Technical paper for the Northern Market Basket Measure of poverty for Yukon and the Northwest Territories / by Nancy Devin, Burton Gustajtis and Sarah McDermott.: CS75-0002/2022-4E-PDF
"In November 2021, Statistics Canada published a discussion paper entitled "Construction of a Northern Market Basket Measure of poverty for Yukon and the Northwest Territories". The paper described a proposed methodology for producing Northern Market Basket Measure (MBM-N) baskets and a disposable income concept for Yukon and the Northwest Territories. It also encouraged readers to provide feedback and comments. Following the release of the paper, there was a review period during which time Statistics Canada and Employment and Social Development Canada (ESDC) engaged with experts, stakeholders, Indigenous organisations, and federal, provincial and territorial officials to help validate the results. This technical paper describes the results of the review period, including small adjustments to the disposable income amounts used in the previous discussion paper, and marks the end of the review period for the MBM-N for Yukon and the Northwest Territories by presenting the latest poverty estimates for reference year 2020"--Introduction, page 4.
