1. Data source: Statistics Canada, 2001 Census (20% sample)
2. Median household income is the dollar amount that marks the midpoint of a distribution of households ranked by the size of household income.
3. Proportion of income (from all sources, pre-tax, post-transfer) held by households whose incomes fall below the median household income. A proportion of 50% would represent no inequality.
4. "Health regions" are defined by the provincial ministries of health. These are legislated administrative areas in all provinces except Nova Scotia. In Nova Scotia, the Ministry of Health uses statistical "zones" rather than its legislated administrative areas; the zones are aggregations of the nine district health authorities.
5. For complete Canadian coverage, each of the northern territories also represents a health region.
6. The health regions presented in this table are based on boundaries and names in effect as of June 2003.
7. A "peer group" is a grouping of health regions that have similar social and economic characteristics. The nine peer groups are identified by the letters A through I, which are appended to the health region 4-digit code.
8. In Ontario, Public health units (PHU) administer health promotion and disease prevention programs, and District health councils (DHC) are advisory, health planning organizations.
9. In Manitoba, Saskatchewan and Alberta, health regions are referred to as Health Authorities (HA) or Regional Health Authorities (RHA).
10. The following symbols are used in Statistics Canada publications: (..) for figures not available and (...) for figures not appropriate or not applicable.
11. CANSIM table number 01090200.
