Abstract: 
The Canadian Community Health Survey (CCHS) collects information on the health
of the Canadian population, aged 12 and older and related socio-economic data.
The survey is designed to provide reliable cross-sectional estimates at
provincial, territorial and health region levels.

This public use microdata file (PUMF) contains data collected during Cycle 1.1
of the CCHS, 2000/01. For Cycle 1.1, approximately 130,000 respondents provided
detailed health and socio-economic information. The survey collected
information covering the broad topic areas of health status, determinants of
health and health system utilization.

- Cycle 1.1:  The survey is designed to provide reliable cross-sectional
              estimates at provincial, territorial and health region levels.
