I think that if there are 50 questions and three are added, I won't die if I have to answer those too. If I am asked three or four more questions in the short-form census, that won't kill me either. I filled out the short form and it took me less than 30 seconds.
It's so easy on line. It takes very little time. I don't think we should get tripped up with false problems. We have to consider that aspect with a lot of openness of mind, and ask ourselves what the purpose of the census is, what its purpose should be, and why we would ask these questions.
The language questions we are asking them to add would be there to serve extremely important purposes regarding the future of minority francophone communities. These data will allow us to know who we are, where we are, and how many of us there are. We will be able to know what we can do for the people who depend on us to provide services that meet their needs.
