The term Métis is broadly used in Canada to designate people who have both European and First Nations ancestors. Two-thirds of the Métis population of Canada (210 000 persons) live on the Prairies. In 1996, there were 51 000 Métis enumerated in Alberta, 46 000 in Manitoba and 36 600 in Saskatchewan, representing in total, over a third of the Aboriginal population of the Prairie Provinces. Thirteen per cent of the Métis population of Canada lives in British Columbia and a total of 18% lives in Ontario and Quebec.
