1. Data sources: Statistics Canada, Canadian Vital Statistics, Death Database, and Demography Division (population estimates)
2. World Health Organization, International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems, 10th Revision (ICD-10).
3. Potential years of life lost (PYLL) is the number of years of potential life not lived when a person dies "prematurely", defined for this indicator as before age 75. All rates in this table are calculated using the population aged 0 to 74.
4. Counts and rates in this table exclude: deaths of non-residents of Canada; deaths of residents of Canada whose province or territory of residence was unknown; deaths for which age of decedent was unknown.
5. Rates in this table are based on place of residence for indicators derived from death events.
6. Missing data on sex of the deceased were imputed based on death registration number.
7. Rates in this table are based on three consecutive years of death data which were summed and divided by three times the population estimate of the middle year of the three-year period.
8. The reference period associated with these data reflects the mid-point of the three-year period.
9. Confidence intervals for Potential Years of Life Lost were produced using the Spiegelman method. Source: Spiegelman M. "Introduction to Demography", Revised Edition. Cambridge, Massachusetts: Harvard University Press, 1968, page 113, formula 4.29.
10. The 95% confidence interval (CI) illustrates the degree of variability associated with a number or a rate.
11. Wide confidence intervals (CIs) indicate high variability, thus, these numbers or rates should be interpreted and compared with due caution.
12. "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.
13. For complete Canadian coverage, each of the northern territories also represents a health region.
14. The health regions presented in this table are based on boundaries and names in effect as of June 2003.
15. 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.
16. In Ontario, Public health units (PHU) administer health promotion and disease prevention programs, and District health councils (DHC) are advisory, health planning organizations.
17. In Manitoba, Saskatchewan and Alberta, health regions are referred to as Health Authorities (HA) or Regional Health Authorities (RHA).
18. The following standard symbols are used in Statistics Canada publications: (..) for figures not available for a specific reference period, (...) for figures not applicable, and (x) for figures suppressed to meet the confidentiality requirements of the Statistics Act.
19. Some rates were suppressed (F) due to both a very small underlying count plus extremely high variability.
20. CANSIM table number 01020311.
