Divorces In Canada Increase

OTTAWA (CP) — Divorces granted last year totalled 6,709 against 5.563 in 1961 although petitions from Quebec and New- foundland resi ents were stalled in Parliament, the Do- minion Bureau of Statistics re- ported Saturday.

Additional Ontarlo returns may raise the 1962 total. It said.

On that basis. the 1962 rate. per 100.000 population was 36.1 compared with an even 38 in 1961, lowest in recent years. The all-time peak was 65.4 in 1947. . Ontario and British Columbia accounted for 68 per cent of all‘ 1982 divorces. or 4.571,
