Aboriginal Peoples Survey 2001: Initial Release - Supporting Tables

The 2001 Aboriginal Peoples Survey (APS) is a post-censal survey of adults and children who reported Aboriginal ancestry, Aboriginal identity, registered Indian status and/or Band membership on the 2001 Census. Approximately 76,000 adults and 41,000 children living in private households in the provinces and territories were selected to participate in the survey. The data were collected between September 2001 and January 2002.

These tables contain data on health, education, residential schools and language for the Aboriginal identity population (aged 15 and older) living off-reserve for Canada and the provinces and territories. Data for specific Aboriginal groups (North American Indian, Métis and Inuit) are also included for some variables.
