The City of Winnipeg Diversity Dashboard data conform to Statistics Canada anonymization standards.

For anonymization - when there are fewer than 10 employees who self-declare belonging to an equity group (15 in the case of Persons with Disabilities), the exact percentage of individuals in that category is redacted for privacy and the "Too few to report" column flag is set to "TRUE".

The "Too few to report" column flag is also set to "TRUE" when data was not yet collected (e.g. for 2SLGBTQQIA+ Peoples before 2020).

The City of Winnipeg has updated its terminology through community consultation and is committed to refining it as needed. Because of this, our terminology in this open data set may change.

On our journey towards greater inclusion, the City of Winnipeg understands the importance of language and it will embrace new terminology as it evolves and is recommended and / or determined by the equity groups at the City.
