Statistics Canada and Manitoba

Statistics Canada and Manitoba: Figures from the survey, released on Wednesday, show that 16.7 per cent of Manitoba's population identified as aboriginal four times the Canadian average of 4.3 per cent when the survey was done in 2011, according to CBC. But that's not necessarily the case within the city of Winnipeg, said Jane Badets, a senior analyst at Statistics Canada and Manitoba continues to have the highest percentage of aboriginal people among Canada's provinces, and it's a growing and youthful segment of the population, according to figures from Statistics Canada's first National Household Survey. Respondents who identified themselves as registered First Nations were in the largest group, followed by M tis. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
