I got it and my inner Libertarian was furious as I was going through my old Hydro Ottawa bills from 2025.
Took a total of ten minutes. I’m just petty.
Hey, Tod Maffin seems like a decent and upstanding guy!
I wanted the long form. My husband who is more suspicious of government security was happy not to have long form.
Damn they wrote an article about me
If you want a long form go live in a remote region. All census forms in remote regions are long forms with addition questions too.
I got one. Can’t help but think most of this info are things they already know. Am I a citizen? You know this. Was I born here? You know this. Where do I live? You mailed me the letter mate.
This is the first year in many that I didn’t get the long form. Thank fuck.
What I found odd was that they mailed mine on May 5th, and they expected it back by the 12th.
Some more lead time would be nice, assholes. I can go a week or more without checking my mailbox. All of my bills are e-bills. If I’m not expecting lettermail or parcels, I only do the junk mail recycling run one or two times a month.
That was a great premise for comedy.
I was a little disappointed that they felt they had to go with course language that I tend not to share with my kids or circle of friends.
I got long form census and it asked me which language my son speaks the most, which he started speaking first, and which languages he speaks.
He’s 11 months and no, saying „He does not speak yet“ or selecting none was not an option!
My wife and I both tried to enter the code into the website to fill it out and it wouldn’t work. We tried everything. Oh well
The pain is real!
I told my husband dont start without me. We sat down together, and were done so quickly. I was so disappointed. I am going to have to wait another five years for a 20% chance to get the long form.
Man they hounded me about that census like chill im working to jobs 🥲
At some point around asking about property taxes and furnace oil I just started typing in numbers that seemed kind of plausible since I wasn’t going to go look things up.
I got downvoted in another sub for saying I’m glad there’s a good chance I’ll be dead in ten years so I won’t have to deal with something so long and intrusive again.
I’m legitimately always happy to get the long form. I love it because I regularly use Stats Canada’s demographics data for what can only be described as… fun? Personal enjoyment?
