2021 Census of Population: Population and Dwelling Counts - Video transcript
(The Statistics Canada wordmark, the Canada wordmark, and the title: “2021 Census of Population: Population and Dwelling Counts” are on screen)
(Patricia Griffith is on screen)
So my name is Patricia Griffith and I'm a data ambassador with Statistics Canada.
So what we'll be going over today are what was released yesterday, February 9, on the population and dwelling counts.What I'm showing you on this slide is our 2021 census release schedules.
(Slide on screen with the 2021 Census release schedule)
So of course yesterday February 9 was our population and dwelling count release, and that will be followed by six additional releases, ending with November 30 2022, in which you will see the variables such as education, labor, language of work, commuting and instruction in official minority languages be released. For the 2021 census, the data willbe released primarily via the internet. And each release will be cumulative.
So as a release and disseminations day passes, that information will be available on our website. And as we move through the dissemination process, Statistics Canada will continue to add different features to our products in order to make your experience working with our data useful.
(A slide showing the overview of what will be discussed is shown)
So what we'll be looking at today, just in terms of an overview of the presentation, we'll look at population and dwelling counts-- concepts, following that we'll look at geography concepts and touch on some resources available to you. And then we'll also look at data and resources available and we will have a live view-- a live demonstration of the Statistics Canada website.
(A slide outlining Census counts versus population estimates is shown)
So just before we get started, I wanted to touch a little bit on census counts versus population estimates.
So the Census of Population is designed to conduct a complete count of the population. However, there are instances where individuals will not be enumerated and we refer to that as under coverage, and instances where some individuals will be enumerated more than once. And that's referred to as over coverage.
So Statistics Canada conducts a postcensal study of the coverage of the Census of Population to determine the number of people who were missed or counted more than once. And we conduct this every two years, so at two years after the census date. And the results are used in combination with census figures and other sources.
So sources such as births, deaths, immigration, emigration, etc. To develop population estimates produced by Statistics Canada on a regular basis. By on a regular basis, I am referring to the fact that these estimates are released either quarterly or annual, and they are available at the national, provincial, territorial, and some sub-provincial levels of geography. These estimates meet legislative requirements, and they are essential for maintaining Canada's equitable representation. We also use these estimates to set electoral boundaries. And the estimates are also used to determine the demand for services in minority official languages. Another important feature of estimates is that they're used to calculate transfer payments between federal and provincial governments.
(A slide on the population and dwelling concepts that will be discussed is shown)
So moving on to population and dwelling concepts. What we want to look at here is the target population.
So who in fact is included in the population count. We want to look at their usual place of residence, in terms of where our respondents are. We'll look at dwelling and we will also look at private dwelling occupied by usual residents.
(Slides outlining the 2021 Census target population are shown)
So who is included in the target population? Included are Canadian citizens by birth or by naturalization, landed immigrants, and since 1991, non-permanent residents who have a usual place of residence in Canada. A non-permanent resident is defined as a person from another country who has a usual place of residence in Canada, and is here on either a work permit or a study permit,or who has claimed refugee status, and this would include all of their family members as well. Also included in the population are Canadian citizens and landed immigrants who live outside of the country.
So examples of this would be government employees who work outside of Canada, members of Canadian Armed Forces who are stationed outside of Canada, and Canadian crew members of merchant vessels and families. Statistics Canada also makes every attempt to make sure that we enumerate all of the Canadian population. Measures that we have put into place to do this are for individuals that could be harder for us to reach or may be less comfortable filling out the questionnaire online. We have a 1-800 telephone service where respondents can call in and talk to a census representative to help them with any questions they had pertaining to their questionnaire. Another item that we put into place was having questionnaires on our websites in 13 different indigenous languages, and 11 different immigrant languages, just explaining the questionnaires in those languages to allow individuals to better understand the questions that we were asking of them.
(A slide continuing on the 2021 Census target population is shown)
So we've talked a little bit about people that are included in the population.
So those that are excluded from the targetpopulation of the census are foreign residents.
So examples of this would be government representatives of another country and their family members, members of armed forces who are from another country who are stationed in Canada, and any residents that are visiting Canada temporarily. And just a reminder here, if you have questions along the way, please feel free to type your questions into the Q&A and we can maybe answer those as we go along.
(A slide outlining usual place of residence concept is shown)
So moving on to usual place of residence. The usual place of residence refers to the main dwelling in which the person lives most of the time. And what we're trying to identify here is the person as a member of a particular household.
