Extended family includes all other family members related by blood, marriage or adoption.
Spouse includes current and former legally married and common-law spouses. Adapted from Statistics Canada, Family violence in Canada: A statistical profile 2018, page 8, 2018. This does not constitute an endorsement by Statistics Canada of this product.
