The public use microdata file (PUMF) from the Canadian Internet Use Survey (CIUS) provides data on the adoption and use of digital technologies and the online behaviors of individuals 15 years of age and older living in the ten provinces of Canada. The survey is built off the previous iteration of the CIUS, last conducted in 2012. While there is some comparability with the 2012 CIUS, the 2018 survey was redesigned in 2018 to reflect the rapid pace at which Internet technology has evolved since the previous survey iteration. The files include information on how individuals use the Internet, smartphones, and social networking websites and apps, including their intensity of use, demand for certain online activities, and interactions through these technologies. It also provides information on the use of online government services, digital skills, online work, and security, privacy and trust as it relates to the Internet.

In 1991, the National Task Force on Health Information cited a number of issues and problems with the health information system. To respond to these issues, the Canadian Institute for Health Information (CIHI), Statistics Canada and Health Canada joined forces to create a Health Information Roadmap. From this mandate, the Canadian Community Health Survey (CCHS) was conceived. The CCHS is a cross-sectional survey that collects information related to health status, health care utilization and health determinants for the Canadian population. The survey is offered in both official languages. It relies upon a large sample of respondents and is designed to provide reliable estimates at the health region level every 2 years. The CCHS has the following objectives: - Support health surveillance programs by providing health data at the national, provincial and intra-provincial levels; - Provide a single data source for health research on small populations and rare characteristics; - Timely release of information easily accessible to a diverse community of users; - Create a flexible survey instrument that includes a rapid response option to address emerging issues related to the health of the population. The CCHS produces an annual microdata file and a file combining two years of data. The CCHS collection years with both consistent design and consistent population representation can also be combined by users to examine populations or rare characteristics. The primary use of the CCHS data is for health surveillance and population health research. Federal and provincial departments of health and human resources, social service agencies, and other types of government agencies use the information collected from respondents to monitor, plan, implement and evaluate programs to improve the health of Canadians. Researchers from various fields use the information to conduct research to improve health. Non-profit health organizations and the media use the CCHS results to raise awareness about health, an issue of concern to all Canadians. The survey began collecting data in 2001 and was repeated every two years until 2005. Starting in 2007, data for the Canadian Community Health Survey (CCHS) were collected annually instead of every two years. While a sample of approximately 130,000 respondents were interviewed during the reference periods of 2001, 2003 and 2005, the sample size was changed to 65,000 respondents each year starting in 2007. The CCHS has undergone two major redesigns. The first in 2015 reviewed the sampling methodology, adopted a new sample frame, modernized and updated its health content, and reviewed the target population. The second in 2022, further reviewed and updated the content of the survey as well as transitioned it to an online electronic questionnaire (EQ) that was available for direct self reporting by selected respondents. Consultations were held with federal, provincial and territorial share partners, health region authorities and academics for both redesigns. As a result of these redesigns and major changes to collection and sampling approaches as well as content updates, caution should be taken when comparing data from previous cycles to data released for the 2015 and 2021 and for data released 2022 and onwards.

The Travel Survey of Residents of Canada (TSRC) is a major source of data used to measure the size and status of Canada's tourism industry. It was developed to quantify the volume, the characteristics and the economic impact of domestic travel. For the system of national accounts, TSRC measures the size of domestic travel in Canada from the demand side. Since the beginning of 2005, the Travel Survey of Residents of Canada (TSRC) has been conducted to measure domestic travel in Canada. It replaces the Canadian Travel Survey (CTS). Featuring several definitional changes and a new questionnaire, this survey provides estimates of domestic travel that are more in line with the international guidelines recommended by the World Tourism Organization (WTO) and the United Nations Statistical Commission. In 2011, TSRC underwent a redesign. The Travel Survey of Residents of Canada is sponsored by Statistics Canada, the Canadian Tourism Commission, and the provincial governments. It measures the size of domestic travel in Canada from the demand side. The objectives of the survey are to provide information about the volume of trips and expenditures for Canadian residents by trip origin, destination, duration, type of accommodation used, trip reason, mode of travel, etc.; to provide information on travel incidence and to provide the socio-demographic profile of travellers and non-travellers. Estimates allow quarterly analysis at the national, provincial and tourism region level (with varying degrees of precision) on: total volume of same-day and overnight trips taken by the residents of Canada with destinations in Canada, same-day and overnight visits in Canada, main purpose of the trip/key activities on trip, spending on same-day and overnight trips taken in Canada by Canadian residents in total and by category of expenditure, modes of transportation (main/other) used on the trip, person-visits, household-visits, spending in total and by expense category for each location visited in Canada, person- and household-nights spent in each location visited in Canada, in total and by type of accommodation used, use of travel packages and associated spending and source of payment (household, government, private employer), demographics of adults that took or did not take trips, and travel party composition. The main users of the TSRC data are Statistics Canada, the Canadian Tourism Commission, the provinces, and tourism boards. Other users include the media, businesses, consultants and researchers.

The Canadian Digital Health Survey is a series of surveys conducted annually commissioned by Canada Health Infoway (Infoway) through a third-party vendor. Overall, the main objective of these surveys is to investigate interest and use of digital health technologies nationwide.

The Canadian Heart Health Database (CHHDB) is an integration of data from ten Provincial Heart Health Surveys conducted between 1986 and 1992. The Provincial Heart Health Surveys were conducted as part of the Canadian Heart Health Initiative and have been a collaborative effort among provincial departments of health, Health Canada and The Heart and Stroke Foundation of Canada. The origin of the collaborative approach to cardiovascular disease prevention (CVD) lies in a report prepared by the Federal Provincial Working Group on Cardiovascular Disease Prevention and Control. The Canadian Heart Health Database consists of two sets of integrated data: core information collected by all ten provincial surveys, and family history information collected by only four provinces — Quebec, Ontario Saskatchewan and Alberta. The objective of the surveys was to estimate at the provincial level, the prevalence of CVD risk factors, the knowledge and awareness levels of CVD causes, the consequences of CVD, and the associated risk factors and lifestyle behaviours.

The 2020 GSS on Social Identity interviewed individuals 15 years and over in Canada's ten provinces and was conducted from August 2020 to February 2021. The interviews were conducted via self-assisted electronic questionnaire (respondent EQ, or rEQ) and by telephone via interviewer-assisted electronic questionnaire (interviewer EQ, or iEQ, formerly known as Computer Assisted Telephone Interviewing (CATI)). Data are subject to both sampling and non-sampling errors. These topics are discussed in detail in this guide. The 2020 SI survey is the fourth cycle of the GSS to collect data on social identity, social engagement, and social networks. The previous iteration of the survey (Cycle 27 - Social Identity) was collected in 2013, the second was Cycle 22 - Social Networks in 2008, and the first was Cycle 17 - Social Engagement in 2003.

The first phase of the Households and the Environment Survey (HES) measures the environmental practices and behaviours of Canadian households that relate to the condition of our air, water and soils. The Households and the Environment Survey: Energy Use phase 3 (HEUS phase 3) is a follow up on the Households and the Environment survey (HES phase 1) and on the Households and the Environment Survey: Energy Use phase 2 (HEUS phase 2). The goal of the survey is to obtain permission from householders to collect information on their energy consumption from their energy provider(s). During HEUS phase 3, the energy providers are contacted in order to obtain the energy consumption data for the respondents who filled the consent form in HEUS phase 2. Together, the 3 phases of this survey were designed to collect data to develop and improve three key environmental indicators: air quality, water quality and greenhouse gas emissions.
