2012 Aboriginal Peoples Survey

Question

A few years ago DLI received Additional data tables from the 2012 Aboriginal Peoples Survey that support each of the five sections of the study “The Education and Employment Experience of First Nations People Living Off-Reserve, Inuit, Metis: Selected Findings from the 2012 Aboriginal Peoples Survey”.

Is there any chance that we can get similar data tables for the following 2012 APS studies?

· School Mobility and Educational Outcomes of Off-Reserve First Nations Students
· Labour Force Characteristics of the Metis: Findings from the 2012 Aboriginal Peoples Survey
· Inuit Health: Selected Findings from the 2012 Aboriginal Peoples Survey

Answer

I contacted the subject matter division responsible for these and they provided the following response:
“These were available as a supplement/background to that report. Regarding work on the other three reports, no other such ‘supplemental’ tables were produced. Although they may be useful, they would not be available unless they were part of a custom request.”
Subject matter is investigating further and should they become available to the DLI free of charge in future we will be sure to include them in our collection.
