“…Among possible directions for future research, qualitative studies using focus group methodology could help to contextualize the relationships among spirituality, Aboriginal language and current smoking among Métis. With regard to socio-economic and health-related covariates, many factors associated with smoking among Métis are similar to what has been observed among the general population, including low income, low education, 9 low levels of physical activity, 10 and heavy alcohol consumption. 11 Although smoking cessation interventions should target all Métis who smoke, these findings emphasize that interventions should particularly target those with low income and education, and those who engage in other health behaviours that are not health-promoting.…”

“…Demographic, geographic, socio-economic and health-related covariates were selected based on prior research showing significant associations between these factors and smoking among the general population.

“…9 In addition, low physical activity levels, heavy drinking, and low body mass index are health-related variables correlated with smoking among the general population.

OBJECTIVE: To examine the correlates of current smoking among Métis aged 18 years and older, with a particular focus on culturally-specific factors. Cultural factors included spirituality, knowledge of an Aboriginal language, membership in a Métis organization and attendance at Métis cultural events. Demographic, geographic, socio-economic and health-related variables were also considered.METHODS: Data from 6,610 adult Métis aged 18 years and older who responded to the 2006 Aboriginal Peoples Survey and Métis supplement were used to examine the correlates of current smoking using sequential binary logistic regression modelling.RESULTS: Overall, 39.9% of adult Métis respondents in the sample were current smokers. Adult Métis who reported a high level of spirituality were less likely to be current smokers. Those who spoke an Aboriginal language, or lived in a house where an Aboriginal language was spoken, were more likely to be current smokers. Being a member of a Métis organization and attending cultural events were not independently associated with current smoking. Métis with higher household income, greater education, higher self-perceived health, and greater physical activity participation were less likely to be current smokers, whereas those who reported heavy alcohol consumption were more likely to be current smokers. CONCLUSIONS:The results of this study suggest that interventions aimed at reducing smoking among adult Métis might be more successful if they include some connection to spirituality. It is also evident that co-occurring risk behaviours, in addition to demographic and socio-economic factors, are important considerations when developing interventions to reduce smoking among this population.KEY WORDS: Smoking; tobacco; Indigenous population; adult; Canada La traduction du résumé se trouve à la fin de l'article.

Introduction Les taux d’obésité chez les jeunes ne cessent d’augmenter au Canada. Dans cette étude, nous avons réalisé des estimations conservatrices des calories excédentaires susceptibles de découler de la consommation d’alcool en fonction des habitudes de consommation courantes chez les jeunes Canadiens, afin de déterminer si la consommation d’alcool devrait être prise en compte dans les futures stratégies de prévention de l’obésité. Méthodologie Des données portant sur 10 144 élèves de 12e année ayant participé à l’étude COMPASS (2013-2014) ont été utilisées pour estimer l’apport calorique annuel provenant de la consommation d’alcool. Pour effectuer nos estimations, nous avons classé les boissons alcoolisées en trois catégories, en fonction de leur teneur moyenne en calories (coolers à base de vodka; bière 5 %; bière 4 %, vin et spiritueux) et de la fréquence de consommation et d'abus occasionnel d’alcool (ou hyperalcoolisation rapide). Résultats Les résultats ont indiqué un apport calorique potentiel élevé chez les élèves qui s’adonnaient aux abus occasionnels d’alcool, ainsi qu’une forte variabilité dans les estimations de l’apport calorique en fonction des habitudes de consommation courantes associées aux différents types de boisson. Par exemple, 27,2 % des élèves s’adonnaient à un abus occasionnel d’alcool une fois par mois, ce qui représente une consommation de 6 000 à 13 200 calories par année (soit 0,78 à 1,71 kg de gras). Pour les 4,9 % d’élèves qui s’adonnaient à un abus occasionnel d’alcool deux fois par semaine, le nombre de calories consommées en une année se situerait entre 52 000 et 114 400 (soit 6,74 à 14,83 kg de gras). Conclusion Les recommandations en vigueur pour la prévention de l’obésité chez les jeunes ne tiennent généralement pas compte de la consommation d’alcool. Étant donné à la fois les taux élevés de consommation d’alcool et d'abus occasionnels d’alcool fréquents chez les jeunes mis en lumière dans cette étude et la grande quantité de calories que contiennent les boissons alcoolisées, tenir compte de la consommation d’alcool dans les efforts de prévention de l’obésité chez les jeunes serait pertinent.
