FNIRHS: First Nations and Inuit Regional Health Survey; FNRHS: First Nations Regional Health Survey; FNFNES: First Nations Food, Nutrition and Environment Study; UBC: University of British Columbia; NCP: Northern Contaminants Program. ±Sample size for respondents who accepted to give height and weight data was not available. Sample size was only available for all study respondents. ^†Reviewers urge caution in the interpretation of differences between studies where the provincial rates of obesity were based, at least in part, on measured height and weight, because the CCHS 2007–10 results to which they are compared were based on self-reported height and weight. ^‡Rates from Atlantic Canada were compared to the CCHS 2007–10 average for NB, NS, PE, and NL.
