We propose an accessible and repeatable method for calculating rates of institutionalization and homelessness among Status First Nations in Canada by age and gender. We show that this calculation is possible through combining Census and administrative data and could be computed at regular intervals. We estimate extremely high rates of institutionalization and homelessness, especially among young Status men. Averaging over 2001 and 2006, an upper bound estimate of 12% of the Status male population was either institutionalized or homeless. We show that this high rate of institutionalization and homelessness results in a distortion in the male-female gender ratio which may have long-run implications for the continued legal existence of Status First Nations in Canada.

评估加拿大地位第一民族的制度化和无家可归:一种方法和启示

我们提出了一种可访问且可重复的方法,用于按年龄和性别计算加拿大原住民国家的制度化和无家可归的比率。我们表明,可以通过结合人口普查和行政数据来进行此计算,并且可以定期进行计算。我们估计,特别是在年轻的身份地位男性中,寄养和无家可归的比例非常高。在2001年和2006年之间,平均估计有12%的Status男性人口是机构化的或无家可归的。我们表明,如此高的制度化和无家可归现象导致男女性别比例出现扭曲,这可能对加拿大地位第一民族的持续合法存在产生长期影响。JEL分类:J10,J15,J16,O15,I14,I15,I32