So we're trying to get at the relationships that exist within the household. The census counts people in their usual place place of residence to ensure that a person is enumerated once, and only once.
So, for persons that will have only one residence, then that residence would be considered their usual place of residence. For persons who have no residence, then their usual place of residence would be considered the place in which they were on census day. And for persons who have more than one residence in Canada, they would-- the residents that we would include would be the place in which they spent most of their time. Now there are some exceptions to this rule. One example would be, for example, a student who resides in Nova Scotia but is going to school in Ottawa, for example. That student's usual place of residence would be considered the parents home, so, in this case, the student's province, which would be Nova Scotia. Another exception to this rule is children in child custody arrangements. In this situation, the person would get counted at the place in which they were on census day, which was May 11, 2021. And when we're talking about any residents in collective institutional dwellings, if they've been in the resident-- in the residence for more than six months, then that would be considered their usual place of residence. If they've been in the collective dwelling for less than six months, but they have a temporary-- but they have a place usual place of residence to return to, then we would count that person at that usual place of residence. If they have no usual place of residence to go to, then they would be counted as part of the collective institutional dwelling.
(A slide outlining dwelling concept is shown)
If we look at dwellings, so, a dwelling is defined as a set of living quarters and there are two types of dwellings that we identify in the census.
(A slide on collective dwelling versus private dwelling is shown)
One is collective dwelling and the other is private dwelling. A collective dwelling refers to dwellings that are institutional, communal or commercial in nature.
So, an example of this would be a hospital, jails. A private dwelling refers to a separate set of living quarters that has a private entrance from either the outside of the building or from a common hall or lobby inside of the building. The entrance to the dwelling has to be one that can be used without having to pass through the living quarters of a person, or other groups of persons, that actually live in that dwelling.
(A slide on private dwelling occupied by usual residents is shown)
A private dwelling occupied by usual residents refers to a private dwelling in which a person or group of persons is personally residing. And also included in this count would be private dwellings whose usual residents are temporarily absent on census day.
(A slide on unoccupied private dwelling is shown)
An unoccupied private dwelling refers to a private dwelling which has to meet two conditions that are necessary for year round occupancy. The first is a source of heat or power, and it also has to be able to provide shelter from the elements, but in which no individuals are residing on census day. There are two types of unoccupied private dwellings. The first is a regular private dwelling, which meets the conditions of year round occupancy that I just mentioned. The second is a marginal unoccupied private dwelling, and this means that the dwelling has not been converted for year-round use, so it does not meet the conditions of having a source of heat or providing shelter from the elements. In order for a marginal unoccupied private dwelling to be included in the census count, it has to be occupied by a person or group of persons who have no other usual place of residence. So an example of this could be a non-winterized cottage.
(A slide with the dwelling universe chart is shown)
On this slide, what I'm showing you is a chart that depicts the dwelling universe.
So at the top of the chart, in a box is dwelling, and if we look over to the left, it's further divided in collective dwellings, and then to the right, private dwellings. Collective dwellings are then further subdivided into an institutional dwelling and a non-institutional dwelling. And private dwelling is further divided into a regular dwelling and a marginal dwelling.
(A slide showing a screen capture of the 2021 Census of Population dictionary is shown)
So, if you want to have a look at this particular figure and other census concepts, you can refer to our 2021 Census of Population dictionary. If you are on our homepage, so the Statistics Canada homepage, if you use the breadcrumbs at the top of the page, so for example, you click on Census of Population, followed by reference materials to the 2021 census, this will bring you to Our Census of Population dictionary and a short introduction.
(A slide showing an additional screen capture of the 2021 Census of Population dictionary is shown)
If you scroll down further on that page, you will come to a table of contents, which shows you a complete A to Z index. And this is just a great resource for showing you all of the variables and concepts in alphabetical order.
So, if you click on this index, it takes you to a lovely page on our website where you can access these concepts and variables in more detail.
(A slide on geography concepts and definitions is shown)
So, moving on to geography, concepts and definitions.
So, what you see on this slide is a table that has about 15 or so different geographical concepts.
So, it looks a little overwhelming, but just to reassure you that our census team did work hard to produce some videos that are available on our website. And I'll show those to you a little bit later. But essentially, these videos are aimed at just giving you a better explanation of the high level geographies that Statistics Canada uses to disseminate its products. And also, it puts all of this information into better context for you in terms of the geographic products and geographic reference materials that we have available.
