The 2011 Census
Early in May, yellow census packages will be delivered to every dwelling in Canada, providing residents the information they need to complete the census online or on paper. Completed questionnaires will provide valuable information that will be used by all levels of government to make decisions about your neighbourhood and community.
Census information is important for all communities and is vital for planning services such as schools, daycare, police services and fire protection.
Complete the census questionnaire today. You can do this online at www.census2011.gc.ca. If you have a paper questionnaire, complete and return it in the green envelope. For more information, visit www.census2011.gc.ca or call 1-877-777-2011. TTY users may call 1-866-753-7083.
If you receive the National Household Survey (NHS) questionnaire, you can complete it online at the same time you complete the census. For more information, visit www.nhs.statcan.gc.ca or call 1-877-308-2777. TTY users may call 1-866-753-7083.

Several operators use Nootka Sound as a world-class nurturing environment for production of clams and oysters. Tray oysters, Japanese littleneck clams and blue point oysters can be raised successfully in Nootka Sound. The Estevan Point - Cape Cook region is the prime area for shellfish growing on Vancouver Island. The Mowachaht/Muchalaht First Nation is in a strong position to benefit from wise use of these resources. A mild climate, inexpensive housing, good school system, internet access, competitive tax rates plus "no commute" make Gold River an attractive place in which to live and do business.
