Indigenous Peoples Survey, 2022

The 2022 Indigenous Peoples Survey (IPS) is a national survey on the social and economic conditions of First Nations people living off reserve, Métis and Inuit, aged 1 year and over as of April 27, 2022. The objectives of the IPS are to identify the needs of these Indigenous groups and to inform policy and programming activities aimed at improving the well-being of Indigenous peoples. The IPS aims to provide current and relevant data for a variety of stakeholders, including Indigenous organizations, communities, service providers, researchers, governments and the general public. Funding was provided by three federal departments: Crown-Indigenous Relations and Northern Affairs Canada, Indigenous Services Canada, and Employment and Social Development Canada.
