Canadian Travel Survey 2006

Question

I had a request for this file last week; according to the Daily, it was released May 30, 2008, but it has yet to appear in the DLI collection. I can't check to see if this has been discussed on the list (since I've forgotten the password to access the archives); can someone tell me why this file is not available to us? The page at says that it is part of the DLI collection, so I am perhaps understandably confused ...

Answer

We checked with the author division and this catalogue record is wrong and will be corrected. The CTS was discontinued in 2005 and replaced with the Travel Survey of Residents of Canada.

We have microdata for 1980-2004 for the Canadian Travel Survey (http://www.statcan.gc.ca/dli-ild/data-donnees/ftp/survey-travel_enquete-voyage-eng.htm) and microdata for 2006-2008 for the Travel Survey of Residents of Canada (http://www.statcan.gc.ca/dli-ild/data-donnees/ftp/tsrc-evrc-eng.htm) in the DLI collection.
