Thank you for your cooperation.

Reasons why we ask the questions

Steps A and B and question 1 are used to collect contact information and determine who should be included on the questionnaire. They help us ensure that we have counted everyone we need to count and that no one is counted twice.

Questions 2 to 7 provide information about the living arrangements of people in Canada, the family size, the number of children living with one parent or two parents, and the number of people who live alone. This information is used for planning social programs, such as Old Age Security and the Canada Child Benefit. It is also used by municipalities to plan a variety of services such as day care centres, schools, police, fire protection and residences for seniors.

Questions 8 to 10 are used to provide a profile of the linguistic diversity of Canada's population. This information is used to estimate the need for services in English and French, and to better understand the current state and the evolution of Canada's various language groups.

Question 11 provides information on the number of people with Canadian military experience. Governments will use this information to develop programs and services to meet the changing needs of the Veteran population.

Questions 12 to 17 collect information in accordance with the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms to support education programs in English and French in Canada.

    The law protects what you tell us

    The confidentiality of your responses is protected by law. All Statistics Canada employees have taken an oath of secrecy. Your personal information cannot be given to anyone outside Statistics Canada without your consent. This is your right.

    Canadian COVID-19 Antibody and Health Survey (CCAHS) - Privacy impact assessment summary

    Introduction

    Statistics Canada is conducting the Canadian COVID-19 Antibody and Health Survey (CCAHS) from November 2020 to March 2021. This survey collects health data on the current COVID-19 pandemic by asking selected participants to complete an electronic questionnaire and provide a blood sample from a self-administered finger prick (dried blood spot sample). This voluntary survey will be sent to approximately 48,000 Canadians, aged 1 and over, across the provinces and territories. It is expected that approximately 20,000 respondents will complete the entire survey (questionnaire and blood sample).

    All processes of the CCAHS have been reviewed and approved by the Health Canada/Public Health Agency of Canada Research Ethics Board to ensure that internationally recognized ethical standards for human research are met and maintained.

    Objective

    A privacy impact assessment for the CCAHS was conducted to determine if there were any privacy, confidentiality or security issues with this survey and to make recommendations to resolve or mitigate any issues.

    Description

    This survey was developed in consultation with the COVID-19 Immunity Task Force (CITF). The CITF is funded by the Government of Canada and is composed of members from various domains, including universities, hospitals and the public health sector. The CITF was created to support the development and implementation of population-based serological studies (using blood tests) on the SARS-CoV-2 virus in order to better understand the impact of the pandemic in Canada.

    Results from this survey will provide important information on the health status of Canadians during the COVID-19 pandemic, including an estimate of the prevalence of infection from SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19. This survey will also provide a platform to explore new measurement techniques, as this is the first time that self-administered blood samples are being collected from a nationally-representative sample of Canadians.

    Risk Area Identification and Categorization

    The PIA identifies the level of potential risk (level 1 is the lowest level of potential risk and level 4 is the highest) associated with the following risk areas:

    Risk Area Identification and Categorization
      Risk scale

    a) Type of program or activity

    Program or activity that does not involve a decision about an identifiable individual.

    		 1

    b) Type of personal information involved and context

    Sensitive personal information, including detailed profiles, allegations or suspicions and bodily samples, or the context surrounding the personal information is particularly sensitive.

    		 4

    c) Program or activity partners and private sector involvement

    Private sector organizations, international organizations or foreign governments

    		 4

    d) Duration of the program or activity

    One-time program or activity

    		 1

    e) Program population

    The program's use of personal information is not for administrative purposes. Information is collected for statistical purposes, under the authority of the Statistics Act.

    		 N/A

    f) Personal information transmission

    The personal information is transmitted using wireless technologies.

    		 4

    g) Technology and privacy

    The CCAHS does not require the implementation of new technology or modifications to legacy systems to support the creation, collection or handling of personal information.

    h) Potential risk that in the event of a privacy breach, there will be an impact on the individual or employee.

    There is a very low risk for a breach of any personal information being disclosed without proper authorization. The impact on the individual would be high, as it could negatively affect their reputation because of the stigmatization related to certain health conditions or illnesses.

    Conclusion

    This assessment of the CCAHS did not identify any privacy risks that cannot be managed using existing Statistics Canada safeguards and procedures, as well as those in place at the various laboratories being used. Any remaining risks are either negligible or are such that Statistics Canada is prepared to accept and manage.

