Socio-economic characteristics: a ten year comparison. "With the availability of the 1991 Aboriginal Peoples Survey (APS), the present report attempted to demarcate subsamples of the 1991 population that were roughly comparable with those reporting Aboriginal origins in 1981. As the APS made available for the first time a question on Aboriginal self-identification -- it was the contention of the present report that this item allowed for the establishment of subsamples of the 1991 APS-based population roughly comparable with the 1981 Census numbers. The first part of this report introduced definitions of ethnicity as relied upon in the 1981 and 1991 Censuses -- along with the self-identity concept in the 1991 APS. The second section moved on to systematically consider whether reasonable time series are identifiable, with the Inuit, Métis, and North American Indian populations separately. The last section moves on to examine a series of selected census variables, including labour force participation, unemployment, individual income, occupation/industry, and highest level of schooling"--Executive summary, p. 3. gccst Commissions of inquiry gccst Aboriginal peoples gccst Demographic statistics Bourdeau, Jean-Pierre.
