Annual Capital Expenditures Survey: Revised Intentions for 2020

Why are we conducting this survey?

In order to better measure and understand the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on businesses and other organizations, this survey collects data on revised capital spending intentions in Canada. The information is used by federal and provincial government departments and agencies, trade associations, universities and international organizations for policy development and as a measure of regional economic activity.

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, Quebec, 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:

Chief Statistician of Canada

Capital Expenditures - Revised Intentions 2020

1. For 2020, what are this organization's intentions for non-residential capital expenditures?

Include:

  • non-residential buildings, engineering works, and machinery and equipment
  • new assets, renovations or betterments, and leasehold improvements
  • additions to work-in-progress accounts (capital) during the year.

Exclude land, residential buildings, acquisition of used assets from within Canada, mineral exploration and evaluation, software, and other intangible assets.

Non-residential capital expenditures are the gross expenditures on tangible fixed assets during the year for use in the operations of your organization or for lease or rent to others, excluding residential structures (housing or units with exclusive use of bathroom and kitchen facilities).

Fixed assets are also known as capital assets or property, plant and equipment. They are items with a useful life of more than one year and are not purchased for resale but rather for use in the entity's production of goods and services. Examples are buildings, vehicles, leasehold improvements, furniture and fixtures, machinery, and computer software.

Gross expenditures are expenditures before deducting proceeds from disposals and credits.

Include:

  • land improvements
  • servicing residential areas (powerlines, natural gas distribution)
  • buildings that have accommodation units without self contained or exclusive use of bathroom and kitchen facilities (e.g., student residences)
  • townsite facilities such as streets and sewers
  • additions to capital work in progress during the year
  • capital costs such as feasibility studies, architectural, legal, installation and engineering fees
  • capitalized interest charges on loans with which capital projects are financed
  • work done by own labour force (installation, renovations)
  • assets acquired as a lessee through either a capital or financial lease
  • assets acquired for lease to others as an operating lease (as lessor).

Exclude:

  • residential buildings (housing or units with self contained or exclusive use of bathroom and kitchen facilities)
  • acquisition of companies and associated assets
  • acquisition of used Canadian assets
  • transfers from capital work in progress to fixed assets accounts
  • property developed for sale and machinery or equipment acquired for sale (inventory)

Summary of Changes - Monthly Energy Transportation and Storage Survey

Activity on this program started: March 20, 2020

March 2020

As of reference month January 2020, the Monthly Oil and Other Liquid Petroleum Products Survey (MOPS) has been redesigned, including the expansion of the survey coverage, new content, new questionnaire, etc.

January 2020 saw the launch of the new Monthly Energy Transportation and Storage Survey (METSS) program which replaces MOPS. Two new tables have been added to replace Table 25-10-0056-01 – Canadian pipeline transport of oil and other liquid petroleum products, monthly:

  • Table 25-10-0075-01 – Crude oil and petroleum products inventories, held by domestic transporters, by product type, monthly; and
  • Table 25-10-0077-01 – Crude oil and petroleum products movements, by mode of transport and by product type, monthly

Content has changed to reflect the evolving petroleum industry. In addition to pipeline companies, rail and marine transportation companies are now in sample as well as an expanded product list. These data will be available in the future. The conceptual changes regarding the transition from MOPS to METSS includes a new methodology for estimates. METSS coverage was expanded to include pipeline-associated terminals that were not previously captured in the MOPS and therefore data users can expect estimates to generally be higher. As a result of these changes, the METSS estimates may not be comparable with the estimates available in the MOPS tables published prior to January 2020. Net variables such as deliveries to refineries and receipts from fields and plants have been removed. Data is now structured as gross receipts and deliveries.

Reporting for MOPS used a 'net receipt and delivery' methodology whereas the current METSS uses a 'gross receipt and delivery' methodology. The 'net receipt and delivery' concept for MOPS did not include (netted-out) the intermediary transactions to create final estimates whereas the 'gross receipt and delivery methodology' for METSS includes all intermediary receipts and delivery transactions to calculate final estimates. With the gross receipt methodology being used, pipeline receipt and delivery estimates will generally be higher.

For METSS, the province where the transaction originated is the 'shipping region' and the final destination of the product is included in the table as 'receiving region'. MOPS recorded transactions based on the final destination of the product (province of clearance). METSS currently reports transactions based on an origin-destination approach, meaning that there are two sides to each transaction, both of which are reported.

An example of how estimates will change under the new methodology: from a METSS perspective, crude oil loaded in Alberta, crossing Saskatchewan and ultimately crossing the Canada-US border from Manitoba would be counted as an export from Alberta into the US.  From a MOPS province of clearance perspective, this same scenario would result in the export figure being attributed to Manitoba since the crude oil crossed (cleared) the Canada-US border from Manitoba, despite the crude oil being loaded in Alberta.

