Reference to Personal Information Bank (PIB)

Personal information collected through the Canadian Legal Problems Survey is described in Statistics Canada's "Special Surveys" Personal Information Bank. The Personal Information Bank refers to information collected through Statistics Canada's ad hoc surveys, which do not form part of the regular survey taking activity of the Agency. They cover a variety of socio-economic topics including health, housing, labour market, education and literacy, as well as demographic data.

The "Special Surveys" Personal Information Bank (Bank number: StatCan PPU 026) is published on the Statistics Canada website under the latest Information about Programs and Information Holdings chapter.

Description of statistical activity

Statistics Canada, under the authority of the Statistics Act, will conduct the Canadian Legal Problems Survey on behalf of the Department of Justice Canada. This voluntary household survey will collect information on disputes or problems, which may or may not require legal advice, and examine how these situations have impacted Canadians' lives. The survey aims to gather information to help governments better understand these situations, and evaluate whether or not Canadians have access to legal advice and services, and the associated costs.

Statistics Canada will publish aggregate results in the Daily (the Agency's official release bulletin) in a detailed analytical report and a summary of the survey findings along with tables. These data are fully anonymized and non-confidential, without any direct personal identifiers, which precludes the possibility of re-identifying individuals. The Department of Justice Canada will use the published data to help develop tools and measures to support Canadians experiencing legal problems and to evaluate federal contributions to civil legal aid. In addition, the information will be used to inform and develop programs to address Canadians' legal needs and problems, such as supporting community justice centres, enhancing legal literacy and other people-centred approaches to access justice.

This survey will collect information from individuals 18 years and older living in the provinces, with the exception of institutional residents. The survey includes questions about the types of legal problems experienced and actions taken to resolve them, access to legal advice and the associated costs, as well as the level of understanding of the legal implications, the evolution and status of the problems, the overall impacts on a person's life including health, family and work. In addition, information such as date of birth, age, gender, sexual orientation, Indigenous identity, country of birth, immigration and citizenship, population group, education and income will be collected. Responses will be aggregated to ensure that no individual can be identified in published results.

Reason for supplement

While the Generic Privacy Impact Assessment (PIA) addresses most of the privacy and security risks related to statistical activities conducted by Statistics Canada, this supplement describes additional measures being implemented due to the sensitivity of the information being collected. As is the case with all PIAs, Statistics Canada's privacy framework ensures that elements of privacy protection and privacy controls are documented and applied.

The Canadian Legal Problems Survey will collect information on legal issues such as abuse, police brutality, discrimination, and harassment. Questions on sensitive topics may cause distress for some respondents. This supplement also presents an analysis of the necessity and proportionality of collecting this sensitive information.

Necessity and Proportionality

The collection and use of personal information for the Canadian Legal Problems Survey can be justified against Statistics Canada's Necessity and Proportionality Framework:

  1. Necessity:

    Data from the Canadian Legal Problems Survey seeks to improve our understanding of legal problems encountered by Canadians and the impact on the Canadian population, thus supporting decision-making at all levels of government.

    The Department of Justice Canada will analyze the survey results, in aggregate form and without personal identifiers, to assess the possible need for federal government contributions to civil legal aid. The information will also be used to inform and develop programs to address Canadians' legal problems and needs, such as supporting community justice centres, enhancing legal literacy and other people-centred approaches to accessing justice. The aggregate anonymous data will also be available to provincial governments and other legal associations to help, for example, identify ways to communicate or raise awareness of legal aid services, identify the most common problems that groups of the population are facing, and establish programs to help Canadians resolve those problems.

    Only individuals 18 years of age and older, living in the provinces, with the exception of institutional residents (people who live in an institutional collective dwelling, such as a hospital, a nursing home or a prison), are eligible to participate in the Canadian Legal Problems Survey. As such, respondents will first be asked to provide their date of birth or age, and their province of residence, in order to establish whether they can take part in the survey.

    The demographic data collected, including gender, sexual orientation, Indigenous identity, country of birth, immigration status and related information, citizenship, population group, and education and income, will be used for analysis of subgroups of the population. This data serves to better understand the social determinants of justice. Just as with the social determinants of health, some research has noted that certain characteristics, such as income, age, education, race, geography, influence justice outcomes. For example, it is known that characteristics such as sexual orientation or gender identity can lead to marginalization, discrimination and harassment, but there is a lack of national data on this. Demographic data (in particular race-based) is needed to better understand the impacts of the justice system on Canadians, and to inform change.

