The global non-response rate (GNR) is a weighted measure of survey non-response, calculated based on the number of households that did not respond to the survey and the number of questions that respondents left out. The GNR can be used as an indicator of data quality, with lower values indicating more accurate data. Geographies with a GNR of higher than 50% were suppressed by Statistics Canada due to concerns about data accuracy. If a geography has a GNR of 0, it means that there was a response from all households surveyed, not necessarily that the data is representative of all households in the geography.
Figures may not add to total due to random rounding.
a The number of persons per room variable is the number of total rooms in the dwelling divided by the number of people.
b A household is said to be living in suitable conditions if it has enough bedrooms for the size and composition of the household (as calculated by the National Occupancy Standard - NOS).
