Ted Hildebrandt: Community Development Halton

Census Data Dept: OTTAWA - The first tranche of fresh, new census data is coming out this week, and Ted Hildebrandt is giddy with anticipation, according to Winnipeg Free Press. The data provides invaluable information about affordable housing, immigrants, poverty, income levels, who lives alone, who works and who doesn't. But it's five years old, and Hildebrandt can hardly wait for a brand new set of numbers and the cover of the 2011 Census package is shown in Ottawa on Thursday, May 5, 2011. Fresh 2011 numbers coming out this week will rekindle Canada's centuries-old love affair with census. THE CANADIAN PRESS/Sean Kilpatrick The director of social planning for Community Development Halton has been relying on the 2006 census data to figure out how to make Burlington, Ont., more receptive to seniors determining where they live, how quickly they're aging, and what kind of services are lacking at the community level.
