Clarification - Embassy article and ALL Statistics Canada Data will be free

[Tracey P. Lauriault]

Peter;

A recent Embassy article headline stated that all Statistics Canada
Data will be free.  I wonder if you could clarify if it means the
following data:

a) http://www.statcan.gc.ca/trade-commerce/data-donnee-eng.htm
b) all these accounts - http://www.statcan.gc.ca/nea-cen/index-eng.htm
c) all of these at CT and DA geographies, not just for 2012 but for
previous censuses also -
http://www12.statcan.gc.ca/census-recensement/2006/dp-pd/prof/92-591/index.cfm?Lang=E
d) All of statistics Canada's surveys current and older (here is a
subset) http://www.statcan.gc.ca/survey-enquete/index-eng.htm
e) The data used to inform these -
http://cansim2.statcan.gc.ca/cgi-win/cnsmcgi.pgm?Lang=E&ResultTemplate=/Stu-Etu/Anal_Rch7&ChunkSize=25&AS_Theme=0&ChunkStart=1&AS_Date=.&AS_Ser=.&AS_Auth=.&AS_Srch=&AS_SORT=0&AS_UNIV=7&Version=2&AS_Mode=27
e) What of the pricing and licensing for cross tabulations and data
required by special geographies such as city wards, health districts
and neighbourhoods?
f) Trade division and other special division data?

I am very excited when I see the word All data, and I would just like
to confirm that is in fact the case.  If not, can you provide a list
of what actually will be free and what will not?

Sincerely
Tracey
