Edmonton has Canada's second largest Indigenous population: census

More than 76,000 people in the Edmonton region identify as First Nations, Inuit or Métis, once again making it home to Canada’s second-largest Indigenous population. 
Between 2006 and 2016, metro Edmonton’s Indigenous population rose to 76,205 people from 52,000, census data released Wednesday shows, an increase of nearly 50 per cent that Statistics Canada attributes to natural growth and a rise in the number of people who identify as Indigenous.
