The migration and mobility patterns of Canada's Aboriginal population / prepared by Stewart Clatworthy.: Z1-1991/1-41-122E-PDF

“This study explores various dimensions of the migration, residential mobility and housing consumption patterns of Canada's Aboriginal population. The study documents the patterns of Aboriginal migration during the 1986-1991 period and provides estimates of net migration volumes and net migration rates for a variety of geographical areas. Separate estimates of migration are provided for the registered Indian, non-status Indian, Metis and Inuit populations. The characteristics of Aboriginal migrants and factors underlying migration decisions are also presented in the study. The study also examines recent patterns of residential mobility among the Aboriginal population and, within the context of selected major urban areas, explores the relationships between residential mobility and housing consumption patterns. It is hoped that the study's results are informative and useful to planners, policy makers and researchers concerned with Aboriginal migration, residential mobility and housing consumption"--Preface, p. iii.