    Introduction

    The Access to Information Act establishes the principle that the general public has the right to access information controlled by federal government institutions, and that exceptions should be limited and specific.

    The Annual Report on the Administration of the Access to Information Act is prepared and submitted, in accordance with section 72 of the Act, and covers the period from April 1, 2019, to March 31, 2020. The report is tabled in Parliament.

    Due to the exceptional measures taken to curb the spread of COVID-19 and to protect federal employees, Statistics Canada employees have been operating with significantly-reduced on-site workforces since March 16, 2020.

    Administration of the Access to Information Act

    By virtue of section 24 of the Access to Information Act, which is a mandatory provision, information collected under the Statistics Act, and protected by section 17 of that Act, cannot be made available to anyone attempting to obtain it using the Access to Information Act. This exception enables the Agency to continue giving a clear and unqualified assurance to its respondents that the confidentiality provisions of the Statistics Act are preserved by the Access to Information Act.

    The administration of the access to information legislation within Statistics Canada and the Access to Information and Privacy Coordinator for the Agency is the responsibility of the Director of the Office of Privacy Management and Information Coordination who is also the ATIP Coordinator.

    Organization and mandate of Statistics Canada

    Statistics Canada's mandate derives primarily from the Statistics Act. The Act requires that the Agency collect, compile, analyze and publish statistical information on the economic, social, and general conditions of the country and its citizens. The Act also requires that Statistics Canada co-ordinate the national statistical system, specifically to avoid duplication in the information collected by government. To this end, the Chief Statistician may enter into joint data-collection or data-sharing agreements with provincial and territorial statistical agencies, as well as with federal, provincial, and territorial government departments pursuant to provisions of the Act.

    The Statistics Act specifically requires Statistics Canada to conduct a Census of Population and a Census of Agriculture every five years. The Act also gives the Agency substantial powers to request information for statistical purposes through surveys of Canadian businesses and households. Under the Act, the Chief Statistician determines whether a survey will be mandatory or voluntary. Statistics Canada has generally made voluntary household data collection other than the Census of Population and the Labour Force Survey, as the latter produces key economic data. The Census of Agriculture and most other business surveys are mandatory. Refusal to participate in a mandatory survey is subject to legal penalties.

    By law, Statistics Canada can also access administrative records, including personal and business tax data, credit information, customs declarations, and birth and death records. Such records are critical sources of statistical information that enable the Agency to reduce reporting burden on businesses and individual respondents. Statistics Canada is considered a leader among the world's statistical agencies in reducing reporting burden by using administrative data.

    These mechanisms help Statistics Canada fulfill its commitment to ensuring that Canadians have all the key information on Canada's economy, society and environment that they require to function effectively as citizens and decision makers in a rapidly evolving world.

    Delegation Order

    The delegation order exercises the powers and functions of the Minister as the head of a government institution, pursuant to section 73 of the Access to Information Act. The current detailed list of authorities under the Access to Information Act was formally delegated by the Minister of Industry (Appendix A) as of November 2017 and provides full delegated authority to the Director of the Office of Privacy Management and Information Coordination and the Chief, Statistical Agreements, Licensing and Legislation Section.

    Resources

    The Access to Information and Privacy (ATIP) Office operates within an allocation of 2.08 persons/year. The Director of Office of Privacy Management and Information Coordination has been delegated all the responsibilities. An Access to Information and Privacy Project Manager and a Senior Access to Information and Privacy analyst are assigned on a full-time basis to this responsibility. Two additional analysts were hired to join the Access to Information and Privacy Office, during the reporting period.

    Statistical report

    The statistical report provides aggregate data on the application of the Access to Information Act (Appendix B). This information is made public annually in an Information about Programs and Information Holdings (formerly Info Source) Bulletin and is included with the annual report.

    Implementation: Access to Information

    Disposition of requests completed during reporting period

    • Fully disclosed: 24
    • Partially disclosed: 43
    • Nothing disclosed: 21
    • No records exist: 38
    • Abandoned: 7
    • Transferred: 1
    • Total: 134

    Access to Information requests

    During the reporting period, from April 1, 2019, to March 31, 2020, Statistics Canada received 141 new access to information requests. In addition, 42 requests were carried forward from the previous reporting period, for a total of 183 requests. Of the total, 134 requests were completed; leaving 49 to be carried forward to the next reporting period.

