The #2026Census has begun! Look for your census letter in the mail. Census data paint a portrait of Canadians and their stories – from small communities to entire provinces and territories. Complete your census today at census.gc.ca.
There’s still time! May 12th is Census day, but you can complete your questionnaire into July.
Came here to say the same as Charles, would love to self select for a long form... which means that people like you and I would be over-represented!
Quite a pickle.
Yeah you hit the problem on the head. Giving people the choice would break the survey methodology and invalidate the results. Random selection is the only way to ensure that respondents provide representative answers for the population.