    The survey data file, with all personal identifiers removed, will be made available to researchers in the Research Data Centres (RDC) upon approval of requests to access the data for statistical research. Statistics Canada's directives and policies on data publication will be followed to ensure the confidentiality of any data released from the RDC. Only aggregate results, which are fully anonymized and non-confidential, without direct personal identifiers, which precludes the possibility of re-identifying individuals, can be released from the RDC. Individual responses will be grouped with those of others when reporting results and results for very small groups will not be published or shared with government departments or agencies. This will also reduce any potential impact on vulnerable populations or subsets of populations, as the grouping of results will protect the confidentiality of individual responses.

    A public use microdata file (PUMF) will also be created and made available upon request. The PUMF is a fully anonymized and non-confidential file; survey variables that directly identify respondents are excluded, and variables that might indirectly identify respondents are also examined and modified if necessary to protect the privacy and confidentiality of respondents.

    Personal identifiers will be kept separately from the survey data and replaced by a statistical identifier. The data file will be retained as long as required for statistical purposes, in order to conduct long-term analysis.

  2. Effectiveness—Working Assumptions:

    The survey will be conducted using a self-reported electronic questionnaire. The sample frame for this survey will be developed by Statistics Canada methodologists using administrative files within the Agency, which contain personal information such as name and contact information. The sample frame is created to ensure the Canadian population is represented, whether or not they have encountered serious disputes or problems. This information will be used to contact individuals selected for the survey. Targeting individuals who have encountered serious disputes or problems is not possible as this information is not available within Statistics Canada's data holdings or survey frame. Prior to collection, selected individuals will be sent an invitation letter with details about the survey such as the survey purpose and the protection of confidentiality, as well as a list of legal and mental health resources. The letter will include a unique secure access code for the respondent to access the electronic questionnaire on Statistics Canada's secure survey infrastructure.

    Statistics Canada interviewers will conduct follow-up phone calls with people who have not responded after six weeks, to invite them again. This will also provide respondents the opportunity to complete the survey over the telephone with a trained Statistics Canada interviewer.

    The collection period will be approximately three months. Statistics Canada will follow all directives and policies for the development, collection, and dissemination of the survey. Survey responses will not be directly attached to respondents' personal identifiers, such as their name, address or phone numbers. The other personal information collected during the survey such as gender, sexual orientation, Indigenous identity, country of birth, immigration status and related information, citizenship, population group, education and income, will be grouped to create statistics for publication of survey results, or to create a public use microdata file (PUMF) in order to ensure anonymity, and used for analysis of sub-populations.

  3. Proportionality:

    The survey includes a representative sample from the general population (30,000) as well as a sample of Indigenous Peoples divided into smaller sub-groups by Indigenous identity (12,400). The sample size of Indigenous Peoples is necessary to publish national-level estimates for Indigenous Peoples grouped by gender while protecting the privacy and confidentiality of respondents. The total sample size of 42,400 persons has been assessed as the minimum required to ensure that estimates calculated from the collected data are of sufficient quality.

    Experts at Statistics Canada and the Department of Justice Canada were consulted on the scope and methodology of the Canadian Legal Problems Survey. Questions from other Statistics Canada surveys have been included and qualitative testing was performed. Five questions on the COVID-19 pandemic have been included in order to assess the impact of the pandemic on serious and not easily resolved disputes or problems encountered by the respondents. For example, the pandemic may have caused serious problems, or delays to procedures, or access to legal services due to closures. This information will also provide context when analyzing the data.

    Statistics Canada directives and policies with respect to data collection and publication will be followed to ensure the confidentiality of the data. Individual responses will be grouped with those of others when reporting results. Individual responses and results for very small groups will not be published or shared with government departments or agencies. This will also reduce any potential impact on vulnerable populations or subsets of populations, as the grouping of results will make it difficult to identify responses by individuals within a particular subset of the population.

    The benefits of the findings, which will support decision-making at all levels of government, improve knowledge and understanding of legal problems encountered by Canadians and the impact on them, and the steps taken to protect privacy, are proportional to the potential risks to an individual's privacy.

  4. Proportionality has also been considered based on data sensitivity and ethics:
    • Data sensitivity:

      Given that information on members of Indigenous Communities will be produced through this survey, experts from Statistics Canada's Centre for Indigenous Statistics and Partnerships (CISP) have been consulted and will continue to be consulted throughout the survey process. They will also review the summary of the survey results prior to their release.