This change in methodology between MOPS and METSS is the result of further leveraging a key administrative (Petrinex) dataset which allows for the collection of approximately 70% of pipelines in sample while significantly reducing respondent burden. The METSS program also allows for the Monthly Refined Petroleum Products Survey program to more accurately track inter-provincial movements of crude oil, petroleum products and renewable fuels across the country.

Reference Note – Correspondence Tables NOC 2016 Version 1.3 - SOC 2018 (US) / SOC 2018 (US) – NOC 2016 Version 1.3

Introduction

This reference note provides a brief introduction and reference for the Statistics Canada correspondence table between the Canadian National Occupational Classification (NOC) 2016 Version 1.3 and the American Standard Occupational Classification (SOC 2018) (US).

In general, correspondence tables are used in classification-related work to summarize the theoretical relationships between different classification systems.

National Occupational Classification (NOC) 2016 Version 1.3

The NOC has been developed and maintained as part of a collaborative partnership between Employment and Social Development Canada (ESDC) and Statistics Canada. The NOC is designed to classify occupational information from statistical surveys. It is also used in a range of contexts to compile, analyze and communicate information about occupations. Occupational information is of critical importance for the provision of labour market and career intelligence, skills development, occupational forecasting, labour supply and demand analysis, employment equity and numerous other programs and services.

The structure and format of the National Occupational Classification 2016 is based on a four-tiered hierarchical arrangement of occupational groups with successive levels of disaggregation, with broad occupational categories at the lowest level and unit groups at the highest level of disaggregation. There are 500 unit groups in the NOC 2016, with approximately 35,000 example job titles. Some titles are clearly occupations, such as librarian and chef, while others represent a range of jobs, such as furniture assembler and sawmill machine operator. These titles are used to describe the work performed by many individuals holding similar jobs within an occupational area. The list of titles in the NOC is not meant to be exhaustive, but attempts to cover the most commonly used and universally understood labels that identify work in the labour market.

More information on the NOC is available here: National Occupational Classification (NOC) 2016 Version 1.3.

Standard Occupational Classification (SOC) 2018 (US)

The Standard Occupational Classification system is used by the United States' federal agencies to classify workers and jobs into occupational categories for the purpose of collecting, calculating, analyzing or disseminating data. The most recent version used for this correspondence table is the SOC 2018 (US).

To facilitate classification and presentation of data, the SOC is organized into a tiered system with four levels, ranging from major groups to detailed occupations. There are, at the lowest level of specification, 867 detailed occupations. Detailed occupations with similar job duties, and in some cases, similar skills, education, and/or training, are grouped together in the SOC. Each worker is classified into only one of the 867 detailed occupations based on the tasks performed. The SOC, like the NOC, does not attempt to provide an exhaustive list of job titles, but attempts to cover the most commonly used and universally understood labels that identify work in the US labour market.

More information on the SOC is available here: Standard Occupational Classification (SOC) 2018 (US).

Introduction to Correspondence Tables

Correspondence tables are used in classification-related work to summarize the relationships between different classification systems. These tables relate the individual detailed classification items (e.g. classes) of the different systems, as well as the more aggregate (or "roll-up") levels of each system. Correspondence tables are also known as concordances, crosswalks, mappings, link tables or look-up tables.

In correspondence tables, the source (or object) classification is on the left-hand side of the table, while the target classification is on the right-hand side. Correspondence tables should be developed starting from the lowest level categories. Then, high-level links can be derived from the lower ones.

When building correspondence tables, various scenarios may be encountered. Classification items may match perfectly across classifications (one-to-one), or one classification item in the object classification may split into several classification items in the target classification (one-to-many); in other cases, two or more classification items in the object classification may link to one (many-to-one) or many classification items (many-to-many) in the target classification.

Types of correspondence tables

There are two main types of correspondence tables: Definitional and Empirical.

  • Definitional Correspondence Tables: These tables show relationships based on the definitions of the classification items subject to the correspondence process. For a given object class, all target classification items are identified that are wholly or partly synonymous. This is assessed by comparing the definitions and illustrative examples provided for each classification item, taking into account their full scope. Each example and each element of the definition must be assessed. This is sometimes referred to as working from the "granular level". Definitional correspondence tables are also referred to as classification correspondence tables, conceptual correspondence tables or theoretical correspondence tables. This is the type of correspondence table mainly developed for the purpose of standardization at Statistics Canada.
  • Empirical Correspondence Tables: These tables are also developed to establish relationships between classification items of two classification systems. They can be used to measure the significance of each of the links, based on actual data. They are also good tools to manage the one-to-many and many-to-many splits. They are usually a means of selecting key relationships when developing forced one-to-one correspondences. Empirical correspondences might also be referred to as statistical correspondence tables, though a definitional correspondence table can still be used for statistical purposes as well.

