The government of Canada is interested in assessing the impact of the recent decline in the Canadian dollar on the economies of the country as well as the provinces and territories. Specifically, the impact on the manufacturing establishments. For the sampling design, a sample of establishments was to be drawn across the country using a simple random sampling (SRS). As the sampling methodologist (statistician) on the panel, explain to the members of the panel, why the use of a stratified random sampling may be more appropriate than the SRS approach.