    • Ethics:

      Prior to collection, individuals selected to participate in the survey will be clearly informed about the survey topics and that the survey is voluntary. This information is found on the questionnaire or provided by the interviewer before any questions are asked so that people can make an informed decision about whether or not they want to participate. They will also be notified that their data may be linked to immigration data and to other surveys or administrative data sources. If respondents have questions or concerns about such linkages, they will be provided with appropriate contact information at Statistics Canada.

      Since the topic of the survey is sensitive and could lead to distress, resources on mental health and legal help will be made available to the respondents in their invitation letter, on the survey's web page, in the brochure, the electronic questionnaire, and during interviews. Interviewers will be trained on how to administer the questionnaire and respond to questions from respondents. They will be instructed not to provide legal or mental health advice to respondents, but instead direct people to the appropriate legal or mental health experts listed in the survey material.

  5. Alternatives:

    Currently, there is no other data source that gathers information on how legal problems impact Canadians' lives. The possibility of using crowdsourcing or other survey methodologies was explored. However, based on discussions between justice and methodology experts at Statistics Canada and the Department of Justice Canada, it was determined that a survey with at least 42,400 units was necessary to produce reliable and accurate results by province. Releasing data at these aggregated levels will reduce the potential to identify impacts on vulnerable populations, subsets of populations, and groups, while providing meaningful results.

Mitigation factors

Some questions on the Canadian Legal Problems Survey are considered sensitive as they relate to serious and not easily resolved disputes or problems encountered by individuals and the impacts those problems have had on their lives. The overall risk of harm to the survey respondents has been deemed manageable with existing Statistics Canada safeguards that are described in Statistics Canada's Generic Privacy Impact Assessment, as well as with the following measures:

Mental Health and Legal Resources

  • on a separate sheet (provincial resources) mailed to respondents with the invitation letter to participate in the survey, and on Statistics Canada's website;
  • in a brochure (national resources) that also provides details about the survey such as the survey purpose, how the survey results will be used and the protection of confidentiality;
  • in the questionnaire through help screens that respondents can view alongside sensitive questions, and;
  • at the end of the questionnaire, on the submit page.

In addition, interviewer training will be conducted and an interviewer manual will be provided to ensure that interviewers know not to provide advice to respondents who show signs of distress, but to provide them with information to access mental health or legal resources.

Transparency

Prior to the survey, respondents will be informed of the survey purpose, allowing them to decide if they want to participate. This information will be provided through invitation and reminder letters, and reiterated at the beginning of the questionnaire. Respondents will also be informed that their participation is voluntary before being asked any questions. Information about the survey, including a brochure, as well as the survey questionnaire, will be made available on Statistics Canada's website on the day collection starts.

Confidentiality

Individual responses will be grouped with those of others when reporting results. Individual responses and results for very small groups will never be published or shared with government departments or agencies. Careful analysis of the data and consideration will be given prior to the release of aggregate data to ensure that marginalized and vulnerable communities are not disproportionally impacted.

A fully anonymized public use microdata file (PUMF) will also be created and made available upon request to the survey sponsor and the population in general. Survey variables that directly identify respondents are excluded from the PUMF, and variables that might indirectly identify respondents are also examined and modified as necessary in order to protect the privacy and confidentiality of respondents.

Conclusion

This assessment concludes that, with the existing Statistics Canada safeguards and additional mitigation factors listed above, any remaining risks are such that Statistics Canada is prepared to accept and manage the risk.

Reporting instructions

1. Please report all dollar amounts in thousands of Canadian dollars ('000 CAN$).

2. Do not include sales tax.

3. Percentages should be rounded to whole numbers

4. When precise figures are not available, please provide your best estimates.

Business or organization and contact information

This section verifies or requests basic identifying information of the business or organization such as legal name, operating name (if applicable), contact information of the designated contact person, current operational status, and main activity (ies).

  1. Legal name and Operating name

Legal Name
The legal name is one recognized by law, thus it is the name liable for pursuit or for debts incurred by the business or organization. In the case of a corporation, it is the legal name as fixed by its charter or the statute by which the corporation was created.

Modifications to the legal name should only be done to correct a spelling error or typo.

To indicate a legal name of another legal entity you should instead indicate it in question 3 by selecting 'Not currently operational' and then choosing the applicable reason and providing the legal name of this other entity along with any other requested information.

Operating Name
The operating name is a name the business or organization is commonly known as if different from its legal name. The operating name is synonymous with trade name.

  1. Designated contact person

Verify or provide the requested contact information of the designated business or organization contact person. The designated contact person is the person who should receive this questionnaire. The designated contact person may not always be the one who actually completes the questionnaire. If different than the designated contact person, the contact information of the person completing the questionnaire can be indicated later in the questionnaire.

