Yes, I agree with you. Each time we have a census, we produce a report using the data that Statistics Canada sells us. However, for those with disabilities, we don't manage to get a clear picture, because the only data that we have available are not about households, but about individuals. For example, we have no way to determine whether a person with a disability belongs to a household that has a core housing need. For that reason only, it would be helpful and meaningful to have that information. I imagine that we would then be in a better position to grasp the extent of the need and to budget for it as a result.
