    Description:

    Privacy concerns are a barrier to applying remote analytics, including machine learning, on sensitive data via the cloud. In this work, we use a leveled fully Homomorphic Encryption scheme to train an end-to-end supervised machine learning algorithm to classify texts while protecting the privacy of the input data points. We train our single-layer neural network on a large simulated dataset, providing a practical solution to a real-world multi-class text classification task. To improve both accuracy and training time, we train an ensemble of such classifiers in parallel using ciphertext packing.

    Description:

    This chapter provides a broad overview of the education situation of Canadian youth. It focuses on the general level of education for young Canadians, as well as on which groups are driving the rise in educational attainment. The chapter also examines the literacy and numeracy skills of young Canadians and how they compare with their counterparts in other OECD countries. Finally, it looks at some of the costs and benefits of a postsecondary education in Canada, including how such an education has been rewarded in the labour market.

    Description:

    COVID-19's impact on the economy was far reaching. Canadian businesses borrowed money form multiple sources to help guide them through the pandemic. Using data derived from the National Economic Accounts Division, Bank of Canada, and International Accounts and Trade Division this paper examines trends observed in the business debt financing market leading up to and during the COVID-19 pandemic.

    Description:

    Using the 2017 General Social Survey on Families, this article provides a profile of non-parental child care among Canadian families. It examines parents' use of child care, including the types of child care arrangements used by parents, the cost of care, the reasons for selecting a type of child care, as well as reasons for not using child care. The article also looks at the characteristics of mothers' employment.

    Description:

    This article presents the data sources and methodology for the Wholesale Services Price Index (WSPI). The WSPI measures the monthly and the quarterly changes in the price of wholesale services in Canada. The index is an indicator of economic activity in the wholesales services sector, as well as a tool that can be utilized by the industry for cost monitoring, contract assessment and benchmark comparisons.

    Description:

    One effective way to conduct statistical disclosure control is to use scrambled responses. Scrambled responses can be generated by using a controlled random device. In this paper, we propose using the sample empirical likelihood approach to conduct statistical inference under complex survey design with scrambled responses. Specifically, we propose using a Wilk-type confidence interval for statistical inference. Our proposed method can be used as a general tool for inference with confidential public use survey data files. Asymptotic properties are derived, and the limited simulation study verifies the validity of theory. We further apply the proposed method to some real applications.

    Description:

    This study examines MHCs by immigrants and refugees-compared with those of Canadian-born respondents-while controlling for self-reported mental health and immigrant characteristics, using a population-based survey linked to immigrant landing information. This study, which is based on a linked database, allows for much richer insight into immigrant populations than most previous studies.

    Description:

    Previous Canadian studies on poverty and low-income persistence mostly focused on individual characteristics at the national level and rarely examined the geographical aspect of poverty persistence. This report takes advantage of the large sample size of the Longitudinal Administrative Databank and examines the evolution of low-income persistence in Canada and the provinces using the after-tax Low Income Measure.

    The purpose of the third iteration of the Canadian Perspectives Survey Series (CPSS) which ran from June 15 to 21, 2020 is to explore the re-opening of economic and social activity. Using data on family and caregivers, this article examines how household chores are shared between men and women in a couple, during confinement. The data covers persons aged 20 and over in Canada who were married or in a common-law relationship at the time of the survey. Respondents living in the same household with a spouse or partner of the opposite sex are considered.