  1. Current operational status

Verify or provide the current operational status of the business or organization identified by the legal and operating name in question 1. If indicating the operational status of the business or organization is 'Not currently operational' then indicate an applicable reason and provide the requested information.

  1. Main activity

This question verifies the business or organization's current main activity as classified by the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS). The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) is an industry classification system developed by the statistical agencies of Canada, Mexico and the United States. Created against the background of the North American Free Trade Agreement, it is designed to provide common definitions of the industrial structure of the three countries and a common statistical framework to facilitate the analysis of the three economies. NAICS is based on supply-side or production-oriented principles, to ensure that industrial data, classified to NAICS, are suitable for the analysis of production-related issues such as industrial performance.

The target entity for which NAICS is designed are businesses and other organizations engaged in the production of goods and services. They include farms, incorporated and unincorporated businesses and government business enterprises. They also include government institutions and agencies engaged in the production of marketed and non-marketed services, as well as organizations such as professional associations and unions and charitable or non-profit organizations and the employees of households.

The associated NAICS should reflect those activities conducted by the business or organizational unit(s) targeted by this questionnaire only, as identified in the 'Answering this questionnaire' section and which can be identified by the specified legal and operating name. The main activity is the activity which most defines the targeted business or organization's main purpose or reason for existence. For a business or organization that is for-profit, it is normally the activity that generates the majority of the revenue for the entity.

The NAICS classification contains a limited number of activity classifications; the associated classification might be applicable for this business or organization even if it is not exactly how you would describe this business or organization's main activity.

Please note that any modifications to the main activity through your response to this question might not necessarily be reflected prior to the transmitting of subsequent questionnaires and as a result they may not contain this updated information.

If the current NAICS associated with this business or organizations is not correct, please provide a brief description of the main activity and provide any additional information as requested.

Welcome to the Accessibility Statistics Hub, a collaborative initiative to share data on accessibility with the Canadian public. Data are organized according to the 7 priority areas as set out in the Accessible Canada Act.

Performance Indicator Framework for Accessibility Data

The Performance Indicator Framework (PIF) for Accessibility Data represents the Government of Canada's approach to measuring progress in the identification, removal, and prevention of barriers to accessibility over time. The PIF for Accessibility Data is guided by the Federal Data and Measurement Strategy. To date, performance indicators to measure the identification and removal of barriers to accessible employment, information and communication technologies, and transportation have been developed.

Employment

For measurement purposes, accessible employment means a barrier-free experience for people with disabilities in all phases of the employment journey from hiring, to progressing in their career, all the way to retirement.

  • I. Introduction

    A. Description

    The Tuition and Living Accommodation Costs (TLAC) survey collects data for full-time students in degree programs at Canadian public postsecondary institutions. The survey was developed to provide an overview of tuition and additional compulsory fees, and living accommodation costs that students can expect to pay for an academic year.

    TLAC survey data:

  • provides stakeholders, the public and students with annual tuition costs and changes in tuition fees from the previous year
  • contributes to a better understanding of the costs to obtain a degree
  • contributes to education policy development
  • contributes to the Consumer Price Index
  • facilitates interprovincial comparisons
  • facilitates comparisons between institutions
  • B. Reference period

    2021/2022 academic year (September to April)

    C. Population

    The target population is all publicly funded degree-granting institutions (universities and colleges) in Canada.

    The survey target population includes institutions that have degree-granting status for the academic year 2021/2022. Institutions that do not have degree-granting status are excluded even if they provide portions of programs that lead to a degree granted by another institution. The survey is limited to institutions whose operations are primarily funded by provincial governments. Institutions that do not receive grants from Education ministries or departments, and institutions that receive grants only from Health ministries and departments are excluded.

    D. Fields of study

    The field of study classification for both undergraduate and graduate programs are adapted from the 2016 Classification of Instructional Programs (CIP), Statistics Canada's standard for field of study classification. The CIP's structure comprises several groupings developed jointly by Statistics Canada and the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES) in the USA. It is based on work undertaken as part of the creation of the North American Product Classification System (NAPCS) by Canada, the United States and Mexico.

    II. Instructions

    General

    Tuition fee tables disseminated by Statistics Canada are based on an academic year for full-time students with a full course load in degree programs, regardless of the number of credits.

    Tuition should be reported based on the academic year (8 months, September to April) or semester (4 months) regardless of the number of credits. If it is not possible to provide tuition data for a semester or academic year, tuition should be reported per credit.

