The Ethnic Diversity Survey (EDS) - 2002

The Ethnic Diversity Survey (2002) provides information on how people's
backgrounds affect their participation in Canada's social, economic and
cultural life of Canada. As well, it indicates how Canadians of
different ethnic backgrounds interpret and report their ethnicity.
Topics covered in the survey include ethnic ancestry, ethnic identity,
place of birth, visible minority status, religion, religious
participation, knowledge of languages, family background, family
interaction, social networks, civic participation, interaction with
society, attitudes, satisfaction with life, trust and socio-economic
activities. 

The Ethnic Diversity Survey (EDS) was a post-censal survey which
included about 42,500 people aged 15 and over who were interviewed by
telephone in the 10 provinces between April and August 2002. The target
population did not include persons living in collective dwellings,
persons living on Indian reserves, persons declaring an Aboriginal
origin or identity in the 2001 Census, or persons living in Northern and
remote areas.
