The 2016 short form Census questionnaire was sent out to 100% of all households. The 2016 long form Census questionnaire was sent out to 25% of all households.

This Census Profile was produced using data from the long form responses (the 25% sample). These totals will NOT match the totals from the 100% short form Census. It was acquired to serve as the denominator in calculations made with Target Group Profiles, which are also produced using the 25% sample. For example, to calculate the prevalence of low income (LIM-AT) among persons aged 15 to 64, one could take the count of persons aged 15-64 from the Target Group Profile of the low-income population (LIM-AT) and divide it by the count of persons aged 15 to 64 in this Census Profile. This is more appropriate than using the count of persons from the 100% sample Census Profile.
