Ontario DLI Training Questions and Answers

I attended the Ontario DLI training session at Ryerson University earlier this month and there were some questions that I would like to now respond to. Here are the questions I received and the answers (or starting point for answers). I’m open to receiving feedback from any of the university DLI representatives who attended the training, or anyone else who would like to know more about the changes to the latest PUMF.

1: Why is Aboriginal identity grouped with visible minority on the PUMF? Other surveys don’t do this.

• I looked into this and it stems from a decision on older cycles of CCHS where the indicator of Aboriginal identity was part of the racial/cultural background question. At the time, the subject matter team determined that there was too few respondents identifying as Aboriginal identity by health region to safely release that response category. In 2015-2016, with a separate Aboriginal identity question, the counts are much higher and in verifying with methodology that the identification risk is low, we have decided to include this variable on the file.

2. Is it possible to find out what optional content is available on each PUMF?

• Yes, we can provide some kind of an excel file with the optional content by year. We already have something available for the master files now, it will just take us some time to put this together. Once available, I will distribute it to the DLI.

3. Can we get more details about the Canadian Active Living Environment (CANALE) indicator?

• The PUMF file will include a copy of the CANALE technical user guide, which you can find here: http://canue.ca/wp-content/uploads/2018/03/CanALE_UserGuide.pdf. There is also an overview available here: https://canue.ca/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/CANUE-Metadata-Canadian-Active-Living-Environments.pdf

4. The rapid responses, buy-ins, sub-samples – they don’t appear in the PUMFs. Can the user guide documentation indicate this?

• Yes, we have updated the complement to the user guide document that PUMF users will see to better clarify what variables from the master file end up on the PUMF.

Modernization Bulletin

All issues of the Statistics Canada Modernization Bulletin are now available on the EFT. The bulletin aims to keep you up to date on the latest Statistics Canada initiatives and transformations.

The December 2018 issue addresses many of the questions raised by the DLI community.

Drug Use Data for Youth

Question:
I just had a phone call from a local high school, with a student who was initially asking about access to the CTADS 2017 PUMF. After a quick conversation we determined that the student doesn’t actually want the data to analyze, but is hoping to get usage rates of an assortment of drugs (cocaine, ecstasy, cannabis, and alcohol) for youth ages 15-25 ish. I couldn’t find tables with this data on the STC site – any ideas where to look?

Answer from DLI:
Although this is specific to BC, you may want to suggest they check out the Adolescent Health Survey (AHS) [http://www.mcs.bc.ca/about_the_bc_ahs] from the McCreary Centre Society. It collects data on alcohol, marijuana and other substance use by BC students in grades 7 to 12.

The results are reported for the province as a whole and in regional reports and special topic reports. Data from the 2018 survey is not yet available; the most recent published data is from the 2013 AHS. Here’s a link to the provincial report:

From Hastings Street to Haida Gwaii: Provincial results of the 2013 BC Adolescent Health Survey. See esp. pp. 34-41. [http://www.mcs.bc.ca/pdf/From_Hastings_Street_To_Haida_Gwaii.pdf]

Also see the Canadian Centre on Substance Abuse (CCSA) website on Student Drug Use [http://www.ccdus.ca/Eng/topics/Monitoring-Trends/Student-Drug-Use/Pages/default.aspx].

The CCSA produced a report in 2011 which pulled data on alcohol, cannabis and other drug use from a number of regional surveys, including the BC Adolescent Health Survey that I mentioned in my previous email:

Young, M. M., Saewyc, E., Boak, A., Jahrig, J., Anderson, B., Doiron-Brun, Y., Taylor, S., Pica, L., Laprise, P., and Clark, H. (Student Drug Use Surveys Working Group). (2011). The Cross Canada Report on Student Drug Use: Technical Report. Ottawa, ON: Canadian Centre on Substance Abuse.
[http://www.ccsa.ca/Resource%20Library/2011_CCSA_Student_Alcohol_and_Drug_Use_en.pdf#search=all%28student%20drug%20use%29]

A short (2-page) version [http://www.ccdus.ca/Resource%20Library/2011_CCSA_Cross-Canada_Report_on_Student_Alcohol_and_Drug_Use_Report_in_Short_en.pdf] of this report is available on the CCSA website, as is a 2-page guide to Trends in Drug Use among Youth (2013) [http://www.ccdus.ca/Resource%20Library/CCSA-Trends-in-Drug-Use-Youth-2012-en.pdf].

Survey on Disability 2017

Question:
I have just read that the 2017 Survey on Disability was released on November 28: 

https://www150.statcan.gc.ca/n1/daily-quotidien/181128/dq181128a-eng.htm

I note that there a number of data tables with the results.  Will the survey be available as a PUMF and/or in the RDCs?

Answer:
The Canadian Survey on Disability (CSD) 2017 is expected to be available in the RDCs by the end of 2018 or early 2019. The file is also expected to be released through RTRA in late winter 2019.

Unfortunately, there are currently no plans to develop a PUMF for CSD 2017. Earlier releases of the Canadian Survey on Disability (CSD) are the Participation and Activity Limitation Survey (PALS) and Health and Activity Survey: Household Component (HALS). The last time a PUMF was created was for the 2006 PALS. In all, the following PUMFs available through the DLI: PALS 2006, PALS 2001,HALS 1991 and HALS 1986.

Discharge Abstract Database Access

Question:
Hello Is 2014-2015 the most recent Discharge Abstract Database data we have access to?

Answer:
The Discharge Abstract Database (DAD) 2016-17 is the latest version available on the EFT.

EFT: /MAD_CIHI_ICIS_DAM/root/discharge-abstract-database-2016-17/

CCHS 2015-2016 Availability

Question:
Will the CCHS 2015-2016 be uploaded to Nesstar shortly?

Answer:
We’ve just been notified by the CCHS team that the CCHS 2015/2016 PUMF will be delayed until the end of January. If we hear anything otherwise, we’ll let the DLI community know as soon as possible.

