    Technical products: 85-564-X
    Description:

    This objective of this report is to present the status of national data on Aboriginal people who come into contact with the criminal justice system as offenders and victims. The report examines the current and potential collection of an individual's Aboriginal identity through various justice-related surveys at Statistics Canada, the challenges within these surveys to collect these data and provides some insight into the quality of these data. The data and sources are examined within the context of information needs for the justice and social policy sectors, and in relation to the preferred method of measuring Aboriginal Identity at Statistics Canada. Data sources examined include the Incident-based Uniform Crime Reporting Survey, the Homicide Survey, the Integrated Criminal Courts Survey, the Adult Corrections Survey, the Youth Custody and Community Services Survey, the Youth Alternative Measures Survey, the Transition Home Survey, the Victim Services Survey and the General Social Survey on Victimization. Finally, the report briefly describes efforts by other countries to improve justice-related information on their indigenous populations.

Help for sorting results

How are the results ordered?

The Sort by feature provides three options:

  • date – sorts results by release date starting with the most recent.
  • relevance is only needed or beneficial when you use the search box and submit a search query. Results are ordered by a combination of where the search term appears in the content, e.g., if it appears in the title, it likely means the product is more relevant to your search; how up to date or new the content in the product is; how popular the product is; and other factors.
  • title – sorts results alphabetically.

Help for filters and search

How do I use the filters and the search box?
  • You can initiate a search by entering keywords or selecting filters (e.g., under Subject, etc.).
  • Filters can be used together or in any combination. Only 1 filter can be selected at a time, per section. Each time you select a filter, the page reloads.
  • Specified keywords and filters appear as “tags” above the search box after each filter selection or keyword entry. You can deselect any or all the “tags” to refine or clear your search.
  • To start a new search, click on the Clear all button above the search box or deselect each filter.
How do I refine my search?
  • You can enter keywords in the search box.  It is not necessary to use “+” or “,” or “AND”.
  • You can delete some or all of the keywords from your search string.  
  • Quotes around keywords limit the search to a specific phrase. 
    • For example, “labour force survey” will limit results to products containing this phrase.
  • Use “or” between keywords to obtain results that contain one or more search terms.
    • For example, labour or­ force or survey will limit results to products containing any or all of these words. 
How does the search work?
  • Search results are linked to terms ‘tagged’ to subjects, keywords, etc., or included in metadata fields such as title, description.
    • For example, when searching the term ‘Diseases’, all results with the word ‘Diseases’ in the title, description or tagged the subject appear. 
  • The text within an article or publication are not searched.
