[1] Per capita, Winnipeg is the Canadian city with the fourth-largest First Nations population (5.5%) and the largest Métis population (6.5%). [1]

Income

The 2011 National Household Survey data showed that Winnipeg's after-tax median household income was $50,537. [62] This was slightly lower than the national average ($54,098), [63] and is in the bottom 10 of lowest median incomes in Canada. [64] A study in 2013 showed that Winnipeg had two of the three poorest postal code areas in all of Canada (R3A and R3B, both located in the inner city) in regards to family income; in fact these are the two poorest that are located in cities (the poorest was a First Nations reserve in the Cape Breton area). [65]

8,610 of Winnipeg's residents (who earn income) make and keep over $100,000 a year, which is 1.7% of the population. This ratio is higher nationally, at 2.6%.

The gender differences in income were less in Winnipeg by about 9% compared to the national medians. The median income for males in Winnipeg is $31,300, whereas for females the median is $23,739. This means a typical male makes about 31.9% more money than a typical female. This ratio is 40.5% nationwide.

Chinese people are the largest visible minority group of Prince Edward Island, comprising 1.3% of the province's population. Almost half of respondents identified their ethnicity as "Canadian." Prince Edward Island is by a strong margin the most Celtic and specifically the most Scottish province in Canada and perhaps the most Scottish place (ethnically) in the world, outside Scotland. 38% of islanders claim Scottish ancestry, but this is an underestimate and it is thought that almost 50% of islanders have Scottish roots. When combined with Irish and Welsh, almost 80% of islanders are of some Celtic stock, albeit most families have resided in PEI for at least two centuries. Few places outside Europe can claim such a homogeneous Celtic ethnic background. The only other jurisdiction in North America with such a high percentage of British Isles heritage is Newfoundland.