GDP 1945 to present

Question:
I have a researcher looking for:

“So the data I need is GDP from 1945 to present - either all nominal or all 'real' (chained dollars). 

And I also need GDP broken down into the 4 categories - consumption, investment, net exports and government spending - as a percentage of total gdp. So for example it would show consumption as being 20%, investment 30%, government 40%, net exports 10% . 

Also preferably from 1945-present. “

Most GDP tables I see only go back to 1997.

There are a few tables (36-10-0239-01, 36-10-0240-01 and 36-10-0268-01)  (Cansim 380-0001, 380-0002 and 380-0030) that cover 1961 to 2012.

I identified these tables by looking in the Canadian Economic Observer Historical Statistical Supplement.

However, there do not appear to be any tables that I see which go back to 1945 and continue to the present, not to mention the four categories the researcher wants.

Am I missing anything?   I suspect that the researcher will not get exactly what they want, so is there any advice I can pass on to this researcher?

Answer from subject matter:
“For calculating percentage shares, the researcher should use estimates based on current prices (not real or chained dollars). Compatible data for earlier years—CANSIM 380-0064--are expected to be released in August.

Table: 36-10-0104-01 (formerly CANSIM  380-0064)

Geography: Canada

Prices [Current prices \/]”

Answer from DLI:
[Someone] also pointed me to an article on GDP in the Canadian Encyclopedia.   

Canada's GDP, 1870 to 2016.   https://www.thecanadianencyclopedia.ca/en/article/gross-domestic-product

This entry has a chart, which references Jorda et al., 2017.  This lead me to:

• Jordà-Schularick-Taylor Macrohistory Database   http://www.macrohistory.net/data/
• The dataset “Real Economy” includes GDP-nominal and GDP per capita.  For Canada, it covers 1870-2016 in  .xls and .dta formats.

Refugee Resettlement Data

Question:
I am working with some students who are doing a thesis project pertaining to refugees in Canada.

They have been looking at summary tables at  Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada.

They are looking for more specific information that would outline actual expenses for different items, specifically:

...under Consolidated Statement of Operations and Departmental Net Financial Position, Newcomer Settlement and Integration and Refugee Protection, they would like to know if they could obtain:
1. this information for the date range of 1980 - 2015
2. further breakdown of Newcomer Settlement and Integration expense to % spent on refugees specifically v. all other newcomers.

Does anyone have any experience locating this data?

Answer:
Unfortunately it looks as if you will have to contact IRCC directly with this one: https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship.html

2014 National Multiplier File

Question:
I have a researcher interested in the 2014 National Multipliers detailed file. I was able to get the 2013 file from the EFT site, but I could not find the 2014 version. Is it possible to get the 2014 file?

Answer:
I’ve attached the 2014 National Multipliers here and will load them to the EFT today.

CCHS Availability

Question: 
Has the CCHS been released? I’m not seeing it in Nesstar and don’t recall having seen an announcement on the list about its availability.

Answer:
Unfortunately subject matter has hit a snag and there are some rather large changes that need to be made before the data is released. They’ve informed me that they’re hoping to have it out as early as possible in January, and they want me to pass on their apologies!

Rest assured, I’m being told that these changes will be quite positive!

Tuition and Living Accommodation Costs

Question:
I  got the following question from a student –

I was looking for confirmation that the tuition costs in Table 8E - "Tuition Fees for Canadian Students, 1972-2016" were per semester, but I couldn't confirm that in the metadata provided in the excel file, or elsewhere on the Revised Tuition and Living Accommodation Costs webpage. Do you know if I am correct in my assumption?

Connected to that point, I believe that the Graduate tuition is per semester, but averaged over 2 semesters rather than 3. This seems to be a common practice, but again I could not confirm this anywhere.

I found the Respondent Guide which states that tuition is reported by semester and then multiplied by 2 to calculate tuition for the academic year (8 months). So does that mean that the amount reported in the table is for the academic year? 

I was not able to find anything about the second question – graduate tuition being per semester and averaged over 2 semesters rather than 3. Is there any information about this?

Answer:
Here is the response from subject matter:

“Table entries for tuition are for a full academic year (8 months) regardless of student status.  In the Respondents Guide, tuition is defined as “Tuition that is charged to a full-time student (with a full load of 30 credits per year.”  However, in order to allow for varying situations, on the questionnaire tuition amounts can be entered as per Academic year (8 months), Semester (4 months), Per credit, or Other.”

Canadian Survey on Disability (CSD), 2017

Question:
A researcher asked if the recent cycle (2017) of the Canadian Survey on Disability (CSD), announced yesterday in the Daily will be added to the RTRA collection?

If there are plans to add it to RTRA, are you able to indicate when that would be available?

Answer:
The CSD 2017 will be released in the RTRA in late winter 2019 (end of January/February).

Food Availability

Question:
I have a researcher who is looking to find the type of data available in CANSIM table 32-10-0054-01 (food available per person per year), but at lower levels of geography (Provincial or even smaller). Specifically for the different types of pork listed in the table.

Is there any source that would do that?

Answer:
Here is the response from subject matter:

“Food available in Canada releases only Canada level.
Because it covers about 200 commodities together, all the commodities do not have the provincial level data. Especially, we do not have the lower level data for Pork. The data source is Market and Industry Service Branch (CFIA).”

Agriculture Census Restricted Microdata

Question:
I have a researcher who is wondering if it is possible to get access to restricted data from the AgCensus e.g, restricted-level geographies below CCS right to individual responses, likely through something akin to an RDC.  Is there a means to do this, or is the researcher dependent on custom tabulations?  I know that RDC’s don’t have AgCensus data, but I don’t know if there is another mechanism for this specialized product.

Answer from Subject Matter:
Subject matter has responded letting us know that the only option they would be able to provide would be in the way of a custom tab. They would need more information in order to give you a quote so please let me know if this is something your researcher would be interested in pursuing, otherwise the RDC’s might be the next best option.

