Abstract
This is a report on drug and alcohol use among a band of Ojibwa in Manitoba. It is based on a questionnaire of 80 multiple-choice and open-ended questions. The survey included all residents of a reserve above the age of six. According to the findings the three major predictors of alcohol and drug use were young age, poor family relationships, and lack of participation in hobbies.
