Notes :
Percents may not add up to 100 because responses of 'don't know', 'refusal' and 'not stated' were included in the calculation of all estimates and rounding.
Children were identified as 'North American Indian'; however in the ACS analytical article the term "First Nations children" is used throughout the report.
Not stated' includes 'not stated', 'don't know' and 'refusal'.