Answer from DLI Members:
I see that the Canadian Centre for Data Development and Economic Research (CDER) has access to a microdata file called “Census of Agriculture Longitudinal File”:

Census of Agriculture Longitudinal File

• Nature: Longitudinal administrative database of farms.
• Usage: The database can be used to analyze the changes that occur on farms over time.
• Content: Unlike the traditional Census of Agriculture data set, which only covers a single year, the linked file connects multiple censuses (1986, 1991, 1996, 2001, 2006 and 2011). Variables of interest include farm type, farm size, inputs, technology, products as well as economic indicators.
• Coverage period: 1986 to 2011.
• For more documentation on each of the databases, or documentation on other databases, please contact CDER at statcan.cder-cdre.statcan@canada.ca

CDER operates on a cost-recovery basis. Projects must be approved, and access to the files is only available on-site in Ottawa.

The CDER is the repository for business and economic microdata files. The microdata that it provides are detailed enough for complex analyses. For business microdata files, the CDER ensures to maintain the confidentiality of the business respondents.

Answer from Subject Matter:
I find the Annual Crop Inventory to be really valuable since it’s a spatial product available over somewhat of a time series https://open.canada.ca/data/en/dataset/ba2645d5-4458-414d-b196-6303ac06c1c9  (interesting accompaniment to the Forest Resource Inventory (FRI) which is pretty dated at this point).

2014 CFCS question from Memorial

Question:
I have a researcher her at Memorial who is reporting that they are using data from the 2014 Canadian Financial Capability Survey (CFCS), however they noticed that some of the questions in the 2014 CFCS survey are reported differently in the 2014 CFCS dataset.  They are using Nesstar.

They are hoping to access the raw values for IN_Q02 and IN_Q04 in the questionnaire so that they can categorize them according to the income categories specified on the survey.

Do I need to send them to the RDC for that? 

Answer:
The SPSS file is downloadable through Nesstar, and you would be able to see the PUMF raw values through there.

Fertility Rates by Province 1965-2015

Question:
I have had a researcher asking for annual fertility rate by province from 1965-2015. They have fertility rates from 2000-2015 from Table 13-10-0418-01. We also have number of births by province in Table 17-10-0008-01 going back to 1971. We can find national fertility rates in the OECD numbers going back to 1970, but they need provincial.

I think historical data is likely available in print documents and we are able to get fertility rates from 1986-1996 in the Vital Statistics Compendium. I am emailing to ask if I am missing anything. Is there one source where I can get provincial fertility rates going back to 1965 or will we need to use multiple sources including print to get these numbers. Any recommendations are welcome.

Answer:
Subject Matter sent an excel file containing some the requested information.

CCHS - Sedentary Behaviour Availability

Question:
Re:  CCHS release coming in December.  Does it include the sedentary behaviour (compulsory?) module?

Answer:
Here is the response from subject matter:
“The Sedentary Activities module (SAC) will be available on the CCHS PUMF for the release in December. This module was selected by 3 provinces for 2015-2016.”

Company E-commerce Data

Question:
Can anyone suggest where a student might find information about WalMart CANADA ecommerce  and retail data.  Is it possible to know which company in Canada is first in ecommerce?  I know Stats Can does provide company names.  Google searches come up with Statista which looks pretty good but we don't subscribe.  Any or all ideas are welcome.

Answer:
Here is the response from subject matter:

“Due to confidentiality, we cannot comment on specific companies.
That said, we do have a Partial list of Retail Chain Stores from our website and in relation to our Annual Retail Trade Survey table 20-10-0066-01.
He may also want to have a look at our tables on e-commerce 20-10-0065-01 (Annual) and 20-10-0072-01 (Monthly), maybe could be of use to him.
Also, from our website, you can suggest that he does a search by keyword(s) ‘’Annual Retail’’, ‘’Monthly Retail’’ and a lot more tables will show up.”

Historical Real Estate Data

Question:
A student is looking for historical prices for real estate prices in a neighbourhood in Montreal (Plateau Mont-Royal) from 1951 to this day. I do not believe this data is readily available, but I wanted to double check with the community. As far as I know, the best sources are:

MLS data (HPI tool: Monthly data from 2005 to 2018)
https://www.crea.ca/housing-market-stats/mls-home-price-index/hpi-tool/

Residential Property Values (yearly data from 2005 to 2015, by provinces and census metropolitan areas)
https://www150.statcan.gc.ca/t1/tbl1/en/tv.action?pid=3410001301

Is there anything that goes further back than 2005 and that drills down to boroughs/neighbourhoods level (or at least CSD level) ?

If not I may contact the people at CREA (https://www.crea.ca/) who are in charge of the MLS data, but I wonder how far back their database goes.

Answer from DLI:
Have you tried the Royal Lepage Historical Database? It has prices for the Montreal Area (so I don’t think it goes down to neighborhood) back to the early 1970s.

If you don’t mind the approximation: “Value of dwelling (If you were to sell this dwelling now, for how much would you expect to sell it?)” and the five year jumps, you might consider Census Tract level Profile tables.

Answer from Subject Matter:
Here is our response from subject matter:


“There is nothing else available than the links below.  There is certainly no data before 2005, however there may be more details available in the future in terms of neighbourhoods in Montreal, in a few years.”

Historical Capital Gains Data

Question:
I have a researcher who is looking for historical statistics on capital gains reported by individual taxpayers. Table 11-10-0048-01 (formerly CANSIM 111-0042) contains exactly the information needed, but only goes back to 2000: https://www150.statcan.gc.ca/t1/tbl1/en/cv.action?pid=1110004801

Is there any way of gaining access to this same data going back to 1972? I have looked in the older print catalogues and cannot find anything similar. We have located capital gains data that was published directly by CRA/Revenue Canada for the period he is looking for, however the method of representing the data is different. Statistics Canada publishes the actual amount of capital gains reported, while CRA figures show the taxable amounts of capital gains after the inclusion rate has been applied.

Answer:
Here is the response from subject matter:

“Capital Gains only begins with reference year 1998, therefore I enclosed 1998 and 1999, English version.  Please advise if you need these tables in French also.

There is no data prior to 1998.”

