- Surveys and statistical programs – Documentation: 98-20-00032021002Description: This video is one of a series of videos related to census geography in the context of the activities of the 2021 Census and previous censuses. The objective of this video is to describe the classification of geographic areas in Canada. Well-defined geographic areas provide the framework for data collection, dissemination and analysis. This video will provide an understanding of how geographic areas are organized, the coding standards and the differences between administrative and statistical areas.Release date: 2022-02-09
- Surveys and statistical programs – Documentation: 98-20-00032021001Description: This video is the first one of a series of videos related to census geography, concepts and products in the context of the activities of the 2021 Census and previous censuses. The objective of this first video is to describe the role of geography. The remaining videos from this series, that will be released at later dates, will aim to provide an overview on the geographic regions of Canada, some of the products offered by Statistics Canada, and the census data visualization tools.Release date: 2021-11-17
- Surveys and statistical programs – Documentation: 98-302-XDescription:
The Overview of the Census is a reference document covering each phase of the Census of Population and Census of Agriculture. It provides an overview of the 2011 Census from legislation governing the census to content determination, collection, processing, data quality assessment and data dissemination. It also traces the history of the census from the early days of New France to the present.
In addition, the Overview of the Census informs users about the steps taken to protect confidential information, along with steps taken to verify the data and minimize errors. It also provides information on the possible uses of census data and covers the different levels of geography and the range of products and services available.
The Overview of the Census may be useful to both new and experienced users who wish to familiarize themselves with and find specific information about the 2011 Census. The first part covers the Census of Population, while the second is about the Census of Agriculture.
Release date: 2012-02-08 - 4. What You Need to Know Before You Glance ArchivedSurveys and statistical programs – Documentation: 96-328-M2004001Description:
This activity helps students understand the language and terminology related to the census. It forms the basis for students' learning throughout the rest of the Canadian Agriculture at a Glance activities.
Release date: 2004-06-09 - 5. First You Take an Ecumene... ArchivedSurveys and statistical programs – Documentation: 96-328-M2004002Description:
This activity focusses on the term 'ecumene' and how it is used to define terminology related to mapping.
Release date: 2004-06-09 - 6. Living with the Farm Next Door ArchivedSurveys and statistical programs – Documentation: 96-328-M2004005Description:
This activity looks at the competing interests and potential for conflict between very large livestock farms and their rural neighbours.
Release date: 2004-06-09 - 7. Definitions of 'Rural' ArchivedSurveys and statistical programs – Documentation: 21-601-M2002061Description:
This paper compares six definitions of the word 'rural' from databases at Statistics Canada. Each definition emphasizes different criteria (population size, density, context) and has different associated thresholds. The size of the territorial units (building blocks) from which each definition is constructed also varies.
Release date: 2002-12-23 - 8. Definitions of Rural ArchivedSurveys and statistical programs – Documentation: 21-006-X2001003Geography: CanadaDescription:
The purpose of this bulletin is to review various responses to "Why are you asking about rural populations?"; to summarize and compare alternative definitions that have been used to delineate the "rural" population within the databases at Statistics Canada; and to offer alternative definitions of "rural" that would be appropriate to each reason for asking about the rural population.
Release date: 2001-11-19 - Surveys and statistical programs – Documentation: 21-601-M2001046Description:
This paper explores the current geographical patterning of First Nations communities. It looks at possible strategies for their socio-economic development and compares these communities with the socio-economic landscape of non-Aboriginal Canada.
Release date: 2001-04-04 - Surveys and statistical programs – Documentation: 11-522-X19990015678Description:
A population needs-based health care resource allocation model was developed and applied using age, sex and health status of populations to measure population need for health care in Ontario. To develop the model, provincial data on self-assessed health and health service utilization by age and sex from 62,413 respondents to the 1990 Ontario Health Survey (OHS) were used in combination with provincial health care expenditure data for the fiscal year 1995/96 by age and sex. The model was limited to the services that were covered in the OHS (general practitioner, specialist physician, optometry, physiotherapy, chiropractic and acute hospital). The distribution of utilization and expenditures between age-sex-health status categories was used to establish appropriate health care resource shares for each age-sex-health status combination. These resource shares were then applied to geographic populations using age, sex and health status data from the OHS together with more recent population estimates to determine the needs-based health care resource allocation for each area. Total dollar allocations were restricted to sum to the 1995/96 provincial budget and were compared with 1995/96 allocations to determine the extent to which Ontario allocations are consistent with the relative needs of the area populations.
