Canadian Census 2011

Have just completed my first ever online census for Canada. Not all that onerous, and about as basic as it gets. Essentially it boiled down to these questions;
  1. Who are you?
  2. How many live there permanently?
  3. Who are they?
  4. Is this your correct address?
Remarkably painless. Five minutes. I can do this.

    Now that's a sensible census.

    The last post shows that Canada's government is stupid. This one shows that it's sensible. Must be a confusing place to live.

    AE,

    Our politicians aren't dumb, they do actually listen to other people outside of their own little echo chamber. Slightly wrong footing sometimes, but I'm getting used to it.

    Compare your Canadian census to the one we in the UK have just been subjected to.
    I think that my returned form must have been lost in the post.
    That's fortunate, because there's no way I'm going to give what passes for a Government here all of the information which they DEMANDED on pain of a swingeing fine for non-compliance.
    My reaction was "Stuff you!"