Uses of Correspondence Tables

Correspondence tables allow users to see the relationships between the classification items of the two systems. They are a convenient summary of the similarities and differences between two classifications.

Correspondence Tables Terms and Structure

Object Classification: The user is mapping from this classification. The object classification is the starting point. In the NOC to SOC correspondence table, NOC 2016 is considered as the object classification as the respective NOC classes are mapped to the SOC.

Target Classification: The user is mapping to this classification. In the NOC to SOC correspondence table, SOC 2018 (US) is considered as the target classification as all SOC classes, which are synonymous (partially or fully) with each NOC class, are identified.

Structure: Correspondence tables are typically presented with the object class on the left-hand side and the target class on the right.

Classification item: A classification item represents a category at a certain level within a statistical classification. It defines the content and the borders of the category. An object/unit can be classified to one and only one classification item at each level of a statistical classification.

Asterisk: An asterisk (*) is used to flag situations in which a single object classification item (left side of the correspondence table) corresponds to two or more target classification items (right side of the correspondence table). It is referred to as a "partial" flag.

Explanatory Notes: An explanatory note provides a short description of the nature of the overlap between the object and target classification item(s). It is required for many to one relationships as well as when the "partial" flag is used.

Good practice guidelines used when building this NOC to SOC Correspondence Table

  • All detailed classification items of both the object and target classifications must be present (100% mapped)
  • All relationships between those classification items must be known by (or summarized for) the correspondence table builder.
  • The names of all classification items must be available to the correspondence table builder.
  • For classifications with aggregate (or "roll-up") levels for which the numeric coding system involves removing the final digit from the more detailed codes, and doing so successively for each level of aggregation, higher levels are straightforward. For classifications that are not hierarchical in this way, the aggregation structure must be explicitly available to the correspondence table builder.

Examples of elements of correspondence tables

This section provides four examples from the NOC – SOC correspondence table to demonstrate how to read the correspondence table. The first example shows a one-to-one relationship, the second example shows a one-to-many relationship, the third example shows a many-to-one relationship and the fourth example shows a many-to-many links with tables for both sides for illustration.

The correspondence examples are shown at the lowest level of both classifications, namely at the 4-digit level in NOC and the 6-digit level in SOC. The relationships between the two classifications can be simple or complex, with example 4 being one of the complex ones.

Example 1 - one-to-one relationship

In this example, a NOC classification item maps to one SOC classification item, their coverage of occupations being the same. All of the occupational duties in NOC 2234 are found in SOC 13-1051. This is a one-to-one relationship and therefore no explanatory note is required, and also, no asterisk is needed in the column "partial".

NOC 2016 Version 1.3 Partial SOC 2018 (US) * Explanatory notes
2234 Construction Estimators   13-1051 Construction Estimators  

Example 2 - One-to-many relationship

In this example, a NOC classification item maps to more than one SOC classification item. Each SOC item represents a part of the NOC item. This is a one-to-many relationship and therefore requires an asterisk (indicating a partial match) and an explanatory note to detail how the NOC classification item relates to each SOC classification item.

NOC 2016 Version 1.3 Partial SOC 2018 (US) * Explanatory notes
1123 Professional occupations in advertising, marketing and public relations * 13-1011 Agents and Business Managers of Artists, Performers, and Athletes Only agents, publicists, promoters, representatives and managers of performers, athletes, writers and other talented individuals
1123 Professional occupations in advertising, marketing and public relations * 13-1131 Fundraisers Only professionals specializing in fundraising
1123 Professional occupations in advertising, marketing and public relations * 13-1161 Market Research Analysts and Marketing Specialists Only professionals specializing in marketing, including advertising specialists and consultants
1123 Professional occupations in advertising, marketing and public relations * 27-3031 Public Relations Specialists Only professionals specializing in communication, media and public relations and publicity
1123 Professional occupations in advertising, marketing and public relations * 41-3011 Advertising Sales Agents Only professionals specializing in advertising accounts management

The asterisk (*) is used to indicate that each classification item of the target classification (SOC 2018 (US)) represents a portion of the classification item of the object classification (NOC). In this example above, the occupations represented in NOC code 1123 are split between 5 classification items of the SOC 2018 (US); which means these 5 SOC categories are merged into one NOC category.

The explanatory note provides a short description of the nature of the link between the NOC and SOC classification items. It is important to note that occupational example titles may vary from one classification to the other. As a result, in the example 2 table, all titles related to each SOC category (e.g., 27-3031 for professionals specializing in communication, media and public relations and publicity), are also occupations included in 27-3031 and therefore are linked to that SOC code which is linked to NOC code 1123.

Example 3 – Many-to-one relationship

In this example, two or more NOC classification items map to one SOC classification item. An explanatory note is required to detail how the different NOC classification items relate to the SOC classification item.

