Census takers will be out on the town starting Friday.

They’re collecting information on the total number of residents, home owners, pre-school children, and school system support.

The information is used for a number of things including determining future schools, and how much money the city gets from the provincial government.

The census taker will wear a photo identification badge, and leave a notice with a number for you to call if you’re not home.