Information on Factory Openings

Question:
I have a researcher that regularly uses the NPRI database, but the database doesn’t have information about when a factory opened, only the date for when they were registered in the database (can’t assume this is the opening date – a given factory could have only reached pollutant thresholds for registration after x number of years of operating, for example). He’s interested in when a number of factories in Ontario were opened, and was curious if there was a product or database that would provide this information. Any ideas where this info might be in one place?

Answer:
Here is the response from subject matter:

“The Business Register would have a birth date for every business location on our database however this is not data that we would normally be able to share and would require a discretionary order to proceed. It would be available at a fee to federal government divisions who are using this information for research and analysis purposes. If the client does meet these requirements, we can reached at our mailbox: BRD-Information / DRE-Information (STATCAN) statcan.brd-information-dre-information.statcan@canada.ca for further information.”

Research and Development in Canadian Industry Statistics

Question:
I have a student interested in “Research and Development in Cdn Industry Statistics”.

Information on this data says that data is available on a cost recovery basis. Do you know if there are any data tables that have the same information in them? Or if there is another option to the cost recovery option?

Answer:
Here is the response from subject matter:

“Statistics Canada no longer has the capacity to produce custom tables for R&D related statistics due to the move to a new production system.”

Inquiry into 2016 APS Release Date

Question:
Is there supposed to be release of the 2016 Aboriginal Peoples Survey this month? 

Answer:
Subject matter has let us know that there is not a release date scheduled for the 2016 APS, however there will be releases USING the data very shortly.

Survey of Employment, Payrolls and Hours (SEPH)

Question:
I have a researcher wishing to access the ‘Survey of Employment, Payrolls and Hours’. She is particularly interested in data for the territories.

I looked in the RDCs and did not see anything for it there.

Do you know where we can get access to it?

Answer:
I’ve received the following response from subject matter:

The data is available on the Statistics Canada website, see the NDM link below:

https://www150.statcan.gc.ca/t1/tbl1/en/tv.action?pid=1410022301

Terrorism Datasets

Question:
I have a graduate student interested in terrorism datasets, particularly DOTS (Data on Terrorist Subjects) and ITERATE (International Terrorism: Attributes of Terrorist Events), which are both commercial datasets, as well as Jane’s Terrorism and Insurgency Centre.

The student is most interested in ITERATE. I was wondering if anyone had any experience with any of these datasets at their institution, particularly ITERATE. I haven’t found much information on any Canadian schools that subscribe to these datasets, but some US universities have subscriptions. Looking for any feedback or information you might be willing to share on or off list.

In relation to terrorism datasets, is anyone familiar with the TWEED (Terrorism in Western Europe: Event Data) dataset? All links to this dataset seem to be broken. Any leads to locating this would be appreciated.

Answer from Subject Matter:
Unfortunately, as we had expected, StatCan does not have access to this, or any similar datasets. Hopefully you are able to get responses from others on the list!

Answer from DLI Members:

I have been buying the ITERATE/DOTS databases.  Although these have gotten outdated, here is what I have http://gsg.uottawa.ca/data/iterate-e.html .  Please let me know if you want more information about the vendor, price, and/ or to take a look at the content?

Answer from DLI Members:
ITERATE is at ICPSR; found a more recent one here: LibGuides: Terrorism: https://subjectguides.library.american.edu/c.php?g=478725&p=3273238

Agegr10 - GSS 28: Victimization

Question:
I received the following question from a researcher below about Aboriginal identify in the General Social Survey, Cycle 28: Victimization.

I have a question regarding their measure of Aboriginal identity.  In the answering category, there are 6884 valid skip.  My understanding is that the contrast is between Aboriginal v. Non-Aboriginal.  I am reviewing a paper which claims that it is a contrast between Aboriginal and White Canadians.

Question: Am I right that it is a contrast between Aboriginals v. NonAboriginals?

Question: NonAboriginals includes all other Canadians, both visible minorities and non-visible minorities, right?

What is the category of “valid skip”?

Answer:
We’ve received the following response from subject matter:

“For questions AMB_Q01 – Are you an Aboriginal person, that is, First Nations, Métis or Inuk (Inuit)? First Nations includes Status and Non-Status Indians.

This question was asked of respondents who were born in Canada (DV_CNTRYCODE_B01
= 11124), the United States (DV_CNTRYCODE_B01 = 11840), Germany (DV_CNTRYCODE_B01
= 21276) or Greenland (DV_CNTRYCODE_B01 = 11304) , if they did not meet this criteria they are not asked this question and are therefore a valid skip (they wouldn’t get asked this question)

For AMB_Q002

This question was asked of respondents who were born in Canada (DV_CNTRYCODE_B01
= 11124), the United States (DV_CNTRYCODE_B01 = 11840), Germany (DV_CNTRYCODE_B01
= 21276) or Greenland (DV_CNTRYCODE_B01 = 11304) and who responded "yes" to
the question ""Are you and Aboriginal person, that is, First Nations, Métis or Inuk (Inuit)?
(AMB_Q01 = 1).

if they did not meet this criteria they are not asked this question and are therefore a valid skip (they wouldn’t get asked this question).

I hope this helps answer what ‘valid skips’ mean.”

Follow-up Questions:
I have a follow up question for the same survey, GSS, Cycle 28: Victimization:

“When I used age (agegr10) subtract age mean, and then square the results (see the following equation), there are suddenly a lot of missing data for the new variable.

Compute agesquare = sqrt (agegr10 – 4.04).

How do I avoid this?”

Follow-up Answer:
Subject matter has replied with the following:

“Agegr10 is an age group variable with categories 1 through 7.  Use age instead.”

Follow-up Question:
Can we get further clarification and explanation from subject matter? It appears there is no other variable age. Agegr10 is the only variable for age.

Answer:
Subject matter has responded with the following:

“If this is the PUMF, the client will not be able to use Age as only age groups are available due to confidentiality.

They would need access to the analytical dataset to have access to the Age variable.  Or they would need a custom request which would be done on a cost recovery basis.”

