In 1991, 2.5 million people were members of the visible minority population, 9.4% of the total population. The visible minority population further increased to 3.2 million in 1996, or 11.2% of the total population.

This table provides data for the 3 largest visible minority groups in each region. You’ll find the number and percentage of visible minority households: in Canada the provinces and territories selected Census Metropolitan Areas (CMAs) It also includes housing statistics on the percentages of immigrant, family and homeowner households for each group.

This new product will present data for specific census topics and population groups according to selected demographic, cultural, and socio-economic characteristics. These detailed 'profile-type' tables expand the analytical depth of basic census information. Special interest profiles include: ethnic groups, Aboriginal peoples, occupation, industry, and place of work.

This table is part of a series of tables that present a portrait of Canada based on the various census topics. The tables range in complexity and levels of geography. Content varies from a simple overview of the country to complex cross-tabulations; the tables may also cover several censuses.

This table contains 173 series, with data for years 1996 - 1996 (not all combinations necessarily have data for all years), and is no longer being released. This table contains data described by the following dimensions (Not all combinations are available): Geography (173 items: Canada; Newfoundland and Labrador; Health and Community Services St. John's Region, Newfoundland and Labrador; Health and Community Services Eastern Region, Newfoundland and Labrador; ...).

This dataset includes six tables which were custom ordered from Statistics Canada. All tables include commuting characteristics (mode of commuting, duration/distance), labour characteristics (employment income groups in 2015, Industry by the North American Industry Classification System 2012), and visible minority groups. The dataset is in Beyond 20/20 (.ivt) format. The Beyond 20/20 browser is required in order to open it.

The global non-response rate (GNR) is an important measure of census data quality. It combines total non-response (households) and partial non-response (questions). A lower GNR indicates a lower risk of non-response bias and, as a result, a lower risk of inaccuracy. The counts and estimates for geographic areas with a GNR equal to or greater than 50% are not published in the standard products. The counts and estimates for these areas have a high risk of non-response bias, and in most cases, should not be released. However, it will be provided upon request. GNR values for POR and POW are different for each geography.
