- Profile of a community or region: 99-010-X2011015Description:
Using 2011 National Household Survey (NHS) data, this profile provides a statistical overview of Immigration, Citizenship, Place of birth, Language, Ethnic origin, Visible minority and Religion variables as well as variables describing Aboriginal peoples. In the National Household Survey product line, groups of related variables are referred to as 'release components of profiles.' These are made available with the major releases of variables of the NHS cycle, starting with the Immigration and Ethnocultural Diversity, and Aboriginal Peoples releases. Together, they will form a complete NHS Profile of all the variables for each level of geography. Profile-component data are available at the Canada, province and territory, census division and census subdivision levels, at the census metropolitan area and census agglomeration levels, and at the federal electoral district (based on the 2003 Representation Order) level.

The Custom Area Creation Service allows users to define their own geographic areas of study (user-defined areas or aggregations of standard census/National Household Survey geographic areas) for data tabulations. This custom geography is produced from an aggregation of dissemination blocks or where necessary, block-faces. Contact Statistics Canada's Statistical Information Service for more information.

Release date: 1999-09-09 - Articles and reports: 92F0138M1996001Description:
The purpose of this document is to report on the reasoning for continuing to use the digital planimeter for calculating land area for the 1996 Census. Despite the fact that the data are subject to a number of errors and logical inconsistencies, the Geography Division does not yet have a digital database in place to support the automated calculation of land area.
This report first provides an historical background on the treatment of land area. It then presents the results of some land area tests based on 1991 data. The tests include the actual use of the digital planimeter, as well as logical consistency checks that compare land area with total area. Finally, a description of the 1996 Digital Cartographic File of enumeration areas (EA/DCF) demonstrates the reason why that file is not employed to calculate land area in an automated fashion.
Release date: 1999-03-05 - 44. Automated Land Area Tests for the 2001 Census: Preliminary Results Using the 1996 Digital Cartographic Files ArchivedArticles and reports: 92F0138M1998001Description:
Prior to the 2001 Census, the Geography Division manually calculated land area using a planimeter. The manual approach was necessary since the division did not have a national digital database to support an automated method. The manual land area calculation was a labour intensive process as well as very time consuming, expensive and very prone to error. With the anticipation of having a national digital base for the 2001 Census (to be called the National Geographic Base or NGB), the automated land area calculation becomes a simple GIS process.
The objectives of this paper are to show the effects of data aggregation and different map projections on automated land area calculation. The testing is a two- staged process; the first stage uses the 1996 Digital Cartographic Files (DCFs) and the second stage will use the NGB. Although the DCFs are not ideal for testing land area, this two-staged approach is necessary since the NGB will not be completed until Autumn 1998. This report presents results on the first stage using the 1996 DCFs.
The results reveal that the effects of data aggregation are minimal; thus land area can be stored at the census block level and then aggregated to higher level geographic entities without any serious ramifications for the 2001 Census. The results also indicate that an equal-area projection, specifically the Albers Equal-Area Conic projection, is more appropriate for calculating land area.

This paper presents data collected from the Survey of Labour and Income Dynamics (SLID) preliminary interview on a person's work experience: years of full-time work, part-time work and no work. It uses these data to study the effect of Labour market intermittency (or time not in a full-time job) on current employment earnings.
