Source notes and qualifications
Source research status: draft-partial. Recorded review flag: pending-independent-review.
Categories include hierarchies and aggregate labels; never add parents to their children.
Multiple responses and language knowledge can overlap; these are not mutually exclusive population shares.
Null values and source symbols are preserved; zero is not imputed for suppression.
Published categories may group languages as other, not included elsewhere, or unspecified.
Mother tongue and language most often at home exclude institutional residents; knowledge uses the 25% sample private-household universe.
Source ZIP metadata retains footnotes, data-quality notes, category hierarchy and confidentiality rules. The 2022-09-07 knowledge-of-languages correction is recorded in the source register and official table page; the archived ZIP correction section is empty.
[1] Gender Gender refers to an individual's personal and social identity as a man, woman or non-binary person (a person who is not exclusively a man or a woman). Gender includes the following concepts: gender identity, which refers to the gender that a person feels internally and individually; gender expression, which refers to the way a person presents their gender, regardless of their gender identity, through body language, aesthetic choices or accessories (e.g., clothes, hairstyle and makeup), which may have traditionally been associated with a specific gender. A person's gender may differ from their sex at birth, and from what is indicated on their current identification or legal documents such as their birth certificate, passport or driver's licence. A person's gender may change over time. Some people may not identify with a specific gender.
[2] Given that the non-binary population is small, data aggregation to a two-category gender variable is sometimes necessary to protect the confidentiality of responses provided. In these cases, individuals in the category “non-binary persons” are distributed into the other two gender categories and are denoted by the “+” symbol.
[3] This category includes men and boys, as well as some non-binary persons.
[4] This category includes women and girls, as well as some non-binary persons.
[5] Age 'Age' refers to the age of a person (or subject) of interest at last birthday (or relative to a specified, well-defined reference date).
[6] Mother tongue Mother tongue refers to the first language learned at home in childhood and still understood by the person at the time the data was collected. If the person no longer understands the first language learned, the mother tongue is the second language learned. For a person who learned more than one language at the same time in early childhood, the mother tongue is the language this person spoke most often at home before starting school. The person has more than one mother tongue only if they learned these languages at the same time, and still understands them. For a child who has not yet learned to speak, the mother tongue is the language spoken most often to this child at home. A child who has not yet learned to speak has more than one mother tongue only if these languages are spoken to them equally often so that the child learns these languages at the same time.
[7] For more information on language variables, including information on their classifications, the questions from which they are derived, data quality and their comparability with other sources of data, please refer to the Languages Reference Guide, Census of Population, 2021.
[8] n.i.e. = not included elsewhere n.o.s. = not otherwise specified
[9] Knowledge of official languages Knowledge of official languages refers to whether the person can conduct a conversation in English only, French only, in both or in neither language. For a child who has not yet learned to speak, this includes languages that the child is learning to speak at home.
[10] For more information on language variables, including information on their classifications, the questions from which they are derived, data quality and their comparability with other sources of data, please refer to the Languages Reference Guide, Census of Population, 2021.
[11] Users should be aware that estimates associated with Indigenous languages are more affected than most by the incomplete enumeration of certain reserves and settlements in the Census of Population.

Source notes and qualifications
Source research status: draft-partial. Recorded review flag: pending-independent-review.
Categories include hierarchies and aggregate labels; never add parents to their children.
Multiple responses and language knowledge can overlap; these are not mutually exclusive population shares.
Null values and source symbols are preserved; zero is not imputed for suppression.
Published categories may group languages as other, not included elsewhere, or unspecified.
Mother tongue and language most often at home exclude institutional residents; knowledge uses the 25% sample private-household universe.
Source ZIP metadata retains footnotes, data-quality notes, category hierarchy and confidentiality rules. The 2022-09-07 knowledge-of-languages correction is recorded in the source register and official table page; the archived ZIP correction section is empty.
[1] Gender Gender refers to an individual's personal and social identity as a man, woman or non-binary person (a person who is not exclusively a man or a woman). Gender includes the following concepts: gender identity, which refers to the gender that a person feels internally and individually; gender expression, which refers to the way a person presents their gender, regardless of their gender identity, through body language, aesthetic choices or accessories (e.g., clothes, hairstyle and makeup), which may have traditionally been associated with a specific gender. A person's gender may differ from their sex at birth, and from what is indicated on their current identification or legal documents such as their birth certificate, passport or driver's licence. A person's gender may change over time. Some people may not identify with a specific gender.
[2] Given that the non-binary population is small, data aggregation to a two-category gender variable is sometimes necessary to protect the confidentiality of responses provided. In these cases, individuals in the category “non-binary persons” are distributed into the other two gender categories and are denoted by the “+” symbol.
[3] This category includes men and boys, as well as some non-binary persons.
[4] This category includes women and girls, as well as some non-binary persons.
