Re: CENSUS 2011
I took a few semesters of 'social statistics' that included in depth study of the census, census design, statistic software, analysis of social data... thank god the lecturer was good looking or I'd have never shown up.
Although there was an interesting bit about census data that was obviously (or not so obviously) taking the piss and the wee collection of census funnies Stats Can has. |
Re: CENSUS 2011

I received a sort of pamphlet just last week with a code and instructions about doing it on the internet. Or where to call/write if I wanted a paper copy. I first thought it was junk mail and nearly tossed it... maybe you did! |

Re: CENSUS 2011
you def dont need to be in the 1 in 3 to do the household census.
you can still do it regardless if you where choosen or not. and if you havent completed your short census, then yes you will receive a visit, I start working on that shortly so you could get a nice visit from me. if you dont have one then call 1-877-777-2011 and they will arrange one to be sent out. |

That sounds similar to the one we received. Logged onto the website, put in code, all done in about 3 mins.
Easy peasy. Having said that, you do wonder what the technophobes who don't have internet access would do as it was assuming that you would do it online. I have no problem with this, but my mother (if she were in Canada and was still alive) would have had a real problem as she was terrified of computers... |

You just fill the form out and stick it in the mail
But the whole point is that there WAS no form... just the online access code... |
