Public Accounts committee  Thank you, Mr. Chair, for the question. Depending on the objective of the study or the research we do, one source for us would be to look at the census data, which collects lots of information around language spoken at home. Again, depending on the objective, and the integration

Public Accounts committee  As I said in my opening remarks, the tax research advisory group has been very helpful. We have looked at various initiatives so far. It has been a very active group, and I am very confident that we will be able to support ESDC and CRA with this tax research advisory group.

Public Accounts committee  Statistics Canada has a large number of surveys that are designed to report on the quality of life of Canadians. We use different kinds of statistical methods to measure those indicators. We also have some initiatives in terms of disaggregation of data. There's always a challen

Public Accounts committee  Thank you very much, Mr. Chair. I'm pleased to be here on behalf of Statistics Canada to discuss the government's action in assessing and measuring access to benefits for hard-to-reach populations. Statistics Canada is participating with the Canada Revenue Agency and Employment

Industry committee  Yes, we do have some information on Canadians who were trained outside of Canada and whether or not they are working in the same industry as their credentials.

Industry committee  Yes, we could.

Industry committee  Thank you for the question.

Industry committee  Thank you for the question. Yes, we do collect information, and we also release information broken down by various elements such as part time and full time, occupations and industries.

Industry committee  In terms of wages, we have several sources of information from which we produce information.

Veterans Affairs committee  Thank you, Mr. Chair. Mr. Chair and committee members, thank you for inviting us to this meeting. Statistics Canada would like to contribute to the study of the committee on the financial concerns of the marriage over 60 clause in the Canadian Forces Superannuation Act by pres

Veterans Affairs committee  Was the question regarding those who qualified?

Veterans Affairs committee  Thank you for repeating the question. As I've said in my opening remarks, Statistics Canada was asked for a very specific deliverable. The information we have presented is very limited in terms of understanding the population and the socio-economic characteristics of those who ma

Veterans Affairs committee  I want to make sure that I understand all the nuances in your question. Again, the four tables we provided to the committee focus on those who married a veteran at the age of 60 and over. We do not have information available in front of us in terms of being able to speak to the v

Veterans Affairs committee  I want to clarify, Mr. Chair, that Statistics Canada did not conduct a study. The work we did around those four Excel tables was really based on cost-recovery work. We were approached by Veterans Affairs Canada to prepare those tables. We did not go into detail in terms of what w

Veterans Affairs committee  Mr. Chair, I will turn to my colleague Andrew to see if he would like to answer that question.
