The Survey on Social Connections - Well-being in Canada (SSC-WC) is a new survey in 2025. This project is collected as part of the Disaggregated Data Action Plan (DDAP) with the objective of producing detailed statistical information highlighting the lived experiences of specific population groups, as well as increased analytical insights on diverse groups of people. Questionnaire content will cover a variety of social topics. 

The frame of the survey is constructed using the 2021 Census Edit & Imputation database combined with a sample of recent immigrants from the Longitudinal Immigration Database (IMDB) file and recent files received from Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC). The SSC-WC was designed to provide estimates within racialized groups and immigration status categories.
