The line graph illustrates the fluctuations rate of smoking men and women in Canada from 1950 to 2000.
Overall, the line graph demonstrates significant differences between two smoking groups: men and women per 1000 people in Canada throughout 50 years. Men display pronounced fluctuations with high points at the beginning and end of the year. Women shows relative stability at the beginning of the year, and a gradual increase towards the end of the year.
In 1950, percentage of smoking men allocated about 500 people, which stayed at its peak during 50 years. However, throughout the next 30 years we can observe gradual decline with approximately 470 smoking people by 1970. Additionally we can notice a sharp decrease which was fallen to approximately 300 smoking men by 2000.
On the other hand, the percentage of smoking women was at their lowest peak and accounted only 30 people by 1950. Although we notice a slight, but significant increase by 1970. From 1970 it hits their highest peak during 50 years and leveled off to 200 smoking women in Canada by 2000.
To summarize, the proportion of male smokers decreased over the years and accounted 300 people, while the women smoking rate, conversely, increased over the years and took 200 people, there is a difference of 100 people between them, accounting for 10%.
