The input-output tables for reference years 2007 and 2008 released today have been revised to align with estimates for 2009 forward. They incorporate important conceptual, classification, and statistical changes from previously published estimates introduced at the time of the 2012 comprehensive revision of the Canadian System of Macroeconomic Accounts. The back-casted tables for 2007 and 2008 were estimated at the Link 1997 aggregation level for both industries and commodities. They are aligned with gross domestic product estimates from the provincial economic accounts published in November 2013.
The main purpose of the back-casted tables is to provide continuity for analytical uses of the input-output tables. While sufficient for this purpose, the quality of the revised 2007 and 2008 tables is not equivalent to ongoing estimates generated via direct compilation, as approximate modelling techniques were applied in their re-estimation.
Data are available in the products National Input-Output Tables (Catalogue number15F0041X), Provincial Input-Output Tables (Catalogue number15F0042X), Interprovincial Trade Flows (IPTF) (Catalogue number15F0002X) from the Browse by Key resource module of our website under Publications.
