Definitions

Post-secondary institution:

Hospital:

A healthcare institution providing medical and surgical treatment and nursing care for sick or injured people.

Why have you been selected?

You have been selected because Statistics Canada uses a statistical method called sampling. It is an established way to determine characteristics of an entire population by surveying only part of the population.

Hospitals: Few hospitals are present in Canada and we need information from all of them to be able to produce accurate statistics on their energy use at the provincial/territorial level.

Post-secondary institutions: 98% of the post-secondary institutions in Canada were selected as part of a random sample to represent the population of post-secondary institutions.

It is important that all institutions answer to be able to produce accurate statistics on their energy use at the provincial/territorial level.

Who should complete this questionnaire?

This questionnaire should be completed by the person most knowledgeable about the energy consumption and usage of this post-secondary institution or hospital.

i.e., someone who has access to energy bills and knowledge about the structure and details of this institution (e.g., property manager, building manager, facilities and operations manager, building owner).

How do we protect your information?

Statistics Canada is committed to respecting the privacy of consultation participants. All personal information created, held or collected by the agency is protected in accordance with the Privacy Act.

Deadline for completing this questionnaire