NOC 2016 Version 1.3 Partial SOC 2018 (US) * Explanatory notes
2143 Mining Engineers   17-2151 Mining and Geological Engineers, Including Mining Safety Engineers Only mining engineers
2144 Geological Engineers   17-2151 Mining and Geological Engineers, Including Mining Safety Engineers Only geological engineers
7313 Heating, refrigeration and air conditioning mechanics   49-9021 Heating, Air Conditioning, and Refrigeration Mechanics and Installers Only mechanics and installers for heating, refrigeration and air conditioning
7331 Oil and solid fuel heating mechanics   49-9021 Heating, Air Conditioning, and Refrigeration Mechanics and Installers Only mechanics and installers for oil and solid fuel heating

The explanatory note provides a short description of the nature of the link between the NOC and SOC classification items. It is important to note that occupational example titles may vary from one classification to the other. As a result, in example 3 table, all related titles to these NOC classification items are also included in the links to that SOC code. The NOC to SOC correspondence is not mapped in this fashion. This example is provided to demonstrate many-to-one relationships within the NOC – SOC correspondence, and how it would be displayed, if sorted in this manner.

Example 4 – Many-to-many relationship

In this example, two or more NOC classification items map to many (two or more) SOC classification items, and vice versa. An explanatory note is required to detail how the different NOC classification items relate to the SOC classification items. The two tables below illustrate many-to-many relationships between NOC and SOC. We use SOC code 11-9111 to illustrate the many-to-many relationships showing that it is linked to 4 NOC codes (0014, 0114, 0311 and 0632), which in turn are linked to other SOC codes. Further, each individual SOC 2018 (US) code listed in the second table below could also be linked to different NOC 2016 codes than those shown on that table. One case to notice is the NOC 0311 which is only linked to SOC code 11-9111 therefore no asterisk is used in the second table below. In fact, the asterisk is not used in that case because the object classification is the one driving the use of partials; therefore, the asterisk is used on the reverse correspondence table (SOC 2018 (US) to NOC 2016).

Developing the NOC 2016 – SOC 2018 (US) correspondence table

The correspondence table between NOC 2016 and SOC 2018 (US) relates the individual detailed classification items of the two systems – notably leading statements, main duties (job descriptions) and occupational qualifications and requirements, which in turn informs mappings of occupational title examples. For this correspondence table, analysis of occupations was completed for NOC 2016 at the 4 digit level (the lowest level and detailed description level), for SOC 2018 (US) at the 6 digit level (lowest level with occupation leading statements) and at the O*NET-SOC 8 digit detailed descriptions level Footnote 1. In addition, the crosswalk O*NET-SOC 2010 to SOC 2018 (US) was used to link the O*Net to SOC 2010 with the SOC 2018 (US).

Key considerations when using the NOC 2016 –SOC 2018 (US) correspondence table:

  • The NOC 2016 –SOC 2018 (US) correspondence table is definitional and based on theoretical links.
  • Each national occupational classification, NOC and SOC, structure encompasses the whole occupational universe for that country.
  • Each national occupational classification provides a non-exhaustive list of occupational example titles at the lowest aggregate level.
  • Occupational examples titles vary from one country's occupational classification to another.
  • To aid in creating this correspondence table, the scope or function of an occupation was used to determine the relationship.
  • In keeping with good practice and broader usage, there is a 100% mapping between the two classifications at the lowest level for each of their classification items.

Correspondence: Standard Occupational Classification (SOC) 2018 (US) to National Occupational Classification (NOC) 2016 Version 1.3

Asterisk: An asterisk (*) is used to flag situations in which a single object classification item (left side of the correspondence table) corresponds to two or more target classification items (right side of the correspondence table). It is referred to as a "partial" flag.

Why are we conducting 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:

  • calculating each province and territory's fair share of federal-provincial transfer payments for health, education and social programs
  • establishing government programs to assist businesses
  • assisting the business community in negotiating contracts and collective agreements
  • supporting the government in making informed decisions about fiscal, monetary and foreign exchange policies
  • indexing social benefit programs and determining tax brackets
  • enabling academics and economists to analyze the economic performance of Canadian industries and to better understand rapidly evolving business environments.

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:

Chief Statistician of Canada
Statistics Canada

4. Verify or provide the current main activity of the business or organization identified by the legal and operating name above.

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

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.

Analytical Guide - Canadian Perspectives Survey Series 1: Impacts of COVID-19

1.0 Description

The Canadian Perspectives Survey Series (CPSS) is a set of short, online surveys beginning in March 2020 that will be used to collect information on the knowledge and behaviours of residents of the 10 Canadian provinces. All surveys in the series will be asked of Statistics Canada's probability panel. The probability panel for the CPSS is a new pilot project initiated in 2019. An important goal of the CPSS is to directly collect data from Canadians in a timely manner in order to inform policy makers and be responsive to emerging data needs. The CPSS is designed to produce data at a national level (excluding the territories).

