Notes:

The participation and employment rates in the Atlantic provinces and the territories are calculated by taking the average of the
employment rates of each individual territory and weighting each based on the working age population

Scenario 1: The participation rate of Aboriginals is 61.4 per cent in 2001. Projections for the Aboriginal labour force assume
that the Aboriginal participation rate achieves parity with the non-Aboriginal employment rate by 2017 .

Scenario 2: Projections for the Aboriginal labour force assume that the participation rate of the non-Aboriginal population does
not change from the 2001 rate of 66.6 per cent and the Aboriginal participation level for 2017 reaches the midpoint (64.0 per
cent) between the Aboriginal (61.4 per cent) and the non-Aboriginal (66.6 per cent) participation rates for 2001.

Scenario 3: Projections for the Aboriginal labour assume that the participation rate of Aboriginals (61.4 per cent in 2001) and
non-Aboriginals (66.6 per cent in 2001) remain constant.

Scenario 4: Projections assume that the Aboriginals attain the participation rate of the general population projected in Dungan
and Murphy for 2017 (65.6 per cent).
