Search help

Indigenous population profiles are available for over 5,500 standard census geographies (i.e., Canada, provinces, territories, census divisions, census metropolitan areas, census agglomerations, and non-suppressed census subdivisions) as well as Indigenous geographies (i.e., Métis settlements, Inuit regions, and First Nation or Indian band and Tribal Council areas). To find a profile for a geography of interest, users can search by place name, postal code or geographic code.

Search by place name

Users may search full or partial names of a geography of interest. Search text is not case sensitive. Results will be found for any geography that contains the search text. For example, a search for "bay" would show results for "Bay Bulls," "Little Bay East" and "Alert Bay."