The survey program is sponsored by Statistics Canada. Each survey in the CPSS is cross sectional. Participating in the probability panel and the subsequent surveys of the CPSS is voluntary.

The first survey of the CPSS is CPSS1 – Impacts of COVID-19. It was administered from March 29, 2020 until April 3, 2020.

Any question about the survey, the survey series, the data or its use should be directed to:

2.0 Survey methodology

Target and survey population

The target population for the Canadian Perspectives Survey Series (CPSS) is residents of the 10 Canadian provinces 15 years of age or older.

The frame for surveys of the CPSS is Statistics Canada's pilot probability panel. The probability panel was created by randomly selecting a subset of the Labour Force Survey (LFS) respondents. Therefore the survey population is that of the LFS, with the exception that full-time members of the Canadian Armed Forces are included. Excluded from the survey's coverage are: persons living on reserves and other Aboriginal settlements in the provinces; the institutionalized population, and households in extremely remote areas with very low population density. These groups together represent an exclusion of less than 2% of the Canadian population aged 15 and over.

The LFS sample is drawn from an area frame and is based on a stratified, multi-stage design that uses probability sampling. The LFS uses a rotating panel sample design. In the provinces, selected dwellings remain in the LFS sample for six consecutive months. Each month about one-sixth of the LFS sampled dwellings are in their first month of the survey, one-sixth are in their second month of the survey, and so on. These six independent samples are called rotation groups.

For the probability panel used for the CPSS, four rotation groups from the LFS were used from the provinces: the rotation groups answering the LFS for the last time in April, May, June and July of 2019. From these households, one person aged 15+ was selected at random to participate in the CPSS - Sign-Up. These individuals were invited to Sign-Up for the CPSS. Those agreeing to join the CPSS were asked to provide an email address. Participants from the Sign-Up that provided valid email addresses formed the probability panel. The participation rate to the panel was approximately 23%. The survey population for all surveys of the CPSS is the probability panel participants. Participants of the panel are 15 years or older as of July 31, 2019.

Sample Design and Size

The sample design for surveys of the CPSS is based on the sample design of the CPSS – Sign-Up, the method used to create the pilot probability panel. The raw sample for the CPSS – Sign-Up had 31, 896 randomly selected people aged 15+ from responding LFS households completing their last interview of the LFS in April to July of 2019. Of these people, 31,626 were in-scope at the time of collection for the CPSS - Sign-Up in January to March 2020. Of people agreeing to participate in the CPSS, that is, those joining the panel, 7,242 had a valid email address. All panel participants are invited to complete the surveys of the CPSS.

3.0 Data collection

CPSS – Sign-Up

The CPSS- Sign-Up survey used to create Statistics Canada's probability panel was conducted from January 15th, 2020 until March 15th, 2020. Initial contact was made through a mailed letter to the selected sample. The letter explained the purpose of the CPSS and invited respondents to go online, using their Secure Access Code to complete the Sign-Up form. Respondents opting out of joining the panel were asked their main reason for not participating. Those joining the panel were asked to verify basic demographic information and to provide a valid email address. Nonresponse follow-up for the CPSS-Sign-Up had a mixed mode approach. Additional mailed reminders were sent to encourage sampled people to respond. As well, email reminders (where an email address was available) and Computer Assisted Telephone Interview (CATI) nonresponse follow-up was conducted.

The application included a standard set of response codes to identify all possible outcomes. The application was tested prior to use to ensure that only valid question responses could be entered and that all question flows would be correctly followed. These measures ensured that the response data were already "clean" at the end of the collection process.

Interviewers followed a standard approach used for many StatCan surveys in order to introduce the agency. Selected persons were told that their participation in the survey was voluntary, and that their information would remain strictly confidential.

CPSS1 – Impacts of COVID-19

All participants to the pilot panel for the CPSS were sent an email invitation with a link to the survey CPSS1 – COVID 19 and a Secure Access Code to complete the survey online. Collection for the survey began on March 29, 2020. Reminder emails were sent on March 30th and April 1st. The application remained open until April 3rd, 2020.

3.1 Disclosure control

Statistics Canada is prohibited by law from releasing any data which would divulge information obtained under the Statistics Act that relates to any identifiable person, business or organization without the prior knowledge or the consent in writing of that person, business or organization. Various confidentiality rules are applied to all data that are released or published to prevent the publication or disclosure of any information deemed confidential. If necessary, data are suppressed to prevent direct or residual disclosure of identifiable data.

4.0 Data quality

Survey errors come from a variety of different sources. They can be classified into two main categories: non-sampling errors and sampling errors.

4.1 Non-sampling errors

Non-sampling errors can be defined as errors arising during the course of virtually all survey activities, apart from sampling. They are present in both sample surveys and censuses (unlike sampling error, which is only present in sample surveys). Non-sampling errors arise primarily from the following sources: nonresponse, coverage, measurement and processing.

