- Notices and consultations: 89-26-0007Description: This report describes how Statistics Canada administers its responsibilities of the Access to Information Act. It is prepared and submitted in accordance with section 94(1) of the Act and is tabled in Parliament.Release date: 2026-02-25
- Articles and reports: 12-001-X202500200011Description: We propose an approximate hierarchical Bayes approach that uses the Natural Exponential Family with Quadratic Variance Function (NEF-QVF) in combining information from multiple sources to improve traditional survey estimates of finite population means for small areas. Unlike other Bayesian approaches in finite population sampling, we do not assume a model for all units of the finite population and do not require linking sampled units to the finite population frame. We assume a model only for the finite population units in which the outcome variable is observed; because, for these units, the assumed model can be checked using existing statistical tools. We do not posit an elaborate model on the true means for unobserved units. Instead, we assume that population means of cells with the same combination of factor levels are identical across small areas, and that the population mean for a cell is identical to the mean of the observed units in that cell. We apply our proposed methodology to a real-life survey, linking information from multiple disparate data sources. We also provide practical ways of model selection that can be applied to a wider class of models under similar setting but for a diverse range of scientific problems.Release date: 2025-12-23

Workforce insights: Demographics in the food services and drinking places subsector, 2017 to 2023Articles and reports: 11-621-M2025013Description: This paper explores the demographic differences among employees in the food services and drinking places subsector by leveraging administrative data to examine the workforce distribution by gender, age, full-time work status and residency status from 2017 to 2023.Release date: 2025-09-23
- Articles and reports: 11-522-X202500100018Description: The Child Poverty Reduction Act (2018) outlines a need for the New Zealand Government to set three- and ten-yearly persistent child poverty reduction targets come end of 2024. In the absence of longitudinal survey data, a survey-administrative data hybrid method that will facilitate the production of these reduction targets and official estimates of persistent child poverty once reporting is required for the 2025/2026 financial year onwards is outlined. This hybrid approach leverages off the cross-sectional Household Economic Survey (HES), administrative-based beneficiary's family data, and recent advances developed for the construction of households within the Administrative Population Census (APC) at Statistics New Zealand. With increasing data collection challenges due to rising non-response and costs, this survey-admin hybrid method represents an alternative to longitudinal survey data collection, ensuring ongoing sustainable and quality statistics to produce persistent child poverty estimates.Release date: 2025-09-08
- Articles and reports: 11-522-X202500100022Description: In Canada, T1 Tax forms are used to report personal income, whether earned as an employee or through self-employment. Income from self-employment, or "T1 Business Income" is reported by sole proprietorships or partnerships. A T1 partnership involves two or more legal entities jointly filing for a shared business. T1 business data is received as individual filings, meaning partnerships are received separately for each partner. Internal record linkage within the T1 business database is performed to identify partnerships and prevent overcoverage within the final population of T1 businesses. This new T1 partnership identification process takes advantage of newer algorithms, such as DBSCAN numerical clustering fuzzy matching, to identify internal linkages. Graph theory is used to construct the list of partnerships from the row-pairs identified in the linkage process.Release date: 2025-09-08

- 8. Author’s response to comments on “Progress in survey science and practice: Yesterday-today-tomorrow”Articles and reports: 12-001-X202500100015Description: This rejoinder is arranged as a series of themes or issues, inspired by the original article, and addressed, to varying degrees, in the six discussions. Among the themes: probability sampling and other paradigms in survey science; the role of the national statistical institutes in the growth of survey science; recent breakthroughs in the use of administrative data in statistics production, with multiple data inputs; the research tradition: a finite population and a well-behaved sample; deepened awareness, in recent decades, of the tradition and its ramifications; the theory track and the role of the academic sector; attempts, over time, at resolving problems; imperfections in the data collection, in the realized sample; nonresponse treatment, responsive design, panel surveys; realpolitik in national statistics production: a realistic approach to meet urgent demands for statistical information.Release date: 2025-06-30
- Articles and reports: 12-001-X202500100017Description: In his paper, Särndal is reviewing the scientific aspects of the development of the survey sampling theory. In light of multiple changes in this field, some have called for a new paradigm. Upon careful analysis, Särndal lands on saying that there has been a strong research tradition which is anchored on assumptions about finite populations and feasibility of characterizing them with only a sample. With this framework, there can still be research and change, but the paradigm would essentially remain. In my discussion of this article, after providing precisions on the context of National Statistical Offices (mainly about Statistics Canada), I agree on many points and wonder if it is not a change in methodological paradigm rather than statistical paradigm that we are witnessing and point to some possible ways forward.Release date: 2025-06-30
- Articles and reports: 12-001-X202500100020Description: Carl-Erik Särndal’s essay on the challenges to the probability sample survey paradigm (or research tradition) quotes my 2014 article in this journal, which “impatiently” called for a move to a mixed data (or blended data) sources paradigm. I explain my intent not to downgrade probability surveys but to blend them with administrative records and other sources to improve data quality and relevance. The United States has made strides toward blended data since I wrote my article.Release date: 2025-06-30
