The Census of Canada
Issued by
HON.. BL H. STEVENS, Minister
=3
Yen will find
*
It
In the opening weeks of June every family and
every home in Canada will he visited by a repre
sentative of the Government for the great national
purpose of taking the seventh census of Canada*
The census is really a stocktaking. That is, it
provides the information to enable the Govern
ment and others interested iii the development
of the country to formulate progressive policies
for the happiness, comfort and prosperity of our
people.
All the information supplied is strictly confidential, and the officers
of the Government are subject to severe penalty if they disclose any of
the information which is given to them by residents in the country, to,
any oilier than the Government.
Furthermore, it has nothing whatever to do with taxation, or military
service, or compulsory school attendance, or immigration, or any sucli
matter;and the Government itself cannot use it except for statistical
totals. 1
The Government representative will put the same questions to all,
and it is your duty as a resident of this country to answer promptly and
truthfully. The Government is very anxious to avoid forcing anyone to
answer these questions, but it is empowered to do so in the few cases
where individuals may refuse.
