Instead the tool to be used is the national census, a questionaire which every household in Canada is required to fill in as of June 3 and return in the mail. Approximately 300 census representatives took to the streets of Kitchener and Waterloo Monday, and during this week they will be dropping off the 'dit','? form at every household in the Twin ties. “it gives us a good snapshot of the country at a certain perid of time-it can be used " a benchmark for planning purposes," said Elizabeth Hartley, census Information officer for south-west- ern Ontario. 7 There are two questionaires: a short form made up of nine questions, and a longer version. which includes an additional 23 questions. Four out of every five households will receive the short form. which Statistics Canada estimates will take only nine minutes to complete. Questions on it include such basic things as how many people live in the household, their age. sex. marital status. Every fifth household will receive the long form, which also asks about income earned in the household. the level of education attained by residents. ethnic origin and for other employment Information.
