Canadian Industry Statistics
This site provides details of various aspects of Canadian economic
activity, emphasizing economics, employment, international trade,
investment, public equity financing, growth indices, and other
business-related information. The Canadian Industry Statistics
site is comprised of 5 main components: The CIS Classic, Public
Equity Financing, Growth Trends, Industry Overview, and other World
Wide Links. The CIS Classic offers data on 230 Canadian manufacturing
industries, focusing on variables such as wages and salaries, number
of employees, operational costs, manufacturing shipments, imports,
exports, and performance by establishment size. It is also possible to
make comparisons across Canadian national averages in various statistics
for each manufacturing industry. This information is available for
downloading in WordPerfect format. The Industry Overview serves as a
complementary function to CIS Classic by providing an analysis of Canadian
industry trends in production, investment, research and development,
employment, and trade. The section also provides comparative analyses of
Canadian and U.S. industries.