(A slide with the geography 2021 Census hierarchy chart is shown)
So, before we get started, what I'm showing you on this slide is a 2021 census hierarchy chart.
So, what you'll see is that each geography is represented by a hierarchy in a box. At the top of the chart, we have Canada, and there are 21 boxes that are stacked on top of one another, either horizontally or vertically. And they represent either administrative areas or statistical areas. The boxes that you see shaded in blue represent our administrative data. These are defined by federal and provincial statutes, and are adopted by Statistics Canada for the dissemination of our products. The boxes that you see in white are the statistical areas, and they are defined by Statistics Canada and are used for the dissemination of our products. You'll also see some lines that are joining each of the boxes in the hierarchy. And these are just there to depict that there are relationships that exist between the different levels of geography.
(A slide showing a screen capture of the 2021 Census of Population dictionary, list of figures, is shown)
Again, if you want to have a look at this figure in more detail, I urge you to go to the Statistics Canada homepage. You can follow the breadcrumbs at the top of the presentation. If you click on Census of Population, followed by reference materials, and then finally, click on the dictionary Census of Population 2021. If you scroll down a little bit, you'll see a list of figures. You'll find figure 1.1, which is the hierarchy of standard geographic areas for dissemination that we looked at on the previous slide. And by clicking on that, you'll have-- you'll have access to more information if you want to have a look at that in more detail.
(A slide on the Census division concept is shown)
So, looking at some of the geography concepts. The census division is a group of neighboring municipalities that are joined together for purposes of regional planning and managing common services. These groupings are established under laws and that are effect in certain provinces. In other provinces, where these laws are not in effect, Statistics Canada defines areas equivalent for statistical purposes by working in cooperation with these provinces and territories. The census division is one of the most stable geographies, geographic areas used by Statistics Canada. And you'll also notice that this level of geography is used quite often for longitudinal analysis.
(A slide on the Census subdivision concept is shown)
The census subdivision is another general term for municipalities, or it's an area that's treated as a municipal equivalent for statistical purposes.
So, Indian reserves and Indian settlements. Municipal status is defined by laws that are in effect in each province and territory in Canada. And the geographic reference date that we are using for the 2021 census is January 1, 2021. Just a quick note here, there are situations where municipalities can be amalgamated or de-amalgamated. Not to get concerned, though, because Statistics Canada does provide an interim list of changes to municipal boundaries and that is available on our website, and I'll show you that as well a little bit later on.
(A slide of the Census division/subdivision map of Greater Vancouver Regional District is shown)
So, just to give you a bit of an idea of what the census, CD/CSD map looks like, what you're looking at now is a census division Census Subdivision map of the Greater Vancouver Regional District.
So, you'll notice that the boundaries that are outlined in a bold red line represents the census division boundary. And within that census division, you'll notice thinner gray lines and those represent the Census Subdivision boundaries.
So in this instance, the CMA boundary has 38 Census subdivisions contained within it.
(A slide on the Census metropolitan area concept is shown)
So, if we move on to the census metropolitan area, the CMA is formed by one or more adjacent municipalities that are centered on a population core. And a CMA has to have a total population of at least 100,000 persons, of which 50,000 persons or more must live in that core. To be included in the CMA other adjacent municipalities have to have a high degree of integration with the core. And this integration is measured by commuting flows data. Another interesting point about a CMA is that once it becomes a CMA, it is retained as a CMA, even if the total population falls below the 100 person threshold, or if the population of its core falls below 50,000 person threshold.
(A slide continuing on the Census metropolitan area concept is shown)
So, just to point out certain changes with respect to the 2021 census, so the 2021 census saw six new CMAs developed. One in New Brunswick, which is Fredericton. Drummondville, Quebec, Red Deer, Alberta, and then we had three in British Columbia so Kamloops, Chilliwack, and Nanaimo. And there was one name change recorded in Belleville became Belleville-Quinte West.
(A slide of the Census metropolitan area map of Kitchener-Cambridge-Waterloo area is shown)
So the map that we're looking at now is a census metropolitan area map of the Kitchener- Cambridge-Waterloo area.
So what you're seeing here, the thick gray outline on the map represents the census metropolitan area boundary. And then you'll notice some-- a very thin black line at the interior of the CMA and this represents the boundary of the census subdivision.