4.1.1 Nonresponse

Nonresponse errors result from a failure to collect complete information on all units in the selected sample.

Nonresponse produces errors in the survey estimates in two ways. Firstly, non-respondents often have different characteristics from respondents, which can result in biased survey estimates if nonresponse bias is not fully corrected through weighting. Secondly, it reduces the effective size of the sample, since fewer units than expected answered the survey. As a result, the sampling variance increases and the precision of the estimate decreases. The response rate is calculated as follows:

[ Responding units / (Selected units – out-of-scope units) ] x 100%

The following table summarize the response rates experienced for the CPSS1 – Impacts of COVID-19. Response rates are broken down into two stages. Table 4.1.1a shows the take-up rates to the panel in the CPSS- Sign-Up and Table 4.1.1b shows the collection response rates for the survey CPSS1 - Impacts of COVID-19.

Respondents to CPSS1 – Impacts of COVID - 19 Collection Response Rate to CPSS1 – Impacts of COVID-19 Cumulative Response Rate
n 7,242 4,627 63.9% 14.6%

As shown in Table 4.1.1b, the collection response rate for the CPSS1 - Impacts of COVID-19 is 63.9%. However, when nonparticipation in the panel is factored in, the cumulative response rate to the survey is 14.6%. This cumulative response rate is lower than the typical response rates observed in social surveys conducted at Statistics Canada. This is due to the two stages of nonresponse (or participation) and other factors such as the single mode used for surveys of the CPSS (emailed survey invitations with a link to the survey for online self-completion), respondent fatigue from prior LFS response, the inability of the offline population to participate, etc.,.

Given the additional nonresponse experienced in the CPSS1 – Impacts of COVID-19 there is an increased risk of bias due to respondents being different than nonrespondents. For this reason, a small bias study was conducted. Please see Section 6.0 for the results of this validation.

4.1.2 Coverage errors

Coverage errors consist of omissions, erroneous inclusions, duplications and misclassifications of units in the survey frame. Since they affect every estimate produced by the survey, they are one of the most important type of error; in the case of a census they may be the main source of error. Coverage errors may cause a bias in the estimates and the effect can vary for different sub-groups of the population. This is a very difficult error to measure or quantify accurately.

For the CPSS, the population covered are those aged 15+ as of July 31, 2019. Since collection of the CPSS1 – Impacts of COVID-19 was conducted from March 29 – April 3 2020, there is an undercoverage of residents of the 10 provinces that turned 15 since July 31, 2019.    There is also undercoverage of those without internet access. This undercoverage is greater amongst those age 65 years and older.

4.1.3 Measurement errors

Measurement errors (or sometime referred to as response errors) occur when the response provided differs from the real value; such errors may be attributable to the respondent, the questionnaire, the collection method or the respondent's record-keeping system. Such errors may be random or they may result in a systematic bias if they are not random. It is very costly to accurately measure the level of response error and very few surveys conduct a post-survey evaluation.

4.1.4 Processing errors

Processing error is the error associated with activities conducted once survey responses have been received. It includes all data handling activities after collection and prior to estimation. Like all other errors, they can be random in nature, and inflate the variance of the survey's estimates, or systematic, and introduce bias. It is difficult to obtain direct measures of processing errors and their impact on data quality especially since they are mixed in with other types of errors (nonresponse, measurement and coverage).

4.2 Sampling errors

Sampling error is defined as the error that results from estimating a population characteristic by measuring a portion of the population rather than the entire population. For probability sample surveys, methods exist to calculate sampling error. These methods derive directly from the sample design and method of estimation used by the survey.

The most commonly used measure to quantify sampling error is sampling variance. Sampling variance measures the extent to which the estimate of a characteristic from different possible samples of the same size and the same design differ from one another. For sample designs that use probability sampling, the magnitude of an estimate's sampling variance can be estimated.

Factors affecting the magnitude of the sampling variance for a given sample size include:

  1. The variability of the characteristic of interest in the population: the more variable the characteristic in the population, the larger the sampling variance.
  2. The size of the population: in general, the size of the population only has an impact on the sampling variance for small to moderate sized populations.
  3. The response rate: the sampling variance increases as the sample size decreases. Since non-respondents effectively decrease the size of the sample, nonresponse increases the sampling variance.
  4. The sample design and method of estimation: some sample designs are more efficient than others in the sense that, for the same sample size and method of estimation, one design can lead to smaller sampling variance than another.

The standard error of an estimator is the square root of its sampling variance. This measure is easier to interpret since it provides an indication of sampling error using the same scale as the estimate whereas the variance is based on squared differences.

The coefficient of variation (CV) is a relative measure of the sampling error. It is defined as the estimate of the standard error divided by the estimate itself, usually expressed as a percentage (10% instead of 0.1). It is very useful for measuring and comparing the sampling error of quantitative variables with large positive values. However, it is not recommended for estimates such as proportions, estimates of change or differences, and variables that can have negative values.

