National Survey of Work and Health of Nurses

Question

A researcher would like to have access to the “2005 National Survey of the Work and Health of Nurses” – STC Record Number: 5080http://www23.statcan.gc.ca/imdb/p2SV.pl?Function=getSurvey&SDDS=5080&Item_Id=13648 Is this file available in PUMF form?

We found the STC/CIHI publication: "Findings from the 2005 National Survey of the Work and Health of Nurses" http://www23.statcan.gc.ca/imdb/p2SV.pl?Function=getSurvey&SDDS=5080&Item_Id=13648 but we’re hoping to use the underlying data.

Answer

There is no PUMF available for that survey. But it is available in the RDCs

Public Housing Expenditures

Question

A student is looking for government expenditures at the municipal (Montreal) and provincial (Quebec) level for public housing, from 1990 to 2013. Short of adding up the data from annual budgets (which is not easy to do if you are not an accountant) is there any compilation of such public expenditures? I could not find any so far. I have contacted Office municipal d'habitation de Montréal and FRAPRU (a community organization). Is there anywhere else I could try?

Answer


Under the new bilateral agreements for the IAH, provinces and territories will report publicly on outcomes of the investment using agreed-upon indicators:
- Société d'habitation du Québec <http://www.habitation.gouv.qc.ca/english.html>
- Quebec Agreement for Investment in Affordable Housing 2011 - 2014<http://www.schl.ca/en/inpr/afhoce/fias/upload/CMHC-Quebec-Agreement-for-Investment-in-Affordable-Housing-2011-2014.pdf>
