Definition:

Statistical testing was performed via contrasts in the model to determine whether regional rates were statistically significantly different from the Manitoba rate for a given time period, and whether rates over time were statistically significantly different within an area. For RHA and Winnipeg CA-level analyses, contrasts with significance level 0.01 were used; for RHA District and Winnipeg NC-level analyses, contrasts with significance level 0.005 were used.