Data on Approval Ratings of Federal and Provincial Governments

Question:
I’m pretty sure this isn’t a Statistics Canada question, but hoping someone can help anyway…

A political science graduate student is looking for data on approval ratings of federal and provincial governments over time, hopefully going back to the 1970’s. I’ve found some sources for Federal ratings (this CORA page is good, and ODESI now has plenty of polls to use to supplement that) but am drawing a blank on provincial data. Searching newspaper archives gives us occasional scattered data points, but I don’t see any straightforward way to build any sort of reliable time series.


Answer:
Perhaps this will save some digging (no promises though). These annual reviews always provide a synopsis of provincial elections, whether any of them consistently, or if ever, bring in polling data is a question.




Available via ScholarsPortal e.g., 1972: https://books.scholarsportal.info/en/read?id=/ebooks/ebooks0/gibson_crkn/2009-12-01/7/419356#page=1




From page 200 of the 1972 review:




Answer from Subject Matter:I’ve sent an email to the subject matter area responsible for the Social Identity survey and it asks the following question:

CII_Q40: How much confidence do you have in Federal Parliament?

Outside of this however there is nothing for “approval ratings”.

Latest PCCF syntax (aug 2018 postal codes)

Question:
Would anyone possibly have an updated SPSS syntax file to share for the newly released PCCF that is based on Aug 2018 postal codes?  We have a copy of the .sps for the June 2017 release but thought I would inquire in case someone’s updated the syntax for the new release?

Answer:
Yes, we are publishing these under “Other documentation” on Odesi.  See for August 2018 …

http://odesi2.scholarsportal.info/webview/index.jsp?v=2&node=65&submode=ddi&study=http%3A%2F%2F142.150.190.128%3A80%2Fobj%2FfStudy%2FPCCF-92154G-E-2018-August&mode=documentation&top=yes

CCHS-2018 -- Question about modules selected by particular provinces

Question:
A researcher has asked a question about the CCHS-2018. Apparently there are modules in this survey from which provinces can choose to opt out. She would like to know if there is a way to determine which provinces are and are not participating in these optional modules. Is there a way to find out? Perhaps this question might be one for an RDC analyst instead of the DLI program?

Answer:
Subject matter has responded with the following:

 “The RDC webpage has been updated to provide more information to researchers about the 2015 CCHS Redesign and the impact of comparability between past cycle since the Redesign.

 We have also add a section about the Content differences over cycles (http://www.statcan.gc.ca/eng/rdc/cencchs):

Researchers should be aware that optional modules are not available for each CCHS cycle and are only selected by some provinces and territories. To obtain a copy of the provincial and territorial selection of the Canadian Community Health Survey – Annual Component, contact Client Services (613-951-1746 or statcan.hd-ds.statcan@canada.ca).

You will find attached the CCHS Content Selection_ESCC sélection du contenu 2000-2018 that can be provided to the researcher.”

Average Daily Inmate Cost: Food

Question:
I’m looking for more detailed information on the ‘Average daily inmate cost’ variable in “Operating expenditures for adult correctional services” (Table 35-10-0013-01), specifically the average daily cost of food for inmates in Nova Scotia.

It’s for a nutrition student who is interested in food data about inmates in NS youth correctional facilities. There’s not a lot of youth data out there, and since it’s for a school assignment, I’m sure adult data will suit her needs.

Does this data exist?

Answer:
Subject matter has responded with the following:

“Unfortunately that level of detail is not something we are able to provide. Our subject matter expert did suggest that the client contact the NS department of Justice directly, as they may have that data available.”

Annual Return of Health Care Facilities—Hospitals

Question:
I’m looking for historical information regarding hospital staffing/expenditures by province and the Annual Return of Health Care Facilities—Hospitals seems to fit the bill. This survey was run by Statistics Canada from 1932 to the mid 1990s when CIHI took over but I can’t find it. I see only the summary stub here: http://www23.statcan.gc.ca/imdb/p2SV.pl?Function=getSurvey&SDDS=3208

Any ideas as to where I can access the historical data (which CIHI doesn’t have) or if there’s anything else that might fit the bill?

It appears this may be a print publication. Publications Canada only has one digitized although they have several iterations of the instructions available.

See http://publications.gc.ca/collections/collection_2017/statcan/83-233/CS83-233-1985.pdf

Does Statistics Canada have the print run of this available—hopefully in electronic format? Was this part of the StatsCan Library collection that was digitized?

Answer:
The Library has been able to provide us with the following:

PDFs of Annual return of hospitals, hospital indicators (82-233) from 1976-1983 can be found here:
http://publications.gc.ca/site/eng/9.811526/publication.html

Regarding Annual Return of Health Care Facilities, I could only find Selected tables from annual return of special care facilities within our catalogue. The digitized versions are available here:
http://publications.gc.ca/site/eng/9.863145/publication.html

However, an earlier version of this publication is Mental health statistics. Volume III, Institutional facilities, services and finances:
http://publications.gc.ca/site/eng/9.862004/publication.html

Later publications (into the 1990s), under the name Residential care facilities can be found here:
http://publications.gc.ca/site/eng/search/search.html?st=1&ssti=&e=0&f=0&adoof=0&ast=Residential+care+facilities&cnst=

In the catalogue records for these publications, “Continued by” and “Continues” can be useful in determining how the publications have changed names over time. Also, there is not always a direct link in the StatCan Library catalogue to the PDF, so it is worth it to search Publications.gc.ca for the digital version.

2016 Census Master File

Question:
Has a synthetic file been created for the 2016 Census master file? If not, is there a date for it?

I can't access the DLI Nesstar right now but I don't recall seeing it there last week. However, I don't see anything for the 2016 Census through the variable search at https://www120.statcan.gc.ca/dli/e1/stu?fq= either.

Answer:
Unfortunately Census does not create synthetic files, however the PUMF will be available this winter!

Uniform Crime Reporting Survey PUMF

Question:
I’ve been asked if there is a PUMF for the Uniform Crime Reporting Survey.  I don’t think so, as I’ve been through the EFT and Nesstar and don’t see anything, but figured I should double-check with the experts.

