This release provides data on the research and development activities of the private non-profit sector. Although the contribution of this sector to the national research and development effort is small in dollar terms, (approximately 0.6% of the total research and development performed in Canada for 2001) its impact, particularly in the university and hospital sectors, is significant.

Businesses today are involved in a variety of practices aimed at preventing or reducing environmental degradation generated from their production activity. During the 1990s, the environmental regulation context changed. Increasingly, governments have relied on voluntary initiatives undertaken by businesses to reduce pollutants and waste, as opposed to regulations. However, at the same time, the federal authorities have undertaken to revise the Canadian Environmental Protection Act (CEPA), in order to increase federal power for environmental regulation but with strong emphasis put on promoting pollution prevention. Consequently, businesses today are looking at alternative ways to limit impacts from their operations on the environment.

Environmental Management and Technologies in the Business Sector presents a profile of business demand for environmental processes and technologies, pollution prevention methods and environmental practices, such as environmental management systems and voluntary actions. What types of treatment processes are the most popular ones for reducing gas emissions, liquid, solid and hazardous waste, noise, radiation and vibration, for saving energy or for site reclamation? What is the market for environmental processes and technologies? What pollution prevention methods are used more frequently? What additional environmental practices have businesses adopted (for instance, are voluntary programs more popular than eco-labelling?)?

This paper is based on results from the Survey of Environmental Protection Expenditures. For the first time, the survey asked detailed questions on the type of environmental process or technology used and the adoption of environmental practices. The paper is a complement to both 1996-1997 and 1998 Environmental Protection Expenditures in the Business Sector reports (Catalogue no. 16F0006XIE).

Cyber-crime is a global problem that in many instances transcends national borders. Historically, compiling meaningful statistics about this activity has been difficult because of the reluctance on the part of victims to report these offences to police. However, because of the financial losses sustained, an increasing number of these crimes are being reported to police. As a result, federal, provincial and territorial governments, as well as the police community, are interested in analyzing national trends on cyber-crime and their impact on Canadians.

In response to this need for information, the Canadian Centre for Justice Statistics (CCJS) conducted a Special Study to examine the issues and data sources related to cyber-crime and to investigate the feasibility of collecting quantitative data from police services in Canada. This report examines definitions of cyber-crime, current legislation in Canada and other countries, existing data sources, summarizes results from consultations with selected police forces, and presents options for collecting cyber-crime data from police agencies.

For the 2001 Census, four national maps (covering all of Canada) show the following standard geographic areas:

(a) Census Divisions, 2001 - Shows the census division (CD) boundaries and codes within each province and territory, on a background of major lakes and rivers. The map also lists the CD names in CD code order, by province and territory.

(b) Economic Regions and Census Divisions, 2001 - Shows the economic region (ER) and census division (CD) boundaries and codes within each province and territory. The map also lists, by province and territory, the ER names in ER code order, within which their component CD codes and names are numerically listed.

(c) Census Metropolitan Areas and Census Agglomerations, 2001 - Shows the general location of census metropolitan areas (CMAs) and census agglomerations (CAs) within each province and territory, with large dots designating CMAs and small dots designating CAs. The map also lists the CMA/CA names in CMA/CA code order, by province and territory.

(d) Statistical Area Classification, 2001 Census Subdivisions - Shows census subdivisions (CSDs) classified by colour according to the category of the Statistical Area Classification (SAC) they are assigned to. The categories include: component of a census metropolitan area/census agglomeration, component of a census metropolitan area and census agglomeration influenced zone (strongly influenced, moderately influenced, weakly influenced or not influenced), or component of the north (Northwest Territories, Nunavut and Yukon Territory).

The scale of the CD, ER, and CD, and CMA and CA maps is 1:10,000,000 (with an inset showing southern Quebec and southern Ontario at 1:5,000,000), and their approximate dimensions are 91 cm by 66 cm (36 inches by 26 inches). The approximate size of the PDF files varies between 1.2 MB and 1.4 MB.

The scale of the SAC map is 1:7,500,000 (with an inset showing southern Quebec and southern Ontario at 1:4,000,000), and its approximate dimensions are 91 cm by 91 cm (36 inches by 36 inches). The approximate size of the PDF files is 4.3 MB.

The maps include background information such as rivers, lakes, railroad tracks and provincial boundaries, and other significant features. The map scales range from 1:25,000 to 1:2,000,000, and the maximum map dimensions are approximately 91 cm by 101 cm (36 inches by 40 inches).
