Data below is based on the Canadian Census Program, General Social Surveys, and the Canadian Community Health Surveys.

The Health data is from the Canadian Community Health Survey (CCHS) cycles 2000-01, 2005, 2010, 2014, and 2018. Accordingly, data is available for the 1996 - 2000, 2001 - 2005, 2006 - 2010, 2011 - 2015, and 2016 - 2020 time periods. For more information on the study population and methodology, click here.
