Building Brighter Futures Together
The 2021 Census counted 1.8 million Indigenous people, accounting for 5.0% of the total population in Canada, up from 4.9% in 2016.
The Indigenous population grew by 9.4% from 2016 to 2021, surpassing the growth of the non-Indigenous population over the same period (+5.3%). However, this growth was not as rapid as in years past. For example, from 2011 to 2016, the Indigenous population grew by 18.9%—more than double the 2021 growth rate.
First Nations YouthBuild Canada (FNYBC) is a National Job Readiness program that champions today’s Not in Employment Education or Training (NEET) opportunity youth who aspire to improve their lives and communities by building the skills and resources to reach their full potential.