(A slide on the Census agglomeration concept is shown)
A census agglomeration is a CMA-- as with the census metropolitan area, the CA is formed by one or more adjacent municipalities, and it is also centered on a population core. A census agglomeration has to have a core population of at least 10,000 persons. And in order to be included in a census agglomeration, other adjacent municipalities have to have a high degree of integration with the core and, similar to the CMA, we measure that by commuting flow data. If the population core of a census agglomeration falls below the 10,000 person threshold, then that CA is retired from the next census.
(A slide continuing on the Census agglomeration concept is shown)
And just to give you an idea of changes to the Census agglomeration in the 2021 census, so there were five new census agglomerations. We had two in Quebec, Saint-Agathe-des-Monts and Amos. We had one in Ontario, which was Essa, two in British Columbia, which were Trail and Ladysmith. The CA Saint-Hyacinthe, Quebec, was subdivided into census tracts. And there were also two CA's that were retired. So, one of which was in Newfoundland, Bay Roberts, and the second was in Cold Lake, Alberta.
(A slide on the Census tract concept is shown)
Moving on to the census tract, so the census tract is a small, relatively stable unit of geography that has a population of fewer than 7500 persons. Census Tracts are located within the census metropolitan area and in the census agglomeration, and it has to have a core population of 50,000 persons or more. And that's based on previous census information. Any changes to census tract boundaries are discouraged. And that's just to ensure that there's data comparability between census years. And a census tract can also be split into one or more new census tracts, and that usually happens when the census tracts population starts to exceed 10,000 persons or more.
So when it starts to grow at a fast rate, then, splitting a census tract is definitely a possibility. When a CMA or a CA is subdivided into census tracts, the see-- the census tract is also maintained, even if its core population falls before-- falls below the 50,000 person threshold. Another interesting point is that local specialists, so for example, municipal planners, work with Statistics Canada in order to delineate the census tract boundary.
(A slide of the Census tract map of Montréal area is shown)
What we're looking at on this page is a map of the census tract and this is in Montreal.
So what you'll see is a thick red dotted line. And what this represents is a census tract boundary. The thin black lines are just simply roads within that census tract. I'll also bring your attention to the number that you see here, and that's a six digit number. And it is a unique identifier that identifies this specific census tract in Montreal.
So, for example, here you see 013 5.00. And that is a specific, unique geographic identifier, that for this particular tract in Montreal.
(A slide on the federal electoral district concept is shown)
A federal electoral district is an area that's represented by a member of the House of Commons. And the federal electoral district boundaries that are used for the 2021 census are based on a 2013 representation order. The representation order was proclaimed on October 5, 2013, and it was based on census-- 2011 census population counts. And just to give you an idea, so between the 2013 and the 2000-- or 2003 and 2013 representation order, the number of Feds increased from 308 to 338.
(A slide on the economic region concept is shown)
An economic region is a grouping of complete census divisions, with one exception in Ontario, and it is created as a standard geographic unit for analysis of regional economic activity within a province. Within the province of Quebec, the economic regions are designated by law and they are referred to as a région administrative. In all other provinces and territories in Canada, economic regions are created by agreement between Statistics Canada, and the province or territory concerned.
(A slide on the designated place concept is shown)
A designated place is a small community that does not meet the criteria used to define municipalities or population centres.
So a population centre has to have at least 1000 persons and a density of 400 persons per square kilometer. Designated places are created by provinces and territories and they are done in cooperation with Statistics Canada as a means of providing data for sub-- sub provincial areas. Designated places are updated add an-- added and deleted every five years and they are done in accordance with the criteria that define them.
(A slide on the dissemination area concept is shown)
A dissemination area is also a small stable geographic unit that's composed of one or more adjacent dissemination blocks. DAs have an average population of between 400 and 700 persons, and the dissemination is considered to be the smallest standard geographic area for which all census data are disseminated. And they cover the territory of Canada and respect boundaries for census subdivisions and census tract. For the 2021 census, DA boundary updates were undertaken where census tract and CSD boundaries were modified. And also, there were a number of user defined dissemination area updates that we completed and these were based on results of consultation to local specialists.
(A slide of the dissemination area map of Mahone Bay, Nova Scotia is shown)
What we're looking at now is a dissemination area map. And this is of Mahone Bay, which is located in Nova Scotia.
So you'll notice a thick green line and this is the boundary that outlines the census division-- census subdivision. Within that thick green line, you'll see a thin-- a thin green line and that outlines the discernments-- dissemination area boundary. And again, just drawing your attention to this unique identifier-- identification number.
So for example, 12060156 represents a specific dissemination area in Mahone Bay, Nova Scotia.
