Canadian Census

The Canadian Census is a nationwide survey conducted every five years by Statistics Canada to collect detailed information about the country’s population and households. It gathers data on demographics (age, gender, ethnicity), housing, employment, education, language, and other social and economic factors. This information helps government planners, policymakers, and organizations understand trends, allocate resources, and develop policies that serve communities effectively. Participation is essential for accurate representation, and the census provides a comprehensive snapshot of Canada’s evolving social landscape.
