Share your input on the Survey of Household Spending (SHS)

Opened: August 2024

Consultative engagement objectives

The Survey of Household Spending (SHS) is a national survey that gathers information on the spending habits of Canadians and allows Statistics Canada to measure changes in these spending patterns. It looks at how much households pay for, among others, food, clothing, shelter and transportation.

To continue to provide good quality data in a timely manner and to address challenges such as the response burden and costs associated with the survey, Statistics Canadas seeks to better understand how SHS users and stakeholders use the data. The main goal of the consultation is to gather information from external SHS users about the data they use, the frequency, the purpose (their outcome) and the specific products they use (how they access SHS data).

How to get involved

If you would like to obtain more information on this engagement initiative or are interested in participating, please contact us by email at consultativeengagement-mobilisationconsultative@statcan.gc.ca.

Statistics Canada is committed to respecting the privacy of consultation participants. All personal information created, held, or collected by the agency is kept strictly confidential; it is protected by the Privacy Act. For more information on Statistics Canada's privacy policies, please consult the privacy notice.

Results

Summary results of the engagement initiatives will be published online when available.

Notes to participants

Code of conduct

The Statistics Canada Symposium 2024 Organizing Committee is committed to providing an atmosphere in which respect for others and intellectual growth are valued and the free expression and exchange of ideas are encouraged. Consistent with this commitment, it is our policy that all participants in Symposium activities enjoy an inclusive environment that is free from harassment, retaliation, and unlawful discrimination. The Symposium aims to welcome and support people of all backgrounds and identities. This includes, but is not limited to, members of any race, ethnicity, culture, national origin, immigration status, social and economic class, educational level, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity and expression, age, size, family status, political belief, religion, and mental and physical ability.

All participants—including, but not limited to, attendees, Statistics Canada employees, students, registered guests, staff, contractors, and exhibitors—in any Symposium session or other activity—whether official or unofficial—agree to comply with all rules and conditions of the activities. Your registration or attendance at any Symposium event indicates your agreement to abide by this policy and its terms.

Expected Behavior

  • Adopt, model and support the norms of professional respect necessary to promote the conditions for healthy exchange of scientific ideas.
  • Speak and conduct yourself professionally; do not insult or disparage other participants.
  • Be conscious of hierarchical structures in the community, specifically the existence of stark power differentials between junior and senior participants—noting that fear of retaliation from seniors can make it difficult for juniors to express discomfort, rebuff unwelcome advances, and report violations of the conduct policy.
  • Be sensitive to body language and other non-verbal signals and respond respectfully.

Unacceptable Behavior

  • Violent threats or language directed against another person
  • Discriminatory jokes and language
  • Inclusion of unnecessary sexually explicit, violent, or otherwise sensitive materials in presentations
  • Posting (or threatening to post), without permission, other people's personally identifying information online, including on social networking sites
  • Personal insults including, but not limited to, those using racist, sexist, homophobic, or xenophobic terms
  • Unwelcome solicitation of emotional or physical intimacy such as sexual advances; propositions; sexual flirtations; sexually-related touching; and graphic gestures or comments about sex or another person's dress, body, or sexual activities
  • Advocating for, encouraging, or dismissing the severity of any of the above behaviors.

If you are being harassed, if you notice that someone else is being harassed, or if you have any other concerns related to violation of the Symposium Code of Conduct, please send an email to statcan.symposium2024-symposium2024.statcan@statcan.gc.ca

If a participant engages in harassing behavior at a Symposium event, the conference organizers may take any action they deem appropriate, including warning the offender or expulsion from the conference. Participants asked to stop any harassing behavior are expected to comply immediately.

We expect participants to follow these rules at all Symposium activities, including in interactions with the Symposium staff/volunteers, conference and workshop venues, and conference-related social events, so that all participants can enjoy an engaging exchange of ideas is a welcoming setting.

2024 Field Crop Survey - November

Introduction

Purpose

The purpose of the field crop surveys is to obtain information on seeded and harvested field crop areas, average yields, production and on-farm stocks at strategic times over the course of a typical crop cycle, which ranges from spring to late fall. Therefore, the field crop surveys are conducted in June, November and December. Model-based estimates are used for March on-farm stocks and model-based estimates of yields and production, obtained from satellite imagery, are produced in July and August. Seeding intentions are collected in December.

Additional information

Your information may also be used by Statistics Canada for other statistical and research purposes.

Authority

This information is collected under the authority of the Statistics Act, Revised Statutes of Canada, 1985, Chapter S-19.

Completion of this questionnaire is a legal requirement under this act.

Purpose

The purpose of the field crop surveys is to obtain information on seeded and harvested field crop areas, average yields, production and on-farm stocks at strategic times over the course of a typical crop cycle, which ranges from spring to late fall. Therefore, the field crop surveys are conducted in June, November and December. Your information may also be used by Statistics Canada for other statistical and research purposes.

Confidentiality

By law, Statistics Canada is prohibited from releasing any information it collects that could identify any person, business, or organization, unless consent has been given by the respondent, or as permitted by the Statistics Act. Statistics Canada will use the information from this survey for statistical purposes only.

Data-sharing agreements

To reduce respondent burden, Statistics Canada has entered into data-sharing agreements with provincial and territorial statistical agencies and other government organizations, which have agreed to keep the data confidential and use them only for statistical purposes. Statistics Canada will only share data from this survey with those organizations that have demonstrated a requirement to use the data.

Section 11 of the Statistics Act provides for the sharing of information with provincial and territorial statistical agencies that meet certain conditions. These agencies must have the legislative authority to collect the same information, on a mandatory basis, and the legislation must provide substantially the same provisions for confidentiality and penalties for disclosure of confidential information as the Statistics Act. Because these agencies have the legal authority to compel businesses to provide the same information, consent is not requested and businesses may not object to the sharing of the data.

For this survey, there are Section 11 agreements with the provincial statistical agencies of Newfoundland and Labrador, Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Quebec, Ontario, Manitoba, Saskatchewan, Alberta and British Columbia. The shared data will be limited to information pertaining to business establishments located within the jurisdiction of the respective province.

Section 12 of the Statistics Act provides for the sharing of information with federal, provincial or territorial government organizations. Under Section 12, you may refuse to share your information with any of these organizations by writing a letter of objection to the Chief Statistician and returning it with the completed questionnaire. Please specify the organizations with which you do not want to share your data.

For this survey, there are Section 12 agreements with the Prince Edward Island statistical agency, the Ontario Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs as well as with the Manitoba Department of Agriculture.

For agreements with provincial and territorial government organizations, the shared data will be limited to information pertaining to business establishments located within the jurisdiction of the respective province or territory.

Record linkage

To enhance the data from this survey and to minimize the reporting burden, Statistics Canada may combine it with information from other surveys or from administrative sources.

Security of emails and faxes

Statistics Canada advises you that there could be a risk of disclosure during facsimile or email. However upon receipt, Statistics Canada will provide the guaranteed level of protection afforded all information collected under the authority of the Statistics Act.
Note: Our online questionnaires are secure, there is no risk of data interception when responding to Statistics Canada online surveys.
