About Provincial surveys

Participation in all BC Stats’ surveys is voluntary but very important. By taking the time answer survey questions, you make it possible for BC Stats to continue to produce:

  • Reliable and valid data
  • Data that supports important policy and program decisions

Surveys can be completed by mail, phone or online.

Phone surveys are conducted during the day or evening and sometimes on the weekend. They are administered by various market research firms including Advanis, Leger, R.A. Malatest and Associates and Sentis.
