| 1. Precise reporting period may vary. Shelters were asked to provide information for the 12-month period ending March 31, 2004 or their own 12-month fiscal period. Because the number and type of shelters participating in each cycle of the Transition Home Survey may vary, comparisons of admissions from 2003/04 with results from previous survey cycles are not advisable. | ||||||
| 2. Admissions for shelters in Quebec for 2003/04 are not comparable with admission figures from previous cycles of the survey due to changes in the administrative counting practices of certain shelters in that province. | ||||||
| 3. The Northwest Territories included the territory now known as Nunavut until 1999. Data for 1999/00, 2001/02 and 2003/04 do not include Nunavut. | ||||||
| 4. Prior to 1999/00, the territory now known as Nunavut was part of the Northwest Territories. | ||||||
| Note: As a small number of shelters do not respond to the Transition Home Survey each survey year, these figures represent an underestimate of the number of admissions. | ||||||