    Media and the public were the largest client groups, as they represented 94 of the 141 requests that were received during the reporting period.

    For the completed requests, all records were either disclosed in full or in part for 67 requests, the information was fully exempted/excluded for 21 requests, no records existed for 38 requests, 7 requests were abandoned by the requestors.

    In responding to the formal access to information requests, approximately 5,000 pages were reviewed and more than 3,700 pages were released. A total of 42 requestors received information electronically on CD-ROM, and the rest were provided in paper format.

    The following table shows the latest five-year trend of the Agency's processing of access to information requests.

    Statistics Canada processing of access to information requests, 2012/2013 - 2018/2018
    Fiscal Year Requests Received Requests Completed Number of Pages Processed Number of Pages Released
    2019/2020 141 134 5,031 3,748
    2018/2019 154 128 6,020 5,467
    2017/2018 115 116 10,254 7,222
    2016/2017 222 212 12,571 10,026
    2015/2016 146 144 11,365 4,542

    Types of records requested

    The substance of the requests covered the entire range of matters pertaining to Statistics Canada's role and included:

    • data from statistical programs or background information relating to statistical programs and information on the availability of data from standard dissemination tables;
    • records related to the administration of the Agency (most records were released with minimal exemptions);
    • census information;
    • IT security policies, procedures and techniques;
    • clients wishing to access their personal information;
    • requests from trustees or estate administrators.

    In this last case, the regulations permit duly authorized representatives to act on behalf of a minor or an incompetent person to administer their affairs or estate. To do so, the trustees and estate administrators seek personal information from the census or from 1940 national registration records of deceased individuals, minors, or dependent adults. In the case of the deceased, the administrator of the estate may exercise these rights, but only for the purposes of estate administration.

    Other requests

    From April 1, 2019, to March 31, 2020, Statistics Canada also received 103 Access to Information Act consultation requests from other departments. The Agency was asked to review 2,592 pages of information. The Access to Information and Privacy Office processed 103 of the consultation requests this fiscal year.  Forty-eight (48) consultations were completed within 1-15 days, seventeen (17) consultations were completed within 16-30 days, twenty-nine (29) consultations were completed within 31-60 days, seven (7) were completed within 61-120 days and two (2) were completed within 121-180 days. Five (5) consultations have been carried forward to the next reporting period.

    Summaries of completed Access to Information Act requests are available on the “Open Government Portal”. Requests for copies of these completed requests, as well as requests not processed under the Act, are classified as informal requests. This past fiscal year, 13 requests were processed informally, totalling approximately 764 documents.

    The ATIP Office acted as a resource for Statistics Canada officials, offering advice and guidance on the provisions under the legislation. The office was consulted on the disclosure and collection of data on a wide range of matters, including:

    • publications to be posted on the open government portal;
    • proactive disclosure on travel and hospitality;
    • Management Accountability Framework assessments;
    • security of information;
    • reviews of audits to be posted on the Internet;
    • reviews of parliamentary questions and responses;
    • updates to the ATIP internet and intranet sites;
    • reviews of and updates to ATIP business practices and procedures.

    Trends in the disposition of completed requests

    The disposition of the 134 requests completed in 2019/2020 was as follows:

    • 24 were fully disclosed (18%)
    • 43 were partially disclosed (32%)
    • 21 were exempt/excluded in entirety (16%)
    • 7 were abandoned by applicants (5%)
    • 38 information did not exist (29%)

    In 2019/2020 the number of requests completed has increased to 134 for an average of about 147 over the last five years.

    Completion time and extensions

    All completed requests in 2019/20 were processed as prescribed by the Act and within the time required for all of them. Several factors contributed to Statistics Canada's timely response rate over the past year, information sessions with officials, and a streamlined delegation order.

    The requests were completed as follows:

    • 62 within 1 to 15 days (46%)
    • 28 within 16 to 30 days (21%)
    • 11 within 31 to 60 days (8%)
    • 9 within 61 to 120 days (7%)
    • 19 within 121 to 180 days (14%)
    • 5 within 181 to 365 days (4%)

    Out of the 134 requests processed, an extension was taken in 37 cases either for interference with operations of the department, to consult with other federal institutions, and/or to consult with Legal Services for Cabinet confidences.

