Abstract
Using data from the 2011 National Household Survey 5-year migration question, we examined the migration of First Nations, Inuit and Metis between communities. Migration into and out of First Nations Reserves, small urban and rural areas, and Census metropolitan areas was estimated, as was migration into and out of Inuit Nunangat. We found that 5-year migration rates decreased in 2011 compared to previous census periods for Status First Nations, Inuit and Metis, but increased for non-Status First Nations. We also found that First Nations communities continued to be net gainers of Status First Nations migration.
