Canadian Survey on Disability, 2022: Concepts and Methods Guide
Note on the comparability of the data between 2017 and 2022 from the Concept and Methods Guide:

The 2022 Canadian Survey on Disability was designed to be as comparable as possible to the 2017 cycle and is the first time in decades that two consecutive cycles of the CSD or its predecessors have produced a significant amount of comparable data. However, some differences do exist, as explained in this section, and should be considered carefully when making any comparisons. It is also recommended that data users and researchers refer to the 2017-2022 Concordance in Appendix E, which provides a mapping of the variables between the two cycles.
