This work is led through our research and evaluation branch. We have a dedicated section in the policy side of the department that works very closely with Statistics Canada with respect to the collection and use of that data. We have an internal data warehouse. We also share that information, and have memorandums of understanding, with Statistics Canada. They act as a critical focal point for statistics across the federal government, so it leverages out as well.
