Note(s):
Single and multiple responses to the Indigenous identity question are used when reporting data for the three Indigenous groups. The Survey Series on First Nations People, Métis and Inuit is based on a probability panel consisting of individuals who agreed to participate in further studies when they responded to the 2022 Indigenous Peoples Survey. As a result of this methodology, it has a low cumulative response rate which increases the risk of bias. All estimates in this chart should therefore be used with caution.
