(1) Female schooling attainment is significantly better than that of males but
less than 4 out of 10 persons had a complete high school.

General Note: The isolated location of the band provides few employment
opportunities and limited incentives to do post-secondary training. The
females with a university degree will be teachers and registered nurses which
are not seen as professions for males in this community. 90% of males and
81% females have no post-secondary training.

NOTE: Personal income for males is very low and 1/5 of the personal income
of females. This will reflect the fact that social assistance is generally paid
to females.
(1) Average income is total income from all sources divided by the number
of persons reported income.
(2) Average employment earnings only.
(3) Medium income is the most frequently reported income.
(4) Almost one half of population received welfare or other government
payments.

all Aboriginal persons in Sask.
(2) For the total population, females make up 44% and males 56% of the population. The major
difference is in the 45 – 64 age groups where there are almost 3 times as many males as females.
This indicates that a large portion of females in this age group have moved off the reserve.
(3) In the 15 – 24 age groups, females out number males by 9 percentage points or 50%.

1. It is not possible to get statistics for the Métis just for the Nipawin area. In the 2006, the
numbers of Métis are only shown for Cumberland Village (575), Nipawin (150) and Melfort
(55). The Métis statistics are not broken down by any of the census demographics, meaning we
cannot obtain statistics for age distribution, schooling attainment, labour force activities or
earnings and income for any Métis in the project area.

2. For the three communities listed, the total number of Métis is 780. We are estimating
another 310 Métis scattered over the area for a total Métis population for 1,090.

3. There is no data available to suggest that the demographics of Métis in the Nipawin
Region vary significantly from demographic data for all Sask. Métis. Therefore, the provincial
Métis demographics are used in the Tables which follow.

4. The age distribution for Métis indicates the following: the under 15 age group makes up
32% of the Métis population. The under 25 age group accounts for 47% of all Métis.

5. The fertility rate is high but 4 percentage points or 12% lower than for all provincial
Aboriginals.

6. The 25 to 64 age groups account for 51% of the Métis population, compared to 43% for
all Sask. Aboriginals, a difference of 9 percentage points or 21%.

7. 40% of Métis have not completed high school compared to 49% for all Aboriginals, a
difference of 9 percentage points or 22.5%. There is no significant difference on other schooling
categories.

8. 68% of Métis 15+ count themselves as in the labour force compared to 56% for all Sask.
Aboriginals, a difference of 12 percentage points or 21%.

9. Unemployment of these in the labour force is 11% compared to all Sask. Aboriginals of
18% or 7 percentage points or 40% lower.

10. 6 of every 10 Métis adults 15+ worked during 2005 compared to 5 of 10 for all
Aboriginals.

11. Fulltime employment earnings for Métis were $37,680.00 compared to $35,708.00 for all
Aboriginals.

12. Personal income was $15,072.00 for Métis and $13,843.00 for all Aboriginals in Sask.

13. 25% of Métis compared to 49% of all Sask. Aboriginal depended on social assistance
for part of their income in 2005.
