About the CRDCN
Since 2000, in partnership with Statistics Canada and with the support of SSHRC, CIHR, CFI and
participating universities, the Canadian Research Data Centre Network (CRDCN) has transformed
quantitative social science research in Canada. Through this infrastructure comprising more than 25
secure computer laboratories located throughout the country, researchers have access to a vast array
of social, economic and health data from an increasing range of survey, census and administrative
datasets.
In addition to facilitating access to Statistics Canada confidential microdata files, the CRDCN also seek
to expand the pool of highly skilled quantitative researchers in Canada by providing art-of-the-state
training and to make research count by connecting researchers, policy makers and practitioners.
To know more about us, we invite you to visit our website (www.rdc.cdr.ca). To be informed about

Dear Speakers and Participants,, welcome to the
CRDCN 2014 National Conference
It gives me great pleasure to welcome you to this year’s CRDCN research conference. This is
the 12th year for this annual event having begun in 2003. The CRDCN was set up in 2000 to
facilitate and broaden access to confidential Statistics Canada micro-data. From fewer than 10
Research data centres at the time, the network now has 27 access points throughout the country,
where researchers can make use of an ever-widening range of data files.
This year’s conference “seeks to encourage evidence-based reflections on the society we want to
create”. We are in the era of “big data” with its tremendous potential to study society in ways not
possible before. Access to, and study of, very large, high-quality data files are essential for
academic researchers and those who formulate policy.
The CRDCN is Canada’s only national social science research network. It is a tremendous
success story. We are now engaged in discussions about the future of social statistics research in
Canada, and we are eager to assume an increased leadership role in a big data world.
I’d like to thank and congratulate Evelyn Forget, the Academic Director of the University of
Manitoba’s Research Data Centre, and her colleagues, for their outstanding work in organizing
this gathering.
I look forward to this conference and the opportunity of meeting many of you.
Robert McNutt
Executive Director
CRDCN
Dear Colleagues, welcome!
The University of Manitoba is located in Treaty one territory and on the traditional territory of
the Anishinaabe peoples and the homeland of the Metis Nation. Our campuses and the historic
Forks of Winnipeg sit at the crossroads of the Anishinaabe, Metis, Cree, Dakota and Oji-Cree
Nations.
The site of this conference is a storied one. Across the pedestrian bridge over the Red River lies
St. Boniface – the largest francophone community in Canada west of Ottawa. Louis Riel and
many of his comrades in the Northwest Rebellion are interred at St. Boniface Cathedral, and just
a few yards down the road is the Musée de St. Boniface which showcased the infamous (and
possibly misidentified) Bell of Batoche after it was repatriated in 2013 from a legion in Millbrook
Ontario where it was taken as a war trophy after Riel’s capture in 1885. Very near this hotel sits
the imposing Canadian Museum of Human Rights, where we will hold our opening reception on
Wednesday October 29. Inside its walls is one story of human rights. Another is inherent in the
city in which we gather. A few yards from the CMHR and from the conference hotel flows the
Red River from the depths of which the body of 15-year old Tina Fontaine was recovered a few
weeks ago – another missing and murdered aboriginal woman.
As we examine the data collected by Statistics Canada and made available to us through the
CRDCN, let us keep in mind the people behind these data – the women and men, boys and girls,
immigrant and indigenous, francophone, anglophone and allophone, whose lives we hope to
understand better and to make better. These data tell their own stories and contribute new layers
to the ways in which we understand our lives and the society in which we live.
The Manitoba RDC welcomes you to Winnipeg and to the 2014 CRDCN Conference:
Investing in Our Futures. We are pleased to acknowledge the generous financial support of
Statistics Canada, SSHRC, CIHR and the Department of Community Health Sciences at
the University of Manitoba. We are especially grateful for the hard work of Sarah Fortin, Donna
Dosman, Kelly Cranswick, Ian Clara and Gelareh Manghebati in organizing this conference.
Have a wonderful conference!

By the way, the buildings near the river are full of little shops and food kiosks. Check out
the spectacular naked eye observatory at the Oodena Celebration Circle next to the
hotel!
Important Tips for Conference Participants
Room Location of Sessions
All sessions are on the second level of the Inn at the Forks
Parking
All parking is the property of The Forks. For your convenience, meeting attendees may
register their license plate on the registration sheet placed at the registration desk. This
allows you to park for free in the parkade as well as behind the hotel for the scheduled time
of the meeting. This free parking does not include metered parking spots, overnight parking
or the parking lot directly beside The Forks Market. Please read all posted signs carefully
as the Inn at the Forks is not responsible for any parking tickets or towing fees that may be
incurred.
Where to Eat and Drink
The buildings near the river – the Forks Market and the Johnson Terminal – have many
restaurants and quick food kiosks as well as small craft shops. Additional information about
Winnipeg restaurants is available at the registration desk. Chez Sophie Sur le Pont is a
nice café and a short walk from the hotel.
Visit of The Canadian Museum for Human Rights
Our tour will take place when the museum is closed. You should meet inside the group
entrance at 6 pm on Wednesday, which is a very short walk from the hotel. If you have
mobility issues, please let us know. It is a big museum and some of the ramps are steep.
