How the Heck do I Find and Use Statistics Canada Data on Religion and Nonreligion? A Crash Course for Graduate Students with Sarah Wilkins-Laflamme

How the Heck do I Find and Use Statistics Canada Data on Religion and Nonreligion?

Navigating census data can be overwhelming, especially for students looking to explore trends in religiosity in Canada. To help prepare students for the upcoming release of Statistics Canada’s 2021 census data, we offered this graduate student webinar, led by NCF Collaborator Sarah Wilkins-Laflamme (University of Waterloo) and co-hosted by the Canadian Corporation for Studies in Religion. This virtual workshop helps to illuminate the background and usages of recent Statistics Canada data, unriddle questions about data access and interpretation to fill in remaining gaps in students’ roadmaps to successful statistics sleuthing.
