Canadians finding more time to relax: StatsCan

Ok, this proves StatsCan has lost its way!!! Actually, it probably shows the economy is still in bad shape and there are a lot of unemployed and underemployed:

OTTAWA — Believe it or not, Canadians are actually less pressed for time than they were a decade ago, a new study suggests.

The Statistics Canada study, done last year and released Tuesday, found 29 per cent of respondents said they had "no time for fun."

That was down from 38 per cent in 1998.

As well, 34 per cent said they felt "trapped in a daily routine," down from 39 per cent 12 years earlier.
