Overview

Summary

The Survey Series on First Nations People, Métis, and Inuit is a panel of short surveys on First Nations people living off reserve, Métis and Inuit who had previously agreed to participate in follow up surveys. The Survey Series on First Nations People, Métis and Inuit (SSFNPMI) is a new panel series that aims to fill known data gaps identified by Indigenous and federal government partners. The survey series was also developed based on an analysis of indicators that align with the Truth and Reconciliation Calls to Action, the Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls Calls for Justice, as well as the Canadian Indicator Framework for Sustainable Development Goals and the Quality of Life Framework. These short 20-question surveys are administered to a sample of volunteers, with faster collection, processing, analysis and release timelines than traditional surveys. Questionnaire content will cover a variety of social topics. The first survey in the series collected information on Indigenous peoples' experiences with health care, access to different types of health care, discrimination, and prescription medication. The second survey in the series collected information on well-being and the impacts of rising prices and costs. The third survey in the series collected information on emergency preparedness and extreme weather. The sample includes respondents who participated in the 2022 Indigenous Peoples Survey (IPS). Results of the three surveys in the series will be representative of the population of the IPS.