It is considered a best practice at Statistics Canada to report the sampling error of an estimate through its 95% confidence interval. The 95% confidence interval of an estimate means that if the survey were repeated over and over again, then 95% of the time (or 19 times out of 20), the confidence interval would cover the true population value.

5.0 Weighting

The principle behind estimation in a probability sample such as those of the CPSS, is that each person in the sample "represents", besides himself or herself, several other persons not in the sample. For example, in a simple random 2% sample of the population, each person in the sample represents 50 persons in the population. In the terminology used here, it can be said that each person has a weight of 50.

The weighting phase is a step that calculates, for each person, his or her associated sampling weight. This weight appears on the microdata file, and must be used to derive estimates representative of the target population from the survey. For example, if the number of individuals who smoke daily is to be estimated, it is done by selecting the records referring to those individuals in the sample having that characteristic and summing the weights entered on those records. The weighting phase is a step which calculates, for each record, what this number is. This section provides the details of the method used to calculate sampling weights for the CPSS1 – Impacts of COVID-19.

The weighting of the sample for the CPSS1 – Impacts of COVID-19 has multiple stages to reflect the stages of sampling, participation and response to get the final set of respondents. The following sections cover the weighting steps to first create the panel weights, then the weighting steps to create the survey weights for CPSS1 – Impacts of COVID-19.

5.1 Creating the Panel Weights

Four consecutive rotate-out samples of households from the LFS were the starting point to form the panel sample of the CPSS. Since households selected from the LFS samples are the starting point, the household weights from the LFS are the first step to calculating the panel weights.

5.1.1 Household weights

Calculation of the Household Design Weights – HHLD_W0, HHLD_W1

The initial panel weights are the LFS subweights (SUBWT). These are the LFS design weights adjusted for nonresponse but not yet calibrated to population control totals. These weights form the household design weight for the panel survey (HHLD_W0).

Since only four rotate-outs were used, instead of the six used in a complete LFS sample, these weights were adjusted by a factor of 6/4 to be representative. The weights after this adjustment were called HHLD_W1.

Calibration of the Household Weights – HHLD_W2

Calibration is a step to ensure that the sum of weights within a certain domain match projected demographic totals. The SUBWT from the LFS are not calibrated, thus HHLD_W1 are also not calibrated. The next step is to make sure the household weights add up to the control totals by household size. Calibration was performed on HHLD_W1 to match control totals by province and household size using the size groupings of 1, 2, or 3+.

5.1.2 Person Panel weights

Calculate Person Design Weights – PERS_W0

One person aged 15 or older per household was selected for the CPSS – Sign-Up, the survey used to create the probability panel. The design person weight is obtained by multiplying HHLD_W2 by the number of eligible people in the dwelling (i.e. number of people aged 15 years and over).

Removal of Out of Scope Units – PERS_W1

Some units were identified as being out-of-scope during the CPSS – Sign-Up. These units were given a weight of PERS_W1 = 0. For all other units, PERS_W1 = PERS_W0. Persons with a weight of 0 are subsequently removed from future weight adjustments.

Nonresponse/Nonparticipation Adjustment – PERS_W2

During collection of the CPSS – Sign-Up, a certain proportion of sampled units inevitably resulted in nonresponse or nonparticipation in the panel. Weights of the nonresponding/nonparticipating units were redistributed to participating units. Units that did not participate in the panel had their weights redistributed to the participating units with similar characteristics within response homogeneity groups (RHGs).

Many variables from the LFS were available to build the RHG (such as employment status, education level, household composition) as well as information from the LFS collection process itself. The model was specified by province, as the variables chosen in the model could differ from one province to the other.

The following variables were kept in the final logistic regression model: education_lvl (education level variable with 10 categories), nameissueflag (a flag created to identify respondents not providing a valid name), elg_hhldsize (number of eligible people for selection in the household) and age_grp (age group of the selected person). RHGs were formed within provinces. An adjustment factor was calculated within each response group as follows:

Sum of weights of respondents and non respondentsSum of weights of respondents

The weights of the respondents were multiplied by this factor to produce the PERS_W2 weights, adjusted for panel nonparticipation. The nonparticipating units were dropped from the panel.

5.2 Creating the CPSS1 – Impact of COVID-19 weights

Surveys of the CPSS start with the sample created from the panel participants. The panel is comprised of 7,242 individuals, each with the nonresponse adjusted weight of PERS_W2.

Calculation of the Design Weights – COVID_W0, COVID_W1

The design weight is the person weight adjusted for nonresponse calculated for the panel participants (PERS_W2). No out-of-scope units were identified during the survey collection of CPSS1 – Impacts of COVID-19. Since all units were in-scope, COVID_W1=COVID_W0 and no units were dropped.

