2026 Federal Census Reminder
Statistics Canada would like to remind you that the 2026 Census is underway and every response counts!
The census helps paint a statistical portrait of Canada's diverse population and the places where we live by collecting demographic, social and economic information from households across Canada.
Canadians rely on census data for information that support important decisions that affect Canadian families, communities and businesses. The information you provide ensures that the census accurately reflects Canada's changing society. Your responses are vital for planning services that support employment, education, public transportation, health care, and more.
How to complete the 2026 Census
All Canadian households receive a census invitation letter in the mail with instructions on how to complete their questionnaire. Completing the online questionnaire at census.gc.ca is secure and confidential.
Confidentiality and security
Statistics Canada places the highest priority on protecting your privacy as well as maintaining the confidentiality and security of completed questionnaires. Your answers are collected under the authority of the Statistics Act and are kept strictly confidential.
