Remarks:

Owner's major payments include payments for electricity, oil, gas, coal, wood or other fuels, water and other municipal services, monthly mortgage payments, property taxes (municipal and school) and, for 1991, 1996, 2001 and 2006 condominium fees.

No data are available on the individual components of this variable; only the total of the main expenses is published.

These data are not available for band housing on Indian reserves, since this variable does not apply to this type of dwelling (see 'Remarks' under the definition Tenure).


Notes:
  1. In 1986, no distinction was made between band housing and other types of tenure on Indian reserves. For this reason, all reserve dwellings were grouped under the 'On reserve' category, and no data were published for these areas.
  2. In 1981, reserve dwellings were included in the universe for this variable.