(A slide on the aggregated dissemination area concept is shown)
The aggregated dissemination area. So this was a new geography that we introduced in the 2016 census. And the ADA covers the entire country and where possible has to have a population of between 5000-15000 persons. The aggregated dissemination area is created from existing dissemination geographic areas and it's formed by census tracts, census stub-- subdivisions and dissemination areas. And the ADA also respects the current census provincial, territorial census division, census metropolitan area and census agglomeration boundaries.
(A slide on the dissemination block concept is shown)
The dissemination block is the smallest level of geography for which population and dwelling counts are disseminated. So other variables would not be available at the dissemination block level of geography. A dissemination block is an area that's bounded on all sides by roads and or boundaries of standard geographic areas. Dissemination blocks cover all of the territory of Canada. And they are used as primarily as building blocks for custom defined geographies.
(Slide on screen starting the tour of the Census of population webpage)
So what I'm going to do now is just show you a quick tour of the website. And again, feel free to start typing any questions that you have in our Q&A section, and we'll move on to the-- to the website.
(The homepage of the Statistics Canada website is shown)
So what you see here is, uh, I'm at the homepage of the Statistics Canada website. If you use the tabs at the top of the-- at the top of the page, you'll see a tab that's called census.
(The main Census of population page of the Statistics Canada website is shown)
So if you click on census of population, this will bring you to our census of-- the main census of population page. Just to draw your attention to this page, so what you see here are a number of key indicators. The default is Canada, but you do have-- there is a drop down menu here where you can choose a specific province, I'll choose Prince Edward Island, and you'll see that automatically these numbers are updated.
So again, we only have access to the population and dwelling count information. But as the data is released, then this will be populated with that information as well. And if we move down a little bit further, you'll see here, the census release...sorry. I'm just going to stop sharing for one moment and I'll get back to the website. Okay, so as you'll see here, there's also information for census releases. And you can also, if you click on all releases, it will bring you to any of the latest releases that are currently out.
So again, just population and dwelling counts that you have access to. And also another interesting feature is the number of days to the next release.
So as our host mentioned at the beginning of the webinar, you-- we will have webinars pertaining to other releases as the dissemination schedule progresses.
So if we click on the first tab here, which is census data.
(The Census of population data products page of the Statistics Canada website is shown)
So what you're going to see here is essentially information on census profiles, data tables pertaining to population and dwelling counts, and any highlight tables that you have access to. Another interesting feature is that you can filter by product type.
So for example, if you wanted to look at the profile of a specific community or region, you could choose that tab. You could choose a table, there's interactive charts and thematic map.
So at the moment, all of this is populated with the population and dwelling released. And as I mentioned, it-- the cumulative data will be available here as well as we move along through the dissemination schedule.
(The Census of population analytical products page of the Statistics Canada website is shown)
If we go back to-- if we look at another tab, which is called census analysis, I'm just drawing your attention here to any analytical products that would be available on the census release day. Again, you have access to a filter by product type. If you click on our census in brief, there are a couple of pieces of information here that are pertaining to growing-- the fastest growing municipalities between 2016 and 2021. And then the same information for rural areas. If you were to click on the daily component, this just provides you with some nice-- basically some themes of-- of the release.
So from this, we can see that Canada is remaining one of the top, the highest growing countries in relation to G7 countries. Even though you know, we were hit with a COVID pandemic, we're still growing at quite a-- quite a quick rate. And also that Canada's large urban centers are continuing to grow. Another ax-- endpoint that you can access here would be any thematic maps.
So if you wanted to look at population density, for example, you could do that, population growth changes between provinces, that would be available to you there as well.
(The 2021 Census of Population reference materials page of the Statistics Canada website is shown)
If we move on to the census reference table, what you'll see here, a nice piece is that you have access to the most requested pieces of reference information.
So we've talked a little bit about the dictionary for the census of population. Also, here, you'd have access to the release schedule. And also, if you wanted to have a look at the specific questions that we asked from the 2021 census, this is where you would be able to do that. Again, you can also see same common look and feel for-- for each tab and also to the 2016 census is a section here where you can filter by product.
So if you were to type in a keyword, you could filter the information, or you can simply click on the tabs that are here. So you have access to a dictionary, to the census guide, to any technical reports that are being released. Census questionnaires and any data quality and confidential-- confidentiality issues that you might be interested in looking at.
(The 2021 Census of Population topics page of the Statistics Canada website is shown)
So if we move on to census topics.
