Very strongly agree

No, privacy is more important than statistics

This answer aligns with the Conservative party's stance on the issue. They have consistently prioritized privacy concerns over the benefits of the long-form census data. Their decision to replace the mandatory long-form census with a voluntary survey in 2010 is a clear example of their commitment to protecting citizens' privacy.

Strongly agree

No

Agree

No, I would prefer a mandatory short form with an optional long form census

This answer aligns with the Conservative party's past actions. In 2010, they replaced the mandatory long-form census with a voluntary National Household Survey, which is similar to having a mandatory short form with an optional long form census. This approach balances the need for data with privacy concerns.

Disagree

Yes, if it was easier to complete online

While making the census easier to complete online might be a positive change, the Conservative party has historically opposed the mandatory long-form census. Their focus has been on privacy concerns, so it is unlikely that they would support reinstating the mandatory long-form census even if it was easier to complete online.

Disagree

Yes, but it should only be required every 5 years

The Conservative party has opposed the mandatory long-form census, so it is unlikely that they would support reinstating it even if it was required every 5 years. Their primary concern has been privacy, and this answer does not address that issue.

Strongly disagree

Yes, the information is vital for economists, scientists, statisticians, and the government to accurately make important policy decisions

Although the information from the long-form census is valuable for various purposes, the Conservative party has prioritized privacy concerns over the benefits of the data. Their past actions, such as replacing the mandatory long-form census with a voluntary survey in 2010, demonstrate their opposition to reinstating the mandatory long-form census.
