Just thought I'd give a gentle prod to all of us that live in Canada to remind them that the 2006 Census forms are coming soon (or should have already arrived)
New this year is the option to complete it online with the code that comes with the paper census. Using the online access it took me no more than 10 minutes to complete (I got the short form this time)
Remember folks, it is the law to complete and return the census forms :)

As long as I can stick it to them and tell them I'm pure Canadian.
I'll try the online form instead of the other one.

OK legal beagle maybe you know? Whats up with the consent to disclose personal information in the year 2098 question? Not that I care as I got the short form too this time. By 2098 they'd probably be able to get the same info off my headstone.
I did the long form online last night. 35 minutes later.

IIRC it has to do with the collection and dissemination of personal information under the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA) the Federal legislation governing the collection of personal data by the federal governments and private businesses.

Who facking cares about the god damn Census?
My Dad already did the short one (I think). You only get one per household correct?
I guess I don't have to worry about this then.

i do, and every other entreprenuer out there.
I got the long form 3 times in a row. Last time I added a note telling them they could kiss my ass if they sent me the long form again. Guess which form I got...They're not getting anything out of me.
Just an FYI. For those that don't know the long form is 40 pages cover to cover.

Okay what are the odds that over a twelve year span you'd get the long form each time? :blink: Do you get audited by Revenue Canada every year too? :(