Answer:
You are correct – unfortunately a PUMF has not been created for the Uniform Crime Reporting Survey.

Housing for Adults with Developmental Disabilities

Question:
Can anyone help me with this request?

“I initially wanted to find some data sets pertaining to the housing situation of adults who are disabled, particularly for those who have developmental disabilities, but have yet to find any relevant literature or surveys.  If there were to be any code books or other resources that you could suggest, that would be greatly appreciated.”

Answer from DLI List:
CMHC published a Research Insight: Housing Conditions of Persons with Disabilities [https://www.cmhc-schl.gc.ca/en/data-and-research/publications-and-reports/research-insight-housing-conditions-persons-disabilities] which references the Canadian Survey on Disability and provides some summary statistics. The associated data tables I was able to find are from 2012 and don’t reference housing specifically. This is a survey run  on behalf of Employment and Social Development Canada—not sure if that means anything regarding access.

Answer from Subject Matter:
“CSD 2012 does have some housing variables included:

DDIS_FL (disability status) and DDEV_FL (Developmental disability indicator); type of in-residence aids used or needed and reasons for unmet needs (such as walk-in bath/shower, access ramp, widened doorways/hallways, lowered counters, etc. (AAD variables series); and Census linked housing variables (BEDRM-number of bedrooms; BUILT-period of construction of dwelling; GROSRT-gross rent; OMP-owner’s major payment; RCOND-tenure-condominium; Rooms-number of rooms; RPAIR-condition of dwelling; SUBSIDY-subsidized housing; TENUR-Tenure (owned or rented).)

CSD 2017 will be released at the end of the month and will include many more housing indicators.  Including core housing needs and shelter-cost-to-income ratio. Codebooks will be available in the new year.

I found one Statistics Canada study on our website that may be of interest:

82-003 - Health reports

Needs for mobility devices, home modifications and personal assistance among Canadians with disabilities

by Edward M. Giesbrecht, Emma M. Smith, W. Ben Mortenson and William C. Miller”

Census Microdata

Question:
I notice that Census of Populations PUMFs are no longer being produced and that the DLI Nesstar site has no metadata for Census of Population Master Files since 2006.

For 2011 and 2016 are there any Census products available to the DLI that aren't also available through the public-facing StatCan site? In other words, are paid, custom tabs the only way for DLI members to access Census data that isn't on the StatCan site?

Answer from DLI:
If I’m understanding your question correctly, I think you got caught as I did – the 2011 Census variables are with the NHS PUMF. In , you’ll the NHS under Social Surveys. I learned my lesson a couple of years ago! 

PUMFs for 2016 are forthcoming in 2019 (see https://www.statcan.gc.ca/eng/dli/prod_date).

Can’t speak to the Master File documentation, though.

Answer from Subject Matter:
Unfortunately the Census 2011 and 2016 Masterfiles are unavailable at the moment, however we are evaluating how to make them accessible.

Location of Work Question + Journey to Work Question

Question:
QUESTION 1
One of our researchers would like the number of jobs (including for workers who work at home) by census tract by location of work for all of Canada. They were told that they might be able to get this through the DLI. Because the researcher needs the location of work and not the location of the residence of the worker, the publicly available census data is no help.

I remember that a subject matter division shared a spreadsheet containing jobs by NAICS for DAs with us (and we were all very happy and grateful). But I can't seem to find a count of jobs by census tract by location of work. Am I missing something?

QUESTION 2
The same researcher would also love to have a table of distance from work to home by Census Tract, with extra bonus points if the "mode of commuting" variable is in there. Essentially, something like the default view of this data table (with no need for the "commuting duration", "time leaving for work", "age", or "sex" variables), but by CT instead of by CMA.

I don't suppose there's a table out there that I've missed that the researcher could use? The "Distance from home to work" variable isn't available in the census profiles.

Answer from DLI List:
Looks like there are some Census, Place of Work custom tabs available through the Map and Data Library, UofT:  https://dataverse.scholarsportal.info/dataverse/MDL?q=place+of+work

Not sure if that covers what you need though.

And, in ODESI there are commuting flows for 2006 CTs here: http://odesi2.scholarsportal.info/documentation/CENSUS/2006/TBT/B2020/DOCS/cenb06customtab.html

Recently, I think someone in the community asked about this data for 2016 because it was heavily written about in the media. It would be great to get a hold of the custom data if it exists or could be made.

Answer from Subject Matter:
I’ve spoken with subject matter and unfortunately information at the CT level is not publicly available (in standard products) for many variables, including journey to work given its precision. Because of this, the information will only be obtainable through a custom tabulation.

Historical Cause of Death Stats for NS and ON

Question:
I recently received this from a faculty member:
___

"I am looking for aggregated cause of death statistics for Nova Scotia 
and Ontario. I am interested in the number of homicides (each year) for 
both Nova Scotia and Ontario, which is recorded as a type of cause of 
death (among other causes). I am trying to collect the data on an annual 
basis for every available year (i.e. likely sometime in the early 1900s 
until the most recent year available).

For Nova Scotia, I was given data collected by a local historian for 
1749-1908. I was told by him that the data should be available beginning 
in 1909. I have found the following site, which suggests that data are 
available for select Canadian provinces beginning in 1920 
(http://www23.statcan.gc.ca/imdb/p2SV.pl?Function=getSurvey&SDDS=3233). 
However, I don’t know how/where to access these data, and I still 
require data from 1909-1919.

Although my current focus is Nova Scotia, I will eventually also collect 
the same data for Ontario."
___

Would an extracts from the Vital Statistics - Death database he refers 
to be a custom tab? if so, could you give me the necessary contact 
information so that he can negotiate the order? 

Answer:
Here is the response we've received from subject matter:

"I can say for certain we don't have anything in our databases that go back that far. I'm attaching a PDF [https://www150.statcan.gc.ca/n1/pub/11-516-x/sectionz/4147446-eng.htm] that has a table on homicide charges and dispositions (not incidents that way we count them nowadays), though I don't know if it will be of much utility since the counts don't break down by Province. That said, if the DLI could use with Canada level data, please consult page 33 of this document."

