History of Nunavut Censuses
In 1851, Canada begin keeping censuses every 10 years. However, these censuses were often taken in different years, and it was not until 1871, after the Dominion of Canada was created, that censuses were taken regularly. Nunavut was officially separated from the Northwest Territories on April 1, 1999. It was first enumerated as part of the Northwest Territories on the 1881 Canada census.
