Social trends monitoring and reporting tools enable stronger connections

Connected citizens and a connected government equals a connected country, and social media and news media can play a big role.

Did you know that more than 31 million Canadians are active on social media? That's a lot of people that we can learn from, to better understand what Canadians think and want from government. If we are able to understand the people we serve, the products, services and information we provide are going to be that much better as a result.

All levels of government in Canada use social media in some capacity to reach citizens, including here at Statistics Canada. But it's not just about informing you of our latest data updates or survey, it's about engaging with you. It's about understanding what you're saying and responding to it.

Social media provides real-time insight into what Canadians are thinking, feeling and doing, and the pandemic put a new emphasis on its use. Throughout the stay-at-home orders, prolonged business closures and physical distancing requirements, it's more important than ever to make sure we take the pulse of what's important at any given time to Canadians and to ensure vital information is shared in a timely manner.

One of the ways Statistics Canada does this is through the use of reputable service provider tools (such as HootSuite and Meltwater). These tools help us understand your feedback on social media as well as engage with you. This allows us to provide timely answers to your questions on platforms such as Reddit, Twitter, LinkedIn, Facebook, Instagram and YouTube. Your feedback also gives us insights on how we can improve our product and services as well as communications. This is part of our user-centric approach and desire to better meet your needs and those of your fellow citizens.

Social media tools most recently helped Statistics Canada to better serve Canadians in the 2021 Census. From setting the record straight on misinformation, to answering your questions about how to complete the questionnaire online, social media has been invaluable throughout the 2021 Census.

For example, aggregate information we reviewed using our social media tools highlighted the need to clarify and expand on our communications about how Canadians could verify that Census enumerators working in the field were, indeed, who they said they were. It also helped us to identify various other forms of misinformation and scams about the Census so that we could address these issues head-on.

Thanks to the fast-paced nature of social media, we were able to act quickly and provide reliable and accurate information in these cases through interviews with news media, additional posts on social media, and even the creation of a new section on our website dedicated to protecting Canadians against misinformation.

Our social media tools also gave us insights on how Canadians wanted to see our communications and services become more engaging and inclusive, including the need to get our information out in alternative languages, formats and tools.

As Canada's trusted data steward, we take our responsibility to protect the privacy of Canadians very seriously. As with all our work, our use of social media tools is guided by our terms of use guidelines and safeguards and, in the case of Meltwater, a rigorous privacy impact assessment.

At the end of the day, Statistics Canada cares about what you think and what you have to say because your feedback helps us serve you better. We collect data to tell your unique stories and experiences as our nation grows and evolves, so the more connected we are, the better the data we collect, analyze and share and the better the outcomes for all the people of Canada.

Corrections Disaggregated Data and Analysis Strategy: Representation of Indigenous and Racialized Groups in Canada's Correctional Systems

Consultative Engagement Objectives

The Corrections Disaggregated Data and Analysis Strategy: Representation of Indigenous and Racialized Groups in Canada's Correctional Systems is being developed in response to growing interest in and demands for information and disaggregated data to better understand the experiences of Indigenous and racialized identity groups in terms of their interactions and involvement with correctional systems and the criminal justice system.

The consultative engagement helped us gain insight on how Statistics Canada can evaluate, enhance, and develop new indicators to better capture the over-representation of Indigenous peoples and racialized identity groups in the correctional system. To support the agency's objectives to provide accessible and quality data, Statistics Canada will develop a five-year, comprehensive plan to address survey development, respondent and partner relations, methods of data analysis, indicator development and data quality evaluations

Consultative Engagement Methodology

Partners and community organizations across the country were invited to participate in an engagement document and virtual group discussions in both official languages. Participants were asked to share their feedback and concerns in regards to the current and proposed measures of over-representation, methodology, and analytical products.

How Participants Got Involved

These consultative engagement initiatives are now closed.

Individuals who wished to obtain more information or to take part in group discussions on Corrections Disaggregated Data and Analysis Strategy: Representation of Indigenous and Racialized Groups in Canada's Correctional Systems were asked to contact Statistics Canada by sending an email to the following address: statcan.ccssengagement-mobilisationescc.statcan@statcan.gc.ca.

Please note that Statistics Canada selected participants for each group discussion to ensure that feedback was sought from a representative sample of the target population for the study. Not all applicants were asked to participate.

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

Results

Seven key recommendations were derived from the results of this consultative engagement initiative:

  1. Statistics Canada should develop population-based indicators and re-contact indicators using disaggregated data to measure representation of sub-populations in correctional systems;
  2. Statistics Canada should disaggregate its correctional services data as much as possible;
  3. Relationships between socio-economic and mental health issues and over-representation should be analyzed further;
  4. Statistics Canada should engage in data quality evaluations of the disaggregated data information collected;
  5. Statistics Canada should include appropriate context as part of the data analysis process, and work closely with affected populations when publishing disaggregated data;
  6. Statistics Canada should review options for dissemination to enhance data accessibility and use; and,
  7. Statistics Canada should regularly review its definitions, terminology and categorizations in order to ensure that the language used is appropriate and culturally-sensitive.

Statistics Canada thanks participants for their participation in this consultative engagement initiative. Their insights will help guide the agency in providing better disaggregated data on people's diverse experiences in the criminal justice system.