    Exemptions and exclusions invoked

    The Access to Information Act allows and in some case requires certain data to not be released. In 2019/2020 the following sections of the Act were invoked:

    • Section 15(1) – International Affairs (1)
    • Section 16(1)(c) – Records containing information pertaining to ongoing investigations (2)
    • Section 16(2)(a) – Records containing information pertaining to criminal methods or techniques (1)

    • Section 19 – Records containing personal information (23)
    • Section 20 – Records containing third-party business information (29)
    • Section 21 – Records containing information relating to internal decision-making (20)
    • Section 22 – Records containing information relating to testing procedures, tests and audits (2)
    • Section 24 – Records that have a statutory prohibition against disclosure (1)
    • Section 69 – Cabinet Confidences (12)

    Fees

    Application fees are applied as described in the Access to Information Act. During the reporting period, $590 was collected in application fees. There were no search fees and no fees were collected for reproduction and preparation time. The Agency waived $115 worth of fees, specifically application fees in cases where the requested information was, or was to be, published or could have been obtained through a custom data request where fees apply. Fees were also waived for those individuals who were making a request for their own personal information.

    Costs

    During 2019/2020, the ATIP Office incurred an estimated $181,430 in salary costs and $3,539 in administrative costs to administer the Access to Information Act.

    Training initiatives for Access to Information

    In 2019/2020, the Access to Information and Privacy (ATIP) Office began developing a formal training program for all staff across the Agency, which was expected to begin April 2020.  Informal one-on-one training was made available to all staff within the Agency, until such time as the formal training is implemented.  The informal training assists staff in understanding their obligations under the Act, as well as informing them about policies and directives related to information at Statistics Canada.

    Policies, guidelines and procedures

    The ATIP Office has a variety of tools in place to ensure that ATIP contacts are well informed about their roles and responsibilities for coordinating ATIP requests. These tools include checklists on the steps to follow when providing records for access to information requests and on the availability of the ATIP team throughout the process.

    In 2019/2020, no new or revised governing instruments related to ATI were implemented at Statistics Canada.

    Complaints and investigations

    There were three complaints lodged against Statistics Canada with the Office of the Information Commissioner of Canada during the current reporting period.  Two complaints pertained to the existence of records, and one complaint pertained to an extension.  The Office of the Information Commissioner deemed the complaint pertaining to the extension as well-founded.  One complaint was settled by agreement between parties, and the other has not yet been resolved.

    Monitoring of the requests

    At Statistics Canada, the ATIP Office processes and monitors requests by registering them in a comprehensive system known as Privasoft – Case Management. An acknowledgment of the request and of the application fee of $5.00 is sent to the client and a retrieval form is forwarded to the relevant program area (Office of Primary Interest (OPI)). If the OPI and/or the ATIP Office need to clarify the request, only the ATIP Office contacts the client, unless prior approval is provided by the client. Client names are always kept confidential.

    The retrieval form provided to the OPI was created by the ATIP Office at Statistics Canada and is based upon the Policy on Access to Information and the Directive on the Administration of Access to Information from the Treasury Board Secretariat of Canada. The form includes the text of the request, the name of the ATIP Officer and his/her phone number, and the date by which records are required (normally 5 to 10 days). It is noted on the form that the ATIP Office is required to report annually on the administrative costs related to requests and thus information is needed on the level(s) and group(s) of those involved in the retrieval, the amount of time spent working on the request (this includes time for search, retrieval, internal review (relevant or not to the request) and photocopying). The individuals providing the records are asked to identify any records which may be sensitive in nature (e.g., legal issues, Cabinet confidences, personal information, company information, advice to the Minister), which may require consultations, and/or which may generate media interest. The Director or Director General of the program area sign-off the form.

    The ATIP Office assists the program areas with the retrieval of records from day one. As 5 to 10 days are allowed for the retrieval, a follow-up is made on the fifth day. If additional time is required for the retrieval, this is when the program area is to notify the ATIP Office. An additional 1 to 5 days may be granted depending on the amount of work remaining. Once the documents are received from the OPI, the ATIP Office ensures the form is duly completed and that it has been signed by the appropriate manager. The ATIP Office then takes 5 to 10 days to review and process the records. If sensitive issues are identified in the submitted materials, 1-3 days prior to the release of the final version to the client, an e-mail is sent to Strategic Communications and Outreach Branchand to any other relevant programs to inform them of the release. The OPI and management are very aware of the importance of ATIP requests.

