Former census divisions
Prior to the division of the NWT and the creation of Nunavut in 1999, there were five census divisions. Their boundaries were altered somewhat as part of the adjustment.
- Baffin Region, Northwest Territories
- Fort Smith Region, Northwest Territories
- Inuvik Region, Northwest Territories
- Keewatin Region, Northwest Territories
- Kitikmeot Region, Northwest Territories
These regions are not to be confused with the former districts of the Northwest Territories.
