The Toronto Seniors Strategy 4
How do we measure ethnicity?
National Household Survey, 2011
Question 17:
• What were the ethnic or cultural origins of
this person's ancestors? An ancestor is
usually more distant than a grandparent.
Note: This data includes only people living in private
households. People living in collective dwellings (e.g. long
term care homes, seniors’ residences, rooming houses,
etc…) are not included in these counts.
