November 2008
The November 2008 online edition of Canadian Social Trends features two articles, both based on previously released reports.
The first, "Inuit in Canada: Selected findings of the 2006 Census," provides a brief demographic and socioeconomic profile of Inuit, based on data from the 2006 Census. It compares Inuit living in Inuit Nunaat, which refers to the four Inuit regions across the North, to those living outside Inuit Nunaat.
The second, "Selected findings of the Aboriginal Children's Survey, 2006: Family and Community," was adapted from the initial analytical report on the 2006 Aboriginal Children's Survey. This survey provided a statistical portrait of the early development of Aboriginal children under the age of six, and the social and living conditions in which they are learning and growing. This article focuses on the family, community and traditional cultural activities of First Nations children living off reserve, Métis children and Inuit children.
The November 2008 online edition of Canadian Social Trends, no. 86 (11-008-XWE, free) is now available from the Publications module our website.
