I know that completing the census is mandatory for citizens and permanent residents in Canada, but does that also apply to tourists? I know a country that enforces mandatory census completion for both citizens and tourists (like Australia for example: they stipulate that even non-citizens are made to fill up the census form despite the fact they don’t live there, why should it concern them in the first place?).

    If you’re staying in a hotel how are you going to complete de census? If you’re a tourist staying at an airbnb then most definitely the obligation of filling it isn’t yours but your landlord’s.

      Airbnb owners aren’t landlords to their guests but I understand the usage, if only because “host” also implies a relationship that isn’t quite right either.
