Notes:
1. Statistics Canada is committed to protect the privacy of all Canadians and the confidentiality of the data they provide to us. As part of this commitment some population counts of geographic areas are adjusted in order to ensure confidentiality. Counts of the total population are rounded to a base of 5 for any dissemination block having a population of less than 15. Population counts for all standard geographic areas above the dissemination block level are derived by summing the adjusted dissemination block counts. The adjustment of dissemination block counts is controlled to ensure that the population counts for dissemination areas will always be within 5 of the actual values. The adjustment has no impact on the population counts of census divisions and large census subdivisions.
2. A separate set of living quarters designed for or converted for human habitation in which a person or group of persons reside or could reside. In addition a private dwelling must have a source of heat or power and must be an enclosed space that provides shelter from the elements as evidenced by complete and enclosed walls and roof and by doors and windows that provide protection from wind rain and snow.
3. A separate set of living quarters which has a private entrance either directly from outside or from a common hall lobby vestibule or stairway leading to the outside and in which a person or a group of persons live permanently.
4. Refers to the age at last birthday before the reference date that is before May 10 2011. Refer to the Census Dictionary for more information.
5. The median age is an age 'x' such that exactly one half of the population is older than 'x' and the other half is younger than 'x'.
6. Refers to the marital status of the person taking into account his/her common-law status. For more information refer to the Census Dictionary: Marital status.
