The new federal Parliament provided funding for the census and other statistical activities within the Ministry of Agriculture. The ministry conducted decennial censuses in and thereafter every 10 years.
The censuses enumerated households and individuals, as well as collecting data on agriculture , manufacturing , mining and governments. Various federal agencies gathered other administrative data.
They collected and reported statistics based on their administrative duties, however, and not as part of a program of national statistics.
This statistical work, which covered various subjects, such as banks, insurance companies, railways , crimes and the labour force , evolved incidentally to administrative activities and was not central to the work of each agency. As a result, federal statistical work was dispersed and uncoordinated in the late s. Because a new staff was recruited for each decennial census, it lacked the training, organization and productivity of a stable team.
The Census and Statistics Act of created a permanent Census and Statistics Office, which improved the staffing for decennial censuses and the coordination of other statistical activities.
The census and related activities functioned better with a stable office staff. But the new census office did not work across federal departments. Other government departments continued to take on new work, increasing the amount of uncoordinated federal data collection. Confederation also distributed responsibility for the administration of statistics between the national, provincial and local governments.
Federalism, which gave local governments authority over statistical data collection, greatly complicated reporting by dividing work between many authorities from all three levels of government. The effects of uncoordinated federal statistics became increasingly apparent by the early s. The need for change became clearer when the Census and Statistics Office was transferred from the Department of Agriculture to the Department of Trade and Commerce in With the move to a different federal department, a commission was formed under the direction of Sir George E.
Foster to review the collection and publication of statistics. The creation of a central statistical office was delayed by the enormous time and effort Canada committed to the First World War.
Once the government was able to turn to other legislative matters, it followed most of the recommendations of the Foster Commission, passing the Statistics Act of and establishing a central statistical system in the new Dominion Bureau of Statistics. The Dominion Bureau of Statistics took over the existing activities for annual censuses of industry and decennial censuses of population, housing and agriculture. It also assumed responsibilities for statistics on trade and commerce, crime, transportation and other general statistics.
The new central statistical office was mandated to work with other federal agencies to collect and publish statistics. Robert H. Coats served as the first Dominion statistician. In the first years of the Dominion Bureau of Statistics, the new unit worked to improve census work, take over and integrate many statistical functions from other departments, and develop relationships for the collection of new data. The Dominion Bureau of Statistics developed a successful model for provincial-federal collaboration in this area.
While vital statistics are collected and tabulated at the provincial level, coordination between provincial and federal agencies benefits both levels of government. Recognizing this, provincial-federal groups developed uniform definitions for birth and death data, established common administrative procedures, and eventually used the same birth and death forms. Local authorities would collect information on births and deaths and forward copies of the forms to the provincial office, which in turn would tabulate data in a common format for processing and reporting to the Dominion Bureau of Statistics.
By the s, the state of national statistics had improved greatly. New statistics were being collected and existing ones were improved. Much progress had occurred with provincial-federal cooperation. Censuses of fisheries , mining, forestry and hydroelectric power were conducted annually.
Agricultural statistics were improved with annual data on crops and livestock and monthly data on crop conditions. Older statistics were reorganized and improved for trade, transportation, crime and immigration.
The bureau began new statistical data collection on interprovincial trade and trends in provincial prices of goods and services. Canada experienced a major economic depression from to In , bureau salaries were reduced by 10 per cent and all unoccupied permanent positions were eliminated. The bureau managed to maintain activities during this period by increasing the number of temporary workers and assigning responsibilities to staff that sometimes went beyond their classifications or salary levels.
What was lacking throughout the Great Depression were crucial statistics on unemployment , hours and weeks worked, and wages and salaries. These data were not collected until On the eve of the Second World War in , the Dominion Bureau of Statistics had become a competent, well-organized central statistical office. It had an excellent Dominion statistician in R. Coats, it was staffed with trained personnel, and its statistical program ably covered a wide range of social and economic areas.
Nevertheless, the wartime economy and government required a greater variety of statistics to support wartime planning and management. The bureau began collecting data for statistics on the cost of living, monthly payrolls and expanded information on industry.
It continued to collect some of these data series after the war, but discontinued others. Statistical sampling methods had developed in the s, and the Dominion Bureau of Statistics began to use them widely during the Second World War. The bureau created a branch to research and develop new statistical methods. Also during the early s, it began to implement a Standard Industrial Classification SIC system for the compilation of industry statistics.
Better data were needed on employment and unemployment. The expansion of pensions and health care required more precise statistical information for policy planning. Overall, the challenge in the postwar period was to improve existing statistics and develop new ones to serve changing social and economic planning.
To streamline its work, the bureau established two new units after the war.