    Product Definitions

    Agricultural Biomass Residues. Agricultural biomass includes living and recently dead biological materials from plant or animal.

    Biodiesel Fuel (FAME). It is a liquid fuel that is comprised of at least one mono-alkyl ester produced from one or more renewable fuel feedstocks in reaction with an alcohol reactant and is suitable for use in a diesel engine. It is also known as fatty acid methyl esters (FAME) and is made from renewable fuel feedstocks.

    Cereal Grains. Cereal Grains are wheat, corn, rye, barley, oats, and triticale.

    Dried Distillers Grains (DDGS). They are nutrient and protein rich co-products from dry-milled ethanol production andcontain primarily unfermented grain residues (protein, fibre, fat) that has been dried to 10-12% moisture.

    Forestry Biomass Residues. Forest biomass residues are used or can be used for energy production. These include firewood, forest residues from thinning and felling, debris accumulated from clearing the forest floor to prevent forest fires, and any other by-products of the lumber industry.

    Fuel Ethanol (denatured). An anhydrous alcohol (ethanol with less than 1% water) intended for gasoline blending that is produced from one or more renewable fuel feedstocks.

    Glycerol/Glycerine. The glycerol backbone is found in many lipids which are known as glycerides and is a by-product of the biodiesel/FAME manufacturing process.

    Industrial Ethanol (including Food Grade). Ethanol that is produced for use in the food industry and other non-food industrial applications.

    Other Biomass Residues Feedstocks. By-products, residues or waste streams from other industrial processes not found within agriculture or forestry.

    Renewable Diesel Fuel (HDRD/HVO). Hydrogenation-derived renewable diesel (HDRD) or hydrogenated vegetable oil (HVO) is a diesel substitute that can be derived from renewable fuel feedstocks.

    Wet Distillers Grains with Solubles (WDGS). Nutrient and protein rich co-products from the fermentation of corn starch to ethanolwhichcontain primarily unfermented grain residues (protein, fibre, fat) and up to 70% moisture.

    Distiller's corn oil. Distiller's corn oil is a co-product of the ethanol production process. It is used as feedstock for biodiesel production."

    Other co-products. Co-products are desirable secondary goods that are generated during the manufacturing process and can be sold or reused profitably. They might also be products that are usually manufactured together or sequentially because of product or process similarities.

    Methanol. The simplest form of alcohol. A light, colorless liquid similar to ethanol however, methanol is much more toxic. It is frequently used as a denaturant additive for ethanol manufactured for industrial purposes.

    Municipal solid waste. Municipal Solid Waste refers to recyclables and compostable materials, as well as garbage from homes, businesses, institutions, and construction and demolition sites. It consists of everyday items we use and then throw away, such as product packaging, grass clippings, furniture, clothing, bottles, food scraps, newspapers, appliances, paint, and batteries.

    Why do we conduct this survey?

    This survey is conducted by Statistics Canada in order to collect the necessary information to support the Integrated Business Statistics Program (IBSP). This program combines various survey and administrative data to develop comprehensive measures of the Canadian economy.

    The statistical information from the IBSP serves many purposes, including:

    • Obtaining information on the supply of and/or demand for energy in Canada
    • Enabling governmental agencies to fulfill their regulatory responsibilities in regards to public utilities
    • Enabling all levels of government to establish informed policies in the energy area
    • Assisting the business community in the corporate decision-making process.

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

    Your participation in this survey is required under the authority of the Statistics Act.

    Other important information

    Authorization to collect this information

    Data are collected under the authority of the Statistics Act, Revised Statutes of Canada, 1985, Chapter S-19.

    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.

    Record linkages

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

    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 and territorial statistical agencies of Newfoundland and Labrador, Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Québec, Ontario, Manitoba, Saskatchewan, Alberta, British Columbia and the Yukon. The shared data will be limited to information pertaining to business establishments located within the jurisdiction of the respective province or territory.

    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, specifying the organizations with which you do not want Statistics Canada to share your data and mailing it to the following address:

    Note: The described activity was assigned using the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS).

    Note: Press the help button (?) for additional information, including a detailed description of this activity complete with example activities and any applicable exclusions.

    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 units 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.

    The following is the detailed description including any applicable examples or exclusions for the classification currently associated with this business or organization.
