Manitobans are now receiving 2016 census material in their mailboxes and are encouraged to fill out the forms and return them to Statistics Canada.
Vic Toews, Member of Parliament for Provencher, was pleased to see the results of the 2011 Census.
In addition to the 2011 Census, one in three households across Canada have also been asked to participate in the new National Household Survey (NHS)
The second phase of the 2011 Census has started as one-in-three Manitoba households will receive a National Household Survey (NHS) form.
With the 2011 Census upon us, the City of Steinbach and the municipalities of La Broquerie, Ste. Anne, and Hanover strongly encourage all households to participate as the census numbers determine the amount of provincial and federal funding communities will receive.
Every household in Manitoba will soon see census forms in the mail and the provincial government is encouraging everyone to complete the forms.
Although the 2011 Census date is still a couple months away, the City of Steinbach and the municipalities of La Broquerie, Ste. Anne and Hanover are already working together to promote participation in the Census.
The federal census conducted by Statistics Canada collects information from Canadians every five years to provide a demographic picture of our country.
