Pada tahun 2011, pemerintah Konservatif mengumumkan bahwa karena alasan privasi, sensus berdurasi panjang tidak lagi diperlukan. Ini akan digantikan oleh sensus bentuk singkat yang hanya akan mengumpulkan data demografis dasar. Penentang sensus termasuk pendukung kebebasan sipil yang berpendapat bahwa sensus bentuk panjang terlalu invasif dan melanggar privasi orang. Para pendukung pemulihan survei sensus sukarela berpendapat bahwa tanpa sensus bentuk panjang yang wajib lebih sulit untuk melacak tren dalam ketidaksetaraan pendapatan, hasil imigran di pasar pekerjaan, kekurangan tenaga kerja dan pergeseran demografis.

Have meaningful questions to non-invasively track immigrant job outcome, income inequality and etc.

No, privacy outweighs statistics

Yes. Citing "privacy concerns" as the reason for its removal served as a distraction to allow other forms of privacy invasion to be instated.

Now that bill c-51 passed, the government gets all the information they could want through spying on us via internet and telephone as well as satellite surveillance and video monitoring. The government has way more information about Canadians now than ever before so reinstating the long form in the census is a non issue I feel is used by the candidates to distract from other more difficult to talk about issues like getting rid of bill c-51!

Not having the long form is a disgrace to Canadian citizens. It must be reinstated. We can not collect or find out information about the basic demographics of this country.
