They sent me a census form, so I'm counted already, why bother with the rest of it?
I can't move more that a few bucks around between banks without an annonomus phone call from someone who might even be my neighbour.
I moved a airplane into BC and the engine wasn't even cold when I received a phone call from the government. I moved it back out of BC and sold it, but it was shock to see how closly we are watched, and that was 15 years ago.
Try collecing UI or OLd Age and someone is on you right now. If you die the banks and government close your account before the kids know you are dead.
This census is "just because we can" voyeurism. It's not like the old days when all the farmers and peasants didn't get off the farm and tax collectors had to go looking for how many new brats they had.
I'm not filling out the form, and some silly that has all my info at their finger tips, will be phoning me. The census has a purpose but it's not about collecting new information, but has more to do with keeping us compliant and obedient.

Jump through the hoop little doggy. Being a bad doggy costs $500 every five years.

I was surprised at how invasive the questionaire was. It's one thing to ask how many people are living in our home, their ages, their education, their ancestry and heritage etc. But, when the questions delved into our incomes, the value of our homes, the size of our mortgage payments etc. I felt that they pushed the envelope.

Again, they pushed it too far. They asked for too much. As a result, the information they received will not be accurate. People will resent the intrusion. I agree and don't blame them. The questionairre I received was downright nosy and not appreciated. Chester

Ummm, I'm telling on you.
