While on the topic of Canadian babies, the World Health Organization (WHO) reports that babies born in Canada in 2013 can be expected to live 82 years on average. In terms of gender, WHO also reports that girls born in Canada during 2013 have an average life expectancy of 84 years, while boys born in Canada during 2013 on average can expect to live 80 years. As these figures reveal, children born in Canada have some of the highest average life expectancies on Earth.
Babies born in Canada tend to live much longer than children born in many other countries for a variety of reasons, including access to free basic healthcare, good nutrition, excellent educational opportunities, and life in one of the most peaceful and prosperous countries in the world.
