospital pathology laboratories, private physicians and the Cancer j
Control Agency, while information on cases of cancer ascertained at death is I
derived mainly from the Division of Vital Statistics registration system.
The Cancer Register provides a definitive source of annual Province-wide sta- I
tistical data on the incidence of malignant neoplasms.
The registry's cancer consultant rendered invaluable assistance in interpreting ]
pathology reports and determining their diagnostic classifications as well as in main- J
taming contact with hospital pathology departments.
Cancer Control
Close collaboration was maintained with the Cancer Control Agency of British I
Columbia, and also with the British Columbia Cancer Society and The University of I
British Columbia's Department of Health Care and Epidemiology.
A statistical report on cancer incidence, prevalence, and mortality in British I
Columbia, 1969 to 1973, was completed with the help of a grant from the Cancer I
Control Agency.
Statistics of the 1974 case load of women screened under the cytology screening |
program of the Cancer Control Agency of British Columbia were analysed.
Infant Morbidity and Mortality
The division continued to be actively involved in the work of the perinatal I
program of British Columbia. Two research officers of the division, one as a member 1
VITAL STATISTICS REPORT, 1976 BB 27
of the Program Executive Committee and one as the consultant, contributed special
reports and sfijBfcal advice to the medical members of the committee.
The division continued to co-operate with the Department of National Health
and Welfare in the maintenance of a National Surveillance System of Congenital
Anomalies. Lists of congenital anomalies ascertained from physician's notice of
births and from death and stillbirth registrations were submitted to Ottawa
throughout the year, and assistance was given in the critical examination of the
resulting data.
Dental Health
Statistical advice and data processing services were provided to the Division of
Dental Health Service. Dental surveys were undertaken in two Greater Victoria
public schools to assess the reliability and validity of the newly revised criteria and
examination techniques for recording dental health.
Mental Health
The division continued to share in the responsibility for processing mental
health statistics. Pending completion of the new information system which is in
process of development, patient records are being processed through the use of
SPSS (Statistical Package for Social Sciences).
Metric Conversion Committee
One of the division's research officers continued to represent community health
programs on the Provincial Metric Conversion Co-ordinating Committee. A metric
conversion committee for community health programs was formed during the year
for the purpose of overseeing and co-ordinating the implementation of metric
conversion as it affects various divisions of the Public Health and Mental Health
Branches.
Development work continued on the computerized record linkage program
lich was recently initiated by the division. The project involves the linkage of
itish Columbia vital and health records into individual and family histories, to
wide data for health research.
Health Program Evaluation
The division's research section became increasingly involved in health program
I evaluation. The evalulation of the parent study group behavioural program in the
I Courtenay area, initiated in 1975, was completed in the fall of this year, and the
results presented in one of the division's special report series.
Evaluation of a smoking education program for Grade VI and VII students
^^fflmken by the South Okanagan Health Unit was initiated, and data collection
was completed before the end of the year. Data collection for the evaluation of the
I family asthma program in Kelowna was also initiated in the spring and will be
completed in 1977. This program is sponsored jointly by the Health Department, the
I B.C. Tuberculosis Christmas Seal Society, and the Kelowna General Hospital.
Tuberculosis Control
The division maintains a register of all known cases of tuberculosis and selected
nontuberculosis chest diseases, as well as files of new active TB cases and contacts
to these cases. The computertization of these files
required for the annual report on tuberculosis wer
the Statistical Package for Social Sciences.
Vital Statistics
Statistics derived from the vital statistics registration system were compiled in
collaboration with Statistics Canada. A substantial part of the resulting tabulations
appears in the relevant Annual Report of Vital Statistics, while some unpublished
data are available on request.
Other Services
undertaking a
Services were provided to the Divisions of Epidemiology, Venereal Disease
Control, Environmental Engineering, Public Health Nursing, Public Health Inspec- j
tion, and to the G. F. Strong Rehabilitation Centre, in the mechanical processing of I
records and statistical consultation.
PART n—TREND TABLES WITH RATES
(By Place of Residence)
PROMINENT FEATURES
The population count for the Province according to the 1976 c
2,466,610. As this figure was somewhat below the expected count, the es
population for the 1972 to 1975 period required some downward revision by Statistics Canada and this in turn necessitated re-calculation of the rates based on the
figures. The result in a number of cases was to increase the rates, as these had been
understated by the use of the higher population figures. The 1976 Census count
showed the population in the province had increased by over 50 percent in the 25
years since 1951.
The crude birth rate per 1,000 population in the province in 1976 was 14.5, a
decline from the rate for the last three years, 14.9. This year's rate was the lowest
recorded in almost forty years. Illegitimate births as a proportion of total births
i continue to increase reaching 12.9 percent this year. For Indians the proportion was
at an all-time high of 63 percent.
The crude marriage rate in 1976 was down to 8.7 per 1,000 population from 9.0
the previous year. This year's rate was the lowest recorded since 1966.
The crude death rate in the province this year was at a record low of 7.6
compared to the 1975 figure of 7.9. The standardized or age adjusted rate was 6.0,
I almost 25 percent below the rate of 7.9 recorded 20 years ago.
For some years the same five causes of death have accounted for over three-
I quarters of the deaths in the province and with very few exceptions, in the same
I order. Heart disease, the leading cause of death, recorded a decline in the mortality
I rate per 100,000 to 253.5 compared to last year's figure of 253.8. This is 17 percent
I below the 1967 figure.
For the fourth year in a row the cancer death rate has increased. In 1976 a rate
I of 158.8 was recorded compared to 157.7 last year.
While the death rate from cerebro-vascu/ar disease declined to 77.6 compared
I to 82.1 in 1975, it appears to have become re-established as the third leading cause
I of death.
For two years there has been a substantial decline in the death rate from
accidents, a rate of 60.2 being recorded in 1976 compared to 76.6 in 1975 and 84.0 in
I 1974.
The suicide mortality rate also recorded a decline, but over a slightly longer
I span of years. In 1976 the rate was down to 16.4, the 1973 rate having been 18.6.
The perinatal rate per 1,000 total births has declined each year since 1972 and
I was down to 18.3 in 1976, the rate being 24.3 in 1971.
A record low was again established for the infant mortality per 1,000 live births
I in 1976. The rate this year was 13.8 compared to 14.4 in 1975.
Adoption orders filed with the Division in 1976 were somewhat higher in
I number than in the previous two years, the number for the year being 1,794. There
I was a sharp increase in the number of these that were illegitimate births.
There was a 25 percent increase in divorces this year, the number of court order
I filed with the Division being 9,037 compared to 7,249 in 1975.
