Reponses of 'don't know', 'refusal' and 'not stated' were included in the calculation of all estimates. 'Not stated' includes 'not stated', 'don't know' and 'refusal'. Based on the population that was not attending school at the time of the survey. Source: Statistics Canada, Aboriginal Peoples Survey, 2006 |
