Thomas Storring: Census Data

Population Figures Dept: Statistics Canada will release the population and dwelling counts for the country, provinces and municipalities, based on what Canadians reported on 2011 census forms, updating the 2006 information, according to The Chronicle Herald. Every census, this is something we all struggle against, said Storring and the rollout of the quinquennial collection of census data starts today with population figures, and a provincial economist is sounding a note of caution. But Thomas Storring, the provincial Finance Department s director of economics and statistics, said that is not the same as population estimates used by most economists and planners.
