F too unreliable to be published † reference category * significantly different from reference category (p < 0.05) Note: Emotional or financial abuse is measured over the respondent's lifetime. 'Spouse' refers to legally married and common-law spouses, including same-sex spouses. Responses of 'Don't know' and 'Not stated' are not listed, therefore, the sum of percentages may not add up to 100%. Data from the Northwest Territories, Yukon and Nunavut were collected using a different methodology and are therefore excluded. Source: Statistics Canada, General Social Survey, 2009. |
