In conclusion

The products and services generated from the census database are developed after careful consideration – clients are consulted about their needs, past products are evaluated for their use and cost effectiveness, and new technologies are explored for increased efficiency and cost savings.

Consultation input improves the census products and services line and leads to new dissemination opportunities.

This consultation guide has been developed to help users convey their ideas and suggestions to Statistics Canada. It presents information related to the dissemination program, details on the 2006 Census products and services line and proposed directions for 2011. Ongoing discussion helps to keep Statistics Canada abreast of emerging data needs.

Your comments will be included in the consultation database and will be referenced by census and geography specialists throughout the 2011 Census dissemination planning process.

We look forward to hearing from you. Thank you.
