Footnote 9

Census income data relate to the calendar year prior to each census year, i.e., to 2000 for the 2001 Census and to 2005 for the 2006 Census. As a result, immigrants who arrived in Canada between January 1, 2006 and May 16, 2006 have zero income and are excluded. Immigrants who arrived in the income reference year (2000 or 2005) may not have a full year of applicable income. For this reason, immigrants arriving in 2000 are excluded from the 1996 to 2000 group for the 2001 Census, and immigrants arriving in 2005 are excluded from the 2001 to 2004 group for the 2006 Census. Both groups are included in the Immigrant subtotal.
