"Dementia and stroke are common and debilitating chronic conditions in Canada. They pose significant health challenges, especially among individuals aged 65 years and older. The risk of developing these conditions, either separately or together (i.e. comorbidity), increases with age. Some Canadian studies have investigated comorbid dementia and stroke in specific populations; however, there are insufficient data to estimate the prevalence of this comorbidity in the general Canadian population"--Page [1].
