Thousands of census employees across the country are helping collect data that are vital to improving the lives of Canadians. These are your family, friends or neighbours making a difference for your community.

If you haven't completed your questionnaire yet and we follow up with you, here’s how to recognize official census communications:

📩 Reminder letters will be sent by mail or delivered in person, which will contain a secure access code to complete the census questionnaire online.

🪪 In person follow-ups will be conducted by employees with an identification card.

📱 Text message reminders may also be sent from the text message short code number 236732.

📞 If a follow-up phone call to a household is needed, the census employees will identify themselves clearly.

There is still time to see this exhibit by Trafalgar’s grade 9 art students.

Public school dollars should follow public school kids.

We’re hearing a lot about “money following the child.”

But public funding exists to support a system; one that serves every child, in every community, with public accountability.

Public schools are that system.

Private systems are NOT.

Public schools belong to everyone.

Join us on May 5 as we gather in remembrance, solidarity, and action for Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls (MMIWG). This day is a time to honour the lives lost, support families and communities, and raise awareness of the ongoing crisis.

We will begin with a march from Cottonwood Park to City Hall. Participants are encouraged to bring their drums as we walk together in unity and remembrance.

Following the march, we will gather at the Nelson Museum Archives & Gallery for light snacks and refreshments. This will be a space to connect, reflect, and support one another.

Afterward, attendees are invited to visit the REDress exhibit inside the museum. This powerful installation, created by Métis artist Jaime Black, serves as a visual reminder of the missing and murdered Indigenous women and girls, calling attention to their absence and the need for justice.

All are welcome to attend. Please come with respect and an open heart.
