Ontario rates are presented for two different geographic
levels: DHCs are more relevant for health system analysis; and PHUs are
more relevant for health status measures. -- Suppressed due to both small numbers and extremely
high variability (1) Confidence intervals illustrate
the degree of variability associated with the rate. See Technical
Notes.
(2) These rates are created by average of three years
of data (1995, 1996, 1997) over the 1996 population estimates; age-standardized
to the 1991 Canadian population age structure.
