Classification of Area of residence - On reserve
Status: This standard was replaced by the 'Classification of residence on or off reserve' as of on June 15, 2015.
Statistics Canada works closely with Aboriginal Affairs and Northern Development Canada (formally known as Indian and Northern Affairs Canada) to identify the reserves and the settlements to be included as CSDs. Furthermore, the inclusion of an Indian settlement is dependent upon the agreement of the provincial or territorial authorities.