Postsecondary Student Information System - Information on Early Childhood Education

Question:
Background: I have had a request for The Postsecondary Student Information (PSIS).

Question: Does the Postsecondary Student Information system (PSIS) include National data on ECE (Early Childhood Education) programs and student numbers in such programs?

 I have found information relating to Early childhood educators and assistants in  Statistics Canada Data Table 37-10-0128-01 Number and percentage distribution of certificates granted by registered apprentices in apprenticeship program by major trade group and sex for Early childhood educators and assistants. However, the data in only available Ontario. The source of this data was the Registered Apprenticeship information System. See  Table  37-10-0118-01   Number and percentage distribution of apprenticeship program registrations by major trade group and sex

As a result, I ‘m starting to question if the PSIS even includes ECE data.

The access issue relates to a problem that I encountered trying to access the PSIS via WDS https://dli-idd.statcan.gc.ca/wds/ReportFolders/ReportFolders.aspx?IF_ActivePath=P,17351,20239&IF_Language=eng

When I clicked on the above link which I found on https://www.statcan.gc.ca/eng/dli/dli-products it generated [an] error message.

Answer:
I will follow up with subject matter regarding the ECE numbers in the PSIS data, however, in regards to the link through the WDS – unfortunately the Education Division had asked us a few months ago to remove all of the PSIS information off of the WDS due to some inaccuracies in the data. This would account for your access issues.

Here is the response from subject matter:

"PSIS data covers all college and university programs and, therefore, would include any program that could result in college or university credentials that would include ECE material.  For example, Classification of Instructional Programs (CIP) 13.1210 covers "Early childhood education and teaching" and cites Bachelor and Masters degrees as potential credentials associated with it.  CIP is one of the key variables included in PSIS.  (Unfortunately, the CIP-6 (digit) variable is assigned to a program based on the institutions program description and, therefore, may not be as accurately tied the CIP-6 value as researchers might expect.  Also, CIP-6 enrolment and graduate numbers are often very small at the individual institution level, resulting in inadequate data for detailed analysis.  In general, we highly recommend that researcher use CIP-2 or CIP-4 values instead.)"

The PSIS file can be found in the EFT at /MAD_DLI_IDD_DAM/Root/other_autres/5017_PSIS_SIEP/data

Follow Up Question:
The PSIS on the ETF doesn't appear to have any information on Early Childhood Education CIP Classification 13.1210 (more specifically CIP 13.1015 ECE). I have identified  Table: 37-10-0012-01 (formerly CANSIM 477-0030) as potential source of the data source. When I tried to customized the table using the Add/Remove data tab and narrow the results by credential type, i.e.,  Certificate and Diploma I do get a number, however, many institutions are offering degree programs in ECE.  Once I included degree program I get all type of education degree programs, not just the ECE programs. 


Would it require a custom tab to identify only the ECE  programs (certificate, diploma and degree). Am I missing a data source that provides this information?

Answer:

Subject matter has confirmed that there would unfortunately be a cost associated with identifying only the ECE programs (ie custom tab), at a minimum of $150.

Looking for "self-employed" variable for the General Social Survey, 2013 [Canada]: Cycle 27, Social Identity [version 2]

Question:
A researcher is looking for a self-employed variable in the PUMF for the GSS 27 Social Identity survey.  It’s there for the previous cycle, cycle 22, but we can’t find it for cycle 22.  Are we missing something …?

We also wondered …

• When will there be a new cycle on Social Identity?  Is this documented anywhere?  The researcher would like to follow this.  We noticed the IMDB page still indicates 2013 as the latest year.
• Would it be possible to see a release date for the next GSG on https://www.statcan.gc.ca/eng/dli/prod_date

Answer:

Here is the response I received from subject matter:

“You are correct, cycle 27 does not have a self-employed variable in the PUMF.  Subject matter will get back to us if they can find why it was left out.

The next iteration of Social Identity will go in the field in May 2020 and the first release(analytical) is expected in the Fall of 2021, with the PUMF following likely in the Spring of 2022.”

Historical Census population data by Census Tracts for 1941

Question:
A geography researcher is looking for historical Census population data by Census Tracts for 1941.

We have previously located:

1951                    https://archive.org/details/1951981951M5NO51953engfra
1956 &1961        https://archive.org/details/1961955281963engfra
1961                    http://publications.gc.ca/collections/collection_2017/statcan/CS95-541-1961.pdf

The researcher believes there must be Census population data by Census Tracts for 1941 based on the “Census Years” documentation about Census Tracts  at http://www12.statcan.gc.ca/census-recensement/2011/ref/dict/geo013-eng.cfm which indicates there were Census Tracts in 1941. 

Would it be possible to please request some help finding 1941 population data by Census Tracts, or to ask to what this documentation about Census Years is referring? 

Answer:
Here is the response from subject matter:

“The census tract program did start in 1941, however census tracts were called “social areas” when it started, and it seems that only Vancouver and Winnipeg were tracted at that time. Here is the link to that publication: https://archive.org/details/1941981941M32A161941ef

Are you looking for data from a specific area? I noticed the two first links are for Ottawa. This city was only first tracted in 1951 according to our publication “Census tract programme: A review 1941-1981”. I did find data by municipal ward for 1941, if it can be helpful at all: https://archive.org/details/1941981941P7NOA151941ef”

Canadian Work, Stress, and Health Study (CANWSH)

Question:
I am looking for  The Canadian Work, Stress, and Health Study (CANWSH).

I was told that this was a Statistics Canada survey but I haven’t been able to find it.

Any ideas?

Answer:
I don’t think it is [a Stats Canada Survey]. According to the article notes for “Control in the face of uncertainty” [http://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/0190272514546698],  the ”Canadian Work, Stress and Health Study [is] a national panel survey of Canadian labor force participants funded by the Canadian Institutes of Health Research to study work stress and its long-term consequences for workers and their families.”

