RE: Comparing different provinces in same survey:

Wouldn't another way to do that be to use the full sample with the regular weights, and then use separate dummy variables for each province and do an F-test that all coefficients are the same? That might be a way to get around the re-weighting/re-normalizing problem, at least for some analyses.
