title: Survey of Voters and Non-Voters, 2002 [Canada]
title: Explaining the Turnout Decline in Canadian Federal Elections: New survey of non-voters, 2002

description: Following declining voter turnouts throughout the 1990s, the voter turnout at the Canadian general election of 2000 (61 percent) was the lowest on record. It is in this context that Elections Canada developed a research project aimed at evaluating the opinions and attitudes of non-voters, and to provide additional insight into the reasons for non-voting at federal elections. The objective of this research is to assist in further defining and comprehending the phenomenon of non-voting. &lt;BR&gt; &lt;BR&gt; As part of this project, Decima Research Inc. was commissioned to conduct a survey of Canadians who were eligible electors at the time of the 2000 Canadian general election, including equal proportions of voters and non-voters. The survey covered a variety of socio-demographic, attitudinal, and contextual factors, in order to explain the phenomenon of non-voting in Canadian federal elections.

title: Survey of Older Workers 2008 [Canada]
title: SOW 2008
title: Enquête sur les travailleurs âgés, 2008 [Canada]

description: The survey is designed to assess the labour market intentions and transitions of older Canadians. The subject matter is intended to identify "factors" that influence the decision to retire or remain working. In this context pensions, general finances, the role of dependents, the nature of work, health considerations etc., will be of primary concern in trying to understand workers intentions and motivations. Additionally, the main objectives of the survey are to identify: • Health related factors that impact the decision to retire from a “career job”, remain working, or start a new job; • The personal financial considerations that impact on the decision to retire from a “career job”, remain working or start a new job; • The role of pension plans in the retirement/work decision; • The role of dependents in the retirement/work decision; • The role of occupation, industry, gender, marital status and geography in the retirement/work decision.

title: Enquête sur le tabagisme au Canada, 1994

description: The survey, begun in February 1994, monitors the smoking patterns of Canadians over a 12-month period and to measure any changes in smoking resulting from the decrease in taxes in cigarettes which took place in February 1994 in some provinces. The major objectives ofthe survey are: (1) to measure prevalence of cigarette smoking and amount smoked, (2) to measure changes in prevalence and changes in amount smoked,(3) to measure the effect of price on prevalence and on amount smoked, and(4) to measure these items in ways that are consistent with past surveys and planned future surveys. The secondary objectives are to gain some insight into attitudes toward cigarette smoking and behaviours related to smoking.

title: School Leavers Follow-up Survey, 1995 [Canada]
title: SLSF 1995
title: Enquête auprès des sortants, 1995 [Canada]

description: The survey was designed to address questions of what environmental, social,attitudinal, personal and economic factors contribute to the early departureof some students from school to the labour force, their early labour market experiences and their quality of life. This survey collected information on the level of education attained, experiences in school, family background,etc., from individuals 18 - 20 years old who are classified into one of three groups; dropped out of high school before graduation; still in high school; and graduated. &lt;br&gt; In early 1994, HRDC requested that Statistics Canada re-interview the 1991survey respondents. The School Leavers Follow-up Survey (SLFS) was conducted between September and December 1995, again using the CATI instrument. The primary objective of the Follow-up was to study the school-work transitions of young people bey ond high school, particularly: 1. from the end of highschool to the first job and 2. after the first job (i.e. various school-work and work-work transitions). Note: The School Leavers Follow-up Survey gathers information on the respondents labour market status and education/ training beyond high school, for example: educational attainment; last weeks (week preceding the interview) education and work; reference jobs first and most recent reference job (a reference job is one of sufficient duration, that is, a job involving at least 20 hours of work per week for a period of at least six consecutive months); period between the last time in high school full-time and the beginning of the first reference job; period between the last time in high school full-time and the beginning of the job held in the week preceding the interview (or the beginning of the week preceding the interview); general work information.

description: Migration from Nesstar
description: Notes: Not all Canadian postsecondary institutions did report their student registers to Statistics Canada. While this only resulted in an overall low level of undercoverage, this problem was concentrated in a number of provinces, with Alberta being particularily affected. There was also some other coverage problems as some institutions reported categories of students outside the target, or omitted categories of students inside the target. Other data limitations include effects due to reweighting of strata after correcting for the exclusion of students no longer registered as the time of the survey, and for the proper reallocation of students originally included in the unknown strata. The overall response rate was very good.;

title: Survey on Reading and Buying Books, 2005
title: Reading And Buying Books For Pleasure -- 2005 National Survey

description: The primary purpose of this survey was to provide a detailed statistical picture of the habits of Canadians with respect to buying and reading books for pleasure. The questions ask respondents to indicate their reading habits, including genre type, and frequency of reading. The respondents were also asked about other non-reading activities such as television watching, use of internet, and the frequency of use, to provide a comparison to reading. There are also questions on other topics of interest such as books bought, proportion of Canadian authors among books bought, and library use. The respondents were also asked questions so that they could be grouped according to geographic and social variables. Topics of interest include: reading habits; buying books; television; impact of internet; genre; Canadian authors; and library use. Basic demographic variables are also included.

