Statistics Canada

StatsCan

What would we do without Statistics Canada?  They just completed a study into what is stressing Canadians.  10,151 people participated in this study for six years and the results are mind blowing.

The common stressors are:

  • doing too many things at once
  • not having enough money
  • marital problems
  • concerns about children

Six years and how many dollars to learn that time pressure is the most common cause of stress amongst Canadians.  I would have told Statistics Canada that in 30 seconds for $5 even.  Hell, I'd have done it for a loonie.

I never have enough time to do everything I need to do.  There's work, a home and car to maintain, a toddler to raise and several hours of sports and "The Simpsons" on the television.  It ain't easy finding time, but somehow I manage.
