Note of appreciation

Canada owes the success of its statistical system to a long-standing partnership between Statistics Canada, the citizens of Canada, its businesses, governments and other institutions. Accurate and timely statistical information could not be produced without their continued co-operation and goodwill.

Acknowledgements

Statistics Canada wishes to acknowledge the collaborative partnership of the Technical Advisory Group (TAG) for the Aboriginal Children's Survey, who provided invaluable guidance and expertise throughout the development and implementation of the survey. This group was composed of a cross-section of Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal educators, researchers, and other professionals in early childhood development. Special thanks are extended to all TAG members and honoured Elders for their commitment in advocating for a culturally appropriate children's survey and a process that respects First Nations, Métis and Inuit values.