title: Survey of Self-employment, 2000 [Canada]
title: SSE, 2000
title: Enquête sur le travail indépendant, 2000 [Canada]

description: This microdata file contains survey data from the Survey of Self-employment. The survey was conducted in April 2000 by Statistics Canada on behalf of Human Resources Development Canada (HRDC). It collected data on the socio-demographic characteristics of the self-employed, as well as the hours they work, previous work experience, participation in dental, health and disability plans, income security, and their attitudes towards self-employment. Nearly one worker out of six was self-employed in 2000, and most of these individuals became and remained self-employed by choice, according to the first results from the Survey of Self-employment. Strong growth in the number of self-employed Canadians that was observed in the 1990s stimulated interest in self-employment. Among the existing sources of information on this topic,the most extensive is Statistics Canada article The Self-employed in the publication Labour force update (71-005-XPB, Autumn 1997, Vol. 1 no.3.) which portrayed the self-employed using data from the Labour Force Survey (LFS), the annual Survey of Consumer Finances, and the 1995 Survey of Work Arrangements. It provided a thorough picture of the basic socio-demographic characteristics of this population, but due to the lack of data it did not cover several specific aspects of self-employment. Human Resources Development undertook to enrich the data sources on self-employment by funding a survey devoted entirely to this topic.

title: Survey of Persons Not in the Labour Force, 1992 [Canada]
title: SPNLF,1992
title: Enquête sur les personnes n'étant pas sur le marché du travail, 1992 [Canada]

description: The Survey of Persons Not In the Labour Force was designed to augment the limited amount of information collected on persons who were neither employed nor unemployed. The major objectives of the survey were to collect information on the past and planned labour market activities of persons not presently in the labour force, and on their current non-labour market activities and sources of financial support. In addition to obtaining information on the activities of all persons not in the labour force, further information was sought for youths who were neither in school nor employed and for retired persons. For youths, information was sought on their school plans, and, for those who were retired, information was collected on the circumstances surrounding the decision to retire. The Survey of Persons Not In the Labour Force was administered in November,1992 to a sub-sample of the dwellings in the Labour Force Survey (LFS) sample,and therefore its sample design is closely tied to that of the LFS.

description: Notes: Question texts and variable groups were added. Label checks in spss were also performed.;Notes: These groups together representan exclusion of approximately 2% of the population aged 15 or over. The SPNLF includes those persons in the civilian non-institutional population 15 years of age and overwho, during the reference week, were neither employed nor unemployed. A small proportion (approximately 1%) of the LFS population is found in institutions (for example, live-in staff of hospitals or schools or permanent residents of hotels or motels), on military bases (civilian personnel only) or in remote areas of provinces which are not readily accessible to LFS interviewers. For administrative purposes, this portion of the population is sampled separately through the special area frame.;

title: Survey of Volunteer Workers, 1980 [Canada]
title: SVW 1980
title: Enquête auprès des travailleurs bénévoles, 1980 [Canada]

description: Because so very little information is available on volunteer work in Canada, this survey has been designed to collect only basic information on volunteer workers in general rather than focusing on the characteristics, activities, or motivations of any particular group of volunteer workers. &lt;br&gt; The survey therefore has as its objective the collection of data which will answer the following questions: &lt;br&gt; i) 'What is the total quality of volunteer work done in Canada?' To answer this we need to know how many people do any volunteer work at all and how many hours of volunteer work are contributed by each of these persons. &lt;br&gt; ii) 'What types of community organizations are served by volunteer workers?' and 'What kind of work do the volunteers do for these agencies?' &lt;br&gt; (iii) Since volunteer work contributes greatly to the quality of life in our communities, it is something to be encouraged. In order to increase or at least maintain the overall supply of volunteer work, it is necessary to know, 'why those who have done volunteer work in the past are no longer doing it?' and 'why those who have given consideration to doing volunteer work have not acted on their intentions?' &lt;br&gt; The survey collects data from volunteer workers in households randomly selected.
