Notes:

1. Population in private household - unless otherwise specified, all data in census products are for private households only.

2. Comparability with previous Census data sources

When comparing Aboriginal population data from the 2016 Census of Population to previous cycles, several factors should be taken into account: differences in methodology, changes to the wording and format of Aboriginal questions, legislative changes and differences in the list of incompletely enumerated reserves. Along with these factors, some people, for a variety of reasons, report their Aboriginal identity differently from one data collection period to another. Changing attitudes about Aboriginal identity, judicial decisions or anticipated legal changes, the social climate and other factors may influence how people identify themselves. (Statistics Canada, 2017).

The methodology on reserves was comparable between 2006 and 2016. Statistics Canada notes that "population estimates for concepts such as Aboriginal identity and Registered or Treaty Indian status are influenced by numerous factors. Users should be aware that point estimates and changes over time are influenced by a combination of natural growth, changes to coverage and to measurement, and other factors affecting how people self-identify. It is not possible to quantify the impact these changes have in isolation from each other." (Statistics Canada, 2017). For more information on comparability, please see the Aboriginal Peoples Reference Guide, Census of Population, 2016.

Aboriginal Identityi

In 2016, there were 21,955 Aboriginal people in Simcoe County, accounting for 4.7% of the total population in private households. The number of Aboriginal population rose from 12,985 people in 2006 to 21,955 people in 2016.

Since 2006, the Aboriginal population has grown by 69.1% - more than six times the growth rate of the non-Aboriginal population over the same period (+11.7%). According to population projections, the number of Aboriginal people will continue to grow quickly1.

According to Statistics Canada, two main factors have contributed to the growing of Aboriginal population: the first is natural growth, which includes increased life expectancy and relatively high fertility rates; the second factor relates to changes in self-reported identification, which means that more people are newly identifying as Aboriginal on the census2.

The chart below presents the number and percent of the non-Aboriginal and Aboriginal population in private households in Simcoe County in 2016.

Aboriginal Groupii

In 2016, there were 21,955 people living in Simcoe County who identified as Aboriginal people, accounting for 4.7% of the total population in private households. Of the 21,955 Aboriginal population, 46.6% (10,225) were First Nations (North American Indian), 49.6% (10,885) were Métis and 0.6% (140) were Inuk (Inuit), 1.8% (385) reported having multiple Aboriginal groups.

The First Nations population – including both those who are registered or treaty Indians under the Indian Act and those who are not – grew by 65%, from 6,200 people in 2006 to 10,230 people in 2016. The Métis population rose by 70.6%, from 6,380 people in 2006 to 10,885 people in 2016. The Inuk (Inuit) population had the largest increase of any of the groups over the 10-year span, rose from 45 people in 2006 to 145 people in 2016 (+222.2%).


Note: When comparing data on Aboriginal people from 2006 to 2016, several factors should be taken into account. Among these are differences in methodology, changes to the wording and format of Aboriginal questions, legislative changes and differences in the list of incompletely enumerated reserves. Changing attitudes about Aboriginal identity, judicial decisions or anticipated legal changes, the social climate and other factors may influence how people identify themselves. Along with these factors, some people, for a variety of reasons, report their Aboriginal identity differently from one data collection period to another.

The ‘% of Total” refer to the percentage of aboriginal identity in total population in private households by age category, which shows the

percentage of aboriginal identity in a given geographical area by compared to the total population in private households living in this same geographical area.


To ensure confidentiality, the values, including totals are randomly rounded either up or down to a multiple of 5 or 10. As a result, when these data are summed or grouped, the total value may not match the individual values since totals and sub-totals are independently rounded.

According to Statistics Canada, two main factors have contributed to the growing of Aboriginal population: the first is natural growth, which includes increased life expectancy and relatively high fertility rates; the second factor relates to changes in self-reported identification, which means that more people are newly identifying as Aboriginal on the census.


Glossary

i 'Aboriginal identity' refers to whether the person identified with the Aboriginal peoples of Canada. This includes those who are First Nations (North American Indian), Métis or Inuk (Inuit) and/or those who are Registered or Treaty Indians (that is, registered under the Indian Act of Canada), and/or those who have membership in a First Nation or Indian band. Aboriginal peoples of Canada are defined in the Constitution Act, 1982, Section 35 (2) as including the Indian, Inuit and Métis peoples of Canada.

ii 'Aboriginal group' refers to whether the person is First Nations (North American Indian), Métis or Inuk (Inuit). These are the three groups defined as the Aboriginal peoples of Canada in the Constitution Act, 1982, Section 35 (2). A person may be in more than one of these three specific groups.

First Nations (North American Indian) includes Status and non-Status Indians.

iii 'Registered or Treaty Indian status' refers to whether or not a person is a Registered or Treaty Indian. Registered Indians are persons who are registered under the Indian Act of Canada. Treaty Indians are persons who belong to a First Nation or Indian band that signed a treaty with the Crown. Registered or Treaty Indians are sometimes also called Status Indians.

iv 'Aboriginal ancestry' refers to whether a person has ancestry associated with the Aboriginal peoples of Canada, that is, First Nations (North American Indian), Métis, and Inuit. Aboriginal peoples of Canada are defined in the Constitution Act, 1982, Section 35 (2) as including the Indian, Inuit and Métis peoples of Canada. Ancestry refers to the ethnic or cultural origins of the person's ancestors, an ancestor being usually more distant than a grandparent. A person can have more than one ethnic or cultural origin.

Users should be aware that the estimates associated with this variable are more affected than most by the incomplete enumeration of certain Indian reserves and Indian settlements in the Census of Population.

'Private household' refers to a person or group of persons who occupy the same dwelling and do not have a usual place of residence elsewhere in Canada or abroad. The household universe is divided into two sub-universes on the basis of whether the household is occupying a collective dwelling or a private dwelling. The latter is a private household.

For census purposes, households are classified into three groups: private households, collective households and households outside Canada.

Unless otherwise specified, all data in census products are for private households only.