    Final fees should be reported. If they have not yet been determined, report an estimate and check the box on the questionnaire to state that these are estimated fees for 2021/2022.

    Part A: Tuition fees for full-time students

    How to Report Tuition Fees:

  • Report tuition fees for full-time students in degree programs only. The degree must be conferred by your institution, which means that students start and complete their degree at your institution. DO NOT include associate degrees, diplomas and certificates.
  • Verify and update the previous year data (2020/2021) on each page if required.
  • Report fees with decimals, NO commas. Example 2415.45.
  • Quebec, Nova-Scotia and Newfoundland and Labrador: Lower fees represent Canadian students that have a permanent address in the province (in-province students) and the Upper fees represent Canadian students with an out-of-province permanent address.
  • Academic year (8 months, September to April): When tuition is reported based on the academic year, report the full cost of the program regardless of the number of credits.
  • Semester (4 months): When tuition is reported based on semester, report the full cost of the semester regardless of the number of credits. Semester fees will be multiplied by two to calculate tuition for the academic year (8 months).
  • Per Credit: Only report per credit if you cannot report based on semester or academic year regardless of the number of credits. We assume 30 credits as the minimum number of credits to calculate academic year fees. Therefore, when reporting based on per credit, tuition will be multiplied by 30 credits.
  • Report additional compulsory fees for materials or equipment on pages 4 (undergraduate) and 5 (graduate).
  • NEW degree programs must be specified in the Comments section at the bottom of page 2 (undergraduate) and page 3 (graduate).
  • Undergraduate Law page 2, only professional designations for Law (LLB, JD, BCL), from a Faculty of Law should be reported in this grouping.
  • Graduate Law page 3, only professional Law degrees from a Faculty of Law (post-LLB/JD), should be reported in this grouping.
  • Tuition for legal studies degree programs (non-professional Law degrees) on page 2 and page 3, should be reported under "Social and Behavioural Sciences, and Legal Studies". See Appendix A.
  • Only Medicine (MD, doctor of medicine) program should be reported under undergraduate Medicine, page 2 of the questionnaire. See appendix A.
  • Personal, Protective and Transportation Services includes:
    1. 43.0103 Criminal justice / law enforcement administration
    2. 43.0104 Criminal justice / safety studies
    3. 43.0106 Forensic science and technology
    4. 43.0107 Criminal justice / police science
  • Part B: Additional Compulsory fees for full-time Canadian Students

    How to Report Additional Compulsory Fees:

    In part B of the questionnaire, report additional compulsory fees for full-time Canadian students in the first row of the table where these fees do not vary according to their field of study for all full-time undergraduate students (page 4) and graduate students (page 5).

    Important note: Health Plan and Dental Plan fees that students can opt out of with proof of comparable coverage should not be included. However, this information should be noted in the comments section of the questionnaire.

    Part C: Living Accommodation costs at residences/housing

    Accommodation costs should be reported wherever possible for full-time students living in residence. If it is not possible to separate the room and the meal plan costs for single students only a total should be reported.

    III. Definitions

    Tuition Fees

    Tuition that is charged to a full-time student with a full course load, regardless of the number of credits.

    Additional Compulsory fees

    Additional compulsory fees collected by the TLAC survey are those that all students must pay regardless of the field of study (TLAC grouping).

    These fees cover services that vary from institution to institution, year to year, faculty to faculty, or school to school within the same institution.

    Additional compulsory fees may include: general fees (admission, registration, examination, internship, etc.), technology fees, student services fees, student association fees, contributions to student activities, copyright fees, premiums for compulsory insurance plans, fees for athletics and recreational facilities/activities, and other fees such as transcript, degree, laboratory, uniform, u-pass, etc.

    TLAC Additional Compulsory Fee Breakdown

    Athletics fees

    Mandatory fees that support intercollegiate athletics, they cover athletics facilities and campus recreational activities (intramurals, fitness and recreation courses, etc.)

    Health Services fees

    Mandatory fees support the on-campus clinic facilities providing services of doctors and nurses. Health and dental plan fees: if students can opt out of these plans with proof of comparable coverage, these fees should be excluded from the survey.

    Student Association fee

    Mandatory fees support the general operating expenses of the association.

    Other fees

    If compulsory fees are reported in "Other please specify" you must provide further details on the types of fees reported. For example, u-pass, transcript, laboratory, technology fee, etc.

    IV. Suggestions

    Statistics Canada would welcome any suggestions for changes in the survey which you may wish to propose.
