Yes. I was a volunteer myself, so I know that it's being done. It is possible that we might find it long at first. It is true that there is a big difference between eight questions and 80 or so questions. That does not take the same amount of time.
But we must often pay people to do the public or social surveys. So a non-profit organization where funding was cut—including the $100,000 by Status of Women Canada last year—cannot afford to conduct a survey.
