Description
The Criminal Justice Relational Database (CJRD) was created to allow multivariate analyses on the demographic and socioeconomic factors associated with (repeated) criminal justice system involvement in Canada. It consists of de-identified, integrated criminal justice data, as well as other integrated social data sources (e.g., economic, health, and education data). Integrated files refer to microdata files that are equipped with unique de-identified identifiers that allow the merging of variables at the person level between files.
Corrections to the CJRD data linked to census are now available in Research Data Centres across Canada.

The 2006 Census Concordance Key Files were created with the variable PP_ID as the merging key, but this key was not released on the RDC version of the 2006 Census dataset. The new 2006 Census Concordance Key Files include a different set of variables which, together, make up a unique record identifier for the RDC version of the 2006 Census dataset.
