Literacy Quebec Podcast

Do stats really count? A Conversation with Statistics Canada Welcome to the 5th episode of season 4 of the Literacy Quebec Podcast! In this week’s episode we are talking about statistics!  Numbers can be scary and confusing, but with help from Samuel Dupéré, Manager, Montréal Data Service Centre, Statistics Canada we learn why data is important and how we can learn to use data to advocate and show impact. We also learn that it is important to ask the right questions and how to look for reliable sources of information.  Statistics Canada is a public service that is available to community members and is a valuable resource especially to non-profit organisations.
