From bad to worse: our infographic reveals Indigenous and non-Indigenous child poverty rates across Canada, based on our study Poverty or Prosperity: Indigenous children in Canada.

The Atlantic and territorial numbers could not be specified as the data sets were too small to be statistically reliable at this level. They are rolled up in the other figures, but couldn’t be broken down for the regional description.

The study uses the After Tax-Low Income Measure (AT -LIM). You can find a detailed explanation of methodology in the full study.
