[QUOTE="Nesikep, post: 1186125, member: 9096"] I just downloaded the Statistics act, and it IS mandatory to reply, however I don't feel comfortable giving my information out over the phone.. anyone could pretend to be StatsCan. We told them if you wanted us to answer, send it by mail... They keep phoning. I'm going to have to look at what consists of harassment in legal terms and fire back at them with that. They say the maximum penalty for not replying, or providing false information is $500 and/or 3 months jail. IIRC I do agree with you that knowing cattle numbers, trends, etc can well be used against the industry... If you know there'll be a million more calves available next fall, you aren't going to bid high for calves in the spring are you? [/QUOTE]
