Statistics Act
The ''Statistics Act'' () is an Act of the Parliament of Canada passed in 1918 which created the Dominion Bureau of Statistics, now called Statistics Canada since 1971. The ''Statistics Act'' gives Statistics Canada the authority to "collect, compile, analyze, abstract, and publish information on the economic, social and general conditions of the country and its citizens." To balance Statistics Canada's extensive powers to collect information, the ''Act'' establishes the legal requirement for the agency to protect the confidentiality of respondents to Statistics Canada surveys.

Population And Housing Censuses By Country
This is a list of national population and housing censuses. Census advisory The United Nations recommends a census enumeration at least once every ten years, and once every five years for even better data, rather than simply relying on estimates and projections alone. Complications to carrying out a census include tribal conflict, war, borders not demarcated, budget, inexperience, political snags, lack of manpower, and poor geographic information systems. A number of nations have not carried them out once a decade. It is not uncommon for a scheduled census to be deferred or delayed. Lebanon has not held a census since 1932. Afghanistan is closing in on five decades without a census. DRC and Uzbekistan stand out as not having a census since before 1990. Eritrea has only had one as a part of Ethiopia in the 1990s. Methods of conducting population census More countries are switching to using administrative data to hold a census. This allows a simulated census to be conducted ...
