Interviewer instructions

H2. Tenure

Mark the circle labelled owned if you and/or another member of this household own or are buying the dwelling in which you live, even if the dwelling is on rented or leased land, or if it is part of a condominium.
For census purposes, a condominium is a multi-unit residential complex in which dwellings are owned individually while land is held in joint ownership with others.
Mark the circle labelled rented in all other cases, even if the dwelling you occupy is provided without cash rent or at a reduced rent (for example, a minister's residence or a superintendent's dwelling in an apartment building). Also, mark the circle labelled rented if the dwelling is part of a co-operative.
For census purposes, a co-operative is jointly owned by all members who occupy their dwelling units under a lease agreement.