So this, as I mentioned, will have the same look and feel as a 2016 census.
So as you can see, at the moment, the only thing that's highlighted here, are population and dwelling counts, simply because we've only had one release so far. But once all of these variables become are disseminated and released, then these variables will be highlighted. And simply by clicking on them, it will bring you to... tables of interest.
Another interesting piece here is that you can also look at the same, topics from previous censuses. So you're-- if you're doing comparison between census years, this is a good tool for you to have to be able to go back as far as the-- well, here to the 2006 senses to the archive data.
(The Census geography page of the Statistics Canada website is shown)
Now our census of geography. I spoke a little bit earlier about some of the products that are available.
So the first point that I'll draw your information to is the spatial information products.
(The Census spatial information products page of the Statistics Canada website is shown)
So what you have access to here are boundary files, cartographic-- digital cartographic files, our road network files.
So for example, if you're going to be doing any mapping or any spatial geographic work, you would be able to go to this part of our website and actually download the information for your use.
(The Census geography page of the Statistics Canada website is shown)
So if we go down, scroll down the page. You also have access to census maps, and basically here, you'd have access to any thematic maps that have been released on the dissemination day, in addition to any of our, the standard reference maps that I showed you earlier in the presentation.
So the census division map or a census tract map, this is where you would find all of that information.
(The Census attribute information products page of the Statistics Canada website is shown)
With regard to our attribute information products, a couple of features that I'd like to draw your attention to here would be GeoSuite.
(The Census GeoSuite page of the Statistics Canada website is shown)
So this is actually a wonderful tool to work with. And again, I talked about the geographic-- the hierarchy of standard geographic areas for the 2021 census.
So the nice thing about using GeoSuite is that it puts all of that into perspective on the chart, but also when you focus in on a specific geography, you get that data, so you get the 2021 census population and dwelling information. You get the geographic level in which it falls, it falls and you also get the corresponding information for the 2016 census.
So if I were just to type into GeoSuite, for example, and I type in Toronto, what I'm going to choose here is the CMA of Toronto. And then I hit this little magnifying glass button, so the search button, and what you'll see is that the data is populated now for the CMA of Toronto. And if you look to the right where the standard geographic hierarchy is, as you can see that that block is bolded. You can also see information for the CMA of Toronto for the 2021 census, the geographic levels and then comparisons to the 2016 census.
Another interesting feature is, that I mentioned early on, the unique identifying code for the CMA. So Toronto's code is located here 35535.
So it provides the population dwelling counts, that information, and as you move along, if you have a few geographies that you're looking at the same time, you can show or hide different columns and you can also export this information into either a CSV or an XML format.
(The Census attribute information products page of the Statistics Canada website is shown)
The next thing that I'd like to show you is the census program data viewer.
(The 2021 Census of Population Census Program Data Viewer page of the Statistics Canada website is shown)
So this also is a lovely reference tool at hopefully you can familiarize yourself with. The nice thing about this tool is that it provides, you can change a lot of things in the table.
So for example, you can look at the census here, you can change the variables that you're looking at, you can change the indicators, I'm just going to let this load here. And of course, with the default for this particular product is always Canada. But just to give you an idea of how that works.
So if I clicked on the Census here, and in the drop down menu, I would choose 2021 and apply that. And then what I would have access to is I can change the geographic level.
So let's say I'm not interested in looking at Canada as a whole, I want to look at census divisions. And oops, sorry. And then let's say that I want to find a specific place, so I want to change the area of focus to a specific place. So what I'm going to type in here is I'm going to type in Halifax. And you'll see it is working just because it's bringing up different place names.
Sorry, it's a little slow. Essentially, what would happen here is if I type in Halifax, I can change the indicators that I want to look at, and I can also export this data to put this into another format if I was interested in using this for my personal use.
(A slide on Statistics Canada’s data literacy training videos is shown)
So just one thing before I conclude this portion of the webinar, I also want to let you know about a few data literacy training videos that Statistics Canada has to offer. And these are just aimed at providing any new users to data or any users who want to expand their knowledge of data. And there are several training videos that are available on different topics on our website. One of those is the data journey, so things that you would need to know for successful navigation. The other is gathering data, so things that you'd want to consider before you put your data pieces together. And then the last video available is actually telling the data stories. So how to create stories that matter. So using Statistics Canada data or any other data that would be of interest to you.
(A slide about the Data Service Centre is shown)
So that concludes this portion of the presentation.
(The Canada wordmark is on screen)
