Toronto Star Story: Liberals to restore mandatory long-form census

Nov 3, 2015

One of the new Liberal government's first acts will be to restore the mandatory long-form census, says the Toronto Star. SUMA is watching this file closely after the federal election, and is hopeful that Saskatchewan municipalities will once again have access to the valuable data provided by the long-form census. (See our municipal issues backgrounder in the 2015 Federal Election Advocacy Hub for more details on why the census is important to Saskatchewan's cities, towns, and villages.)