Nonresponse Adjustment – COVID_W2

Given that the sample for CPSS was formed by people having agreed to participate in a web panel, the response rates to the survey were relatively high. Additionally, the panel was designed to produce estimates at a national level, so sample sizes by province were not overly large. As a result, nonresponse was fairly uniform in many provinces. This resulted in having only one RHG in each of the Atlantic Provinces, as well as in Saskatchewan. For the other provinces, the RHGs were formed by education level and/or age group. An adjustment factor was calculated within each response group as follows:

Sum of weights of respondents and non respondentsSum of weights of respondents

The weights of the respondents were multiplied by this factor to produce the COVID_W2 weights, adjusted for survey response. The nonresponding units were dropped from the survey.

Trimming of Large Weights – COVID_W2_TRIMMED

Some weights were particularly large. In order to try to mitigate their effect on the variance, the largest weights were trimmed, using a technique called Winsorization, which identifies units with more influential weights. In total, 16 weights were trimmed from Quebec, Ontario, Alberta and British Columbia.

Calibration of Person-Level Weights – COVID_W3

Control totals were computed using LFS demography projection data. The control totals were by age group and sex by province. Since there were very few respondents in some categories (especially in the Atlantic Provinces), some collapsing was necessary. The impact of the collapsing is that demographic totals calculated by the sum of weights do not match the projected control totals for some age * sex * province groupings. Differences between the weighted sums produced from the survey and the control totals is called the slippage rate. Section 6.0 contains more information on the slippage rates for the CPSS1- Impacts of COVID-19.

5.3 Bootstrap Weights

Bootstrap weights were created for the panel and the CPSS1- Impacts of COVID-19 survey respondents. The LFS bootstrap weights were the initial weights and all weight adjustments applied to the survey weights were also applied to the bootstrap weights.

6.0 Quality of the CPSS and Survey Verifications

The probability panel created for the CPSS is a pilot project started in 2019 by Statistics Canada. While the panel offers the ability to collect data quickly, by leveraging a set of respondents that have previously agreed to participate in multiple short online surveys, and for whom an email address is available to expedite survey collection, some aspects of the CPSS design put the resulting data at a greater risk of bias. The participation rate to the panel is lower than typically experienced in social surveys conducted by Statistics Canada which increases the potential nonresponse bias. Furthermore, since the surveys of the CPSS are all self-complete online surveys, people without internet access do not have the means to participate in the CPSS and therefore are not covered.

When the unweighted panel was compared to the original sample targeted to join the panel, in particular there was an underrepresentation of those aged 15-24, those aged 65 and older, and those with less than a high school degree. These differences were expected due to the nature of the panel and the experience of international examples of probability panels. Using LFS responding households as the frame for the panel was by design in order to leverage the available LFS information to correct for the underrepresentation and overrepresentation experienced in the panel. The nonresponse adjustments performed in the weighting adjustments of the panel and the survey respondents utilised the available information to ensure the weights of nonresponding/nonparticipating units went to similar responding units. Furthermore, calibration to age and sex totals helped to adjust for the underrepresentation by age group.

Table 6.1 shows the slippage rates by certain domains post-calibration of CPSS1 – Impact of COVID-19. The slippage rate is calculated by comparing the sum of weights in the domain to that of the control total based off of demographic projections. A positive slippage rate means the sample has an over-count for that domain. A negative slippage rate means the survey has an under-count for that domain. Based on the results shown in Table 6.1, it is recommended to only use the data at the geographical levels where there is 0 slippage.

Furthermore, for analysis by sex, only proportions should be used, not totals. For example, when reporting excellent health by sex, it can be reported as:

X% of women are in excellent health as compared to Y% of men that are in excellent health.

However, as the total counts vary slightly from projected total demographic counts by sex, it is not recommended to say:

5 million women are in excellent health as compared to 6 million men that are in excellent health. It should also not be stated as 1 million more men are in excellent health than women.

(Numbers used in this example are only for illustrative purposes).

After the collection of CPSS1 – Impacts of COVID-19, a small bias study was conducted to assess the potential bias due to the lower response rates and the undercoverage of the population not online. The LFS data was used to produce weighted estimates for the in-scope sample targeted to join the probability panel (using the weights and sample from PERS_W1). The same data was used to produce weighted estimates based on the set of respondents from the CPSS1 survey and the weights COVID_W3. The two set of estimates were compared and are shown in Table 6.2. The significant differences are highlighted.

While many estimates do not show significant change, the significant differences show that some bias remains in the CPSS1- Impacts of COVID-19. There is an underrepresentation of those that are divorced/separated/widowed and those that rent. And there is an overrepresentation of people born in Canada, those that are married, those with kids in the household, and those where there were two eligible participants for the panel. These small differences should be kept in mind when using the CPSS1 –Impacts of COVID-19 survey data.
