Here are my responses to the 2006 Long Form.  Here is a link to the 2006 short form and here is some General information about the 2006 census. I will post the questions in a subsequent post.  I still for the life of me do not understand what the fuss is about, there is nothing nefarious in this questionnaire? Also, here is the Statistics Act of Canada.  Item 31 is the item in the Act that seems to be causing an uproar, yet, there are no records of these sanctions being imposed.

Note: The contentious question #53 is both on the long and short form!

I encourage others to post their responses!

Note: Religion was asked in the 2001 Census, this question is only asked every 10 years – It was questions #22. You can read information about the 2001 Questionnaire here.  That information includes the reasoning behind the questions.  The 2001 questionnaire is available here.  You can access some data here.