[5] Age 'Age' refers to the age of a person (or subject) of interest at last birthday (or relative to a specified, well-defined reference date).
[6] Language spoken most often at home Language spoken most often at home refers to the language the person speaks most often at home at the time of data collection. A person can report more than one language as spoken most often at home if the languages are spoken equally often. For a person who lives alone, the language spoken most often at home is the language in which they feel most comfortable. For a child who has not yet learned to speak, this is the language spoken most often to the child at home. Where more than one language is spoken to the child, the language spoken most often at home is the language spoken most often. If more than one language is spoken equally often to the child, then these languages are included here.
[7] For more information on language variables, including information on their classifications, the questions from which they are derived, data quality and their comparability with other sources of data, please refer to the Languages Reference Guide, Census of Population, 2021.
[8] n.i.e. = not included elsewhere n.o.s. = not otherwise specified
[9] First official language spoken First official language spoken refers to the first official language (English or French) spoken by the person.
[10] For more information on language variables, including information on their classifications, the questions from which they are derived, data quality and their comparability with other sources of data, please refer to the Languages Reference Guide, Census of Population, 2021.
[11] Users should be aware that estimates associated with Indigenous languages are more affected than most by the incomplete enumeration of certain reserves and settlements in the Census of Population.

Source notes and qualifications
Source research status: draft-partial. Recorded review flag: pending-independent-review.
Categories include hierarchies and aggregate labels; never add parents to their children.
Multiple responses and language knowledge can overlap; these are not mutually exclusive population shares.
Null values and source symbols are preserved; zero is not imputed for suppression.
Published categories may group languages as other, not included elsewhere, or unspecified.
Mother tongue and language most often at home exclude institutional residents; knowledge uses the 25% sample private-household universe.
Source ZIP metadata retains footnotes, data-quality notes, category hierarchy and confidentiality rules. The 2022-09-07 knowledge-of-languages correction is recorded in the source register and official table page; the archived ZIP correction section is empty.
[1] Age 'Age' refers to the age of a person (or subject) of interest at last birthday (or relative to a specified, well-defined reference date).
[2] Gender Gender refers to an individual's personal and social identity as a man, woman or non-binary person (a person who is not exclusively a man or a woman). Gender includes the following concepts: gender identity, which refers to the gender that a person feels internally and individually; gender expression, which refers to the way a person presents their gender, regardless of their gender identity, through body language, aesthetic choices or accessories (e.g., clothes, hairstyle and makeup), which may have traditionally been associated with a specific gender. A person's gender may differ from their sex at birth, and from what is indicated on their current identification or legal documents such as their birth certificate, passport or driver's licence. A person's gender may change over time. Some people may not identify with a specific gender.
[3] Given that the non-binary population is small, data aggregation to a two-category gender variable is sometimes necessary to protect the confidentiality of responses provided. In these cases, individuals in the category “non-binary persons” are distributed into the other two gender categories and are denoted by the “+” symbol.
[4] This category includes men and boys, as well as some non-binary persons.
[5] This category includes women and girls, as well as some non-binary persons.
[6] Knowledge of official languages refers to whether the person can conduct a conversation in English only, French only, in both or in neither language. For a child who has not yet learned to speak, this includes languages that the child is learning to speak at home. Knowledge of non-official languages refers to whether the person can conduct a conversation in a language other than English or French. For a child who has not yet learned to speak, this includes languages that the child is learning to speak at home. The number of languages that can be reported may vary between surveys, depending on the objectives of the survey.
[7] n.i.e. = not included elsewhere n.o.s. = not otherwise specified
[8] For more information on language variables, including information on their classifications, the questions from which they are derived, data quality and their comparability with other sources of data, please refer to the Languages Reference Guide, Census of Population, 2021.
[9] Knowledge of official languages refers to whether the person can conduct a conversation in English only, French only, in both or in neither language. For a child who has not yet learned to speak, this includes languages that the child is learning to speak at home. Knowledge of non-official languages refers to whether the person can conduct a conversation in a language other than English or French. For a child who has not yet learned to speak, this includes languages that the child is learning at home. The number of languages that can be reported may vary between surveys, depending on the objective of the survey.
[10] The total single and multiple language responses indicates the number of respondents who reported each language, either as their only response, or in combination with another language. Total responses represent the sum of single language responses and multiple language responses received in the census.
[11] For more information on language variables, including information on their classifications, the questions from which they are derived, data quality and their comparability with other sources of data, please refer to the Languages Reference Guide, Census of Population, 2021.
[12] A single language response occurs when a respondent provides one language only.
[13] A multiple language response occurs when a respondent provides two or more languages.
[14] Users should be aware that estimates associated with Indigenous languages are more affected than most by the incomplete enumeration of certain reserves and settlements in the Census of Population.
