  1. This is not an administrative file but was mostly sourced from administrative reports (such as The National Child Benefit Progress Report 2006); ad-hoc adjustments were required to manipulate data for program years into calendar years and add in data from the Régie de rentes du Québec for the Quebec child assistance program.
