Rates are calculated per 100,000 Aboriginal female population by geographical area. Refer to the 'Data Sources' section of this report for further information.

Rates are calculated per 100,000 non-Aboriginal female population by geographical area. Refer to the 'Data Sources' section of this report for further information.
Note:
Population projections were not available prior to 2001 for this report; therefore rates could not be calculated for this time period. Population counts were provided by Statistics Canada's Demography Division. The counts for Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal populations are based on Aboriginal identity; for the years 2001 to 2011, they are derived from an interpolation between the censuses of population and the National Household Survey adjusted for net under coverage, partially enumerated reserves, and populations living in collective dwellings; the population counts from 2012 to 2014 are based on custom population projections. Refer to the 'Data Source' section of this report for further information.