It appears they ran their own survey. I would contact the researchers directly.

Individual Annual Income Data

Question:
I have a researcher who is seeking to update data for a study that he has already completed. In the past he used data from Statistics Canada Census. The data was broken down by the following age groups


0 to 4 years
5 to 9 years
10 to 14
15 to 19
20 to 24
25 to 29
30 to 34
35 to 39
40 to 44
45 to 49
50 to 54
55 to 59
60 to 64
65 to 69
70 to 74
75 to 79
80 to 84
85+

He is looking for a similar age break down to make his previous data comparable to the current data.

He needs individual annual income data. He refers to as total income reported on income tax forms. I believe he is referring to Tax Filer data from CRA Income Tax Returns available from Statistics Canada.

The geography which he is seeking income data for B.C., and if possible for the Okanagan region. He indicated on the past he was able to access the data by CMA.

He has looked at Table 98-400-X2016110 https://www12.statcan.gc.ca/census-recensement/2016/dp-pd/dt-td/Rp-eng.cfm?LANG=E&APATH=3&DETAIL=0&DIM=0&FL=A&FREE=0&GC=0&GID=0&GK=0&GRP=1&PID=110242&PRID=10&PTYPE=109445&S=0&SHOWALL=0&SUB=0&Temporal=2016&THEME=119&VID=0&VNAMEE=&VNAMEF=

He didn't find it useful because it only provided 7 age groups which is not enough comparative purposes for his research.

15 to 24 years
25 to 34 years
35 to 44 years
45 to 54 years
55 to 64 years
65 to 74 years
75 years and over

He indicated I could also use annual income data for the age groups of the primary household maintainer, but I can’t find this data either. Age groups from the 2011 census were:

Under 25 years
25 to 29 years
30 to 34 years
35 to 39 years
40 to 44 years
45 to 49 years
50 to 54 years
55 to 59 years
60 to 64 years
65 to 69 years
70 to 74 years
75 years and over

I sent him to Canada Table Tax filers and dependents 15 years of age and over with labour income https://www150.statcan.gc.ca/t1/tbl1/en/tv.action?pid=1110002301

I have told him that the best method to get exactly what you are looking for is to pay for a custom report on Income of Individuals 13C0015 from Statistics Canada. See https://www150.statcan.gc.ca/n1/en/catalogue/13C0015 details on how to order the report. There is a similar report for Households 13C0016 see https://www150.statcan.gc.ca/n1/en/catalogue/13C0016

I indicated the report characterize the Canadian population by income and demographics. Data may be requested by gender for marital status, age groups, counts by single year of age, sources of income, income distribution by age group, taxes paid, selected deductions and benefits, median employment income, median total income and median after-tax income, plus national and provincial indices of median total income. The statistics are derived primarily from the annual tax file provided by the Canada Revenue Agency.

Data for some geographic areas are available starting from 1986. The latest data (2016) can be requested for Canada, provinces and territories, federal electoral districts, economic regions, census divisions, census metropolitan areas, census agglomerations, census tracts and certain postal geographies.

The cost of each custom product is based on the time required to produce it according to the client's requirements. The hourly rate is $75.52. 

He didn’t seem to keen on the idea of paying for a custom report.

Do you have any additional ideas where he can access the needed data?

Answer from Subject Matter:
Did the researcher mention for which Census year he previously used the Statistics Canada Census data? Also, in the past did the user receive a custom table or did he use one of the standard products from the Census Program page? Finally, we received the following response back from subject matter: 

“I checked Census 2006 and 2011 and Okanagan was not a CMA. We had ‘Okanagan-Similkameen’, ‘Central Okanagan’ and ‘North Okanagan’ as Census Divisions.

Also for Census 2016 Okanagan is not a CMA but ‘Okanagan-Similkameen’, ‘Central Okanagan’ and ‘North Okanagan’ are the Census Divisions.


Here are some reasons why he can’t access the data he is looking for:

1)      For 2016 Census with ‘total income groups’ variable all standard tables we have is for the geographic hierarchy ‘Canada, Provinces and Territories, Census Metropolitan Areas and Census Agglomerations’. So he won’t find the geography he is looking for.

2)      Individual income information was compiled for the population aged 15 years and over (Income Reference Guide, Census of Population, 2016) so for there is no age group below 15 years.

3)      I checked all the standard tables for Census years 2011, 2006 and 2001 with ‘total income’ and ‘Age groups’. Please see the maximum grouping in cross tabulation below:

• For 2001: Total Income Groups (22) in Constant (2000) Dollars, Sex (3), Age Groups (9A) and Marital Status (6) for Population 15 Years and Over, for Canada, Provinces and Territories, 1995 and 2000 - 20% Sample Data - Cat. No. 97F0020XCB2001040.

          2001 Census Data Products

• For 2006: Total Income Groups (23) in Constant (2005) Dollars, Age Groups (7A), Highest Certificate, Diploma or Degree (5) and Sex (3) for the Population 15 Years and Over of Canada, Provinces, Territories, Census Metropolitan Areas and Census Agglomerations, 2000 and 2005 - 20% Sample Data

         2006 Census of Canada: Topic-based tabulations

• For 2011: Selected Demographic, Sociocultural and Labour Characteristics (168), Income Statistics in 2010 (3B) and Total Income Groups (7) for the Population Aged 15 Years and Over in Private Households of Canada, Provinces, Territories and Census Metropolitan Areas, 2011 National Household Survey (table contains Age group (9))

          2011 National Household Survey: NHS Data tables

Based on his requirements a custom table is required.

The cost of each custom product is based on the time required to produce it according to the client's requirements. The hourly rate is $77.03 (http://icn-rci.statcan.ca/30/30a/30a_007-eng.html).

There is a base consultation fee of $519.95 for a minimal effort custom data request. The price is adjusted based on the specifications and degree of difficulty requested by the client.”

Follow-up Question:
Further of this email correspondence the researcher I’m working with used the following tables in his previous research:
