From 2019 to 2022, among Indigenous people aged 18 years and older, 54.3% of Inuit reported having a regular healthcare provider, along with 81.4% of First Nations people living off reserve and 84.5% of Métis. This is compared with 85.7% of the non-Indigenous adult population.

Released today, new data from the Canadian Community Health Survey (CCHS) provide insight into the health status of Indigenous people aged 18 years and older. These data span multiple periods from 2015 to 2022 and aim to enhance understanding of the health disparities experienced by Indigenous communities.
