  71C0018

  Description:

  The Labour Income Profile shows the number of men and women with labour income and the total amount of each income type, including wages, salaries and commissions, self-employment income and Employment Insurance (EI) benefits.

  Median dollar figures are provided for total income and employment income. Medians are also expressed as a percentage of the figure for the province/territory and for Canada. The statistics are derived primarily from the annual tax file provided by the Canada Revenue Agency.

  Data for some geographic areas are available since 1986. The latest data (2014) can be requested for Canada, provinces and territories, federal electoral districts, economic regions, census divisions, census metropolitan areas, census agglomerations, census tracts and certain postal geographies.

• 2. Comparing Income Statistics from Different Sources: Aggregate Income, 2005 Archived

  Articles and reports: 75F0002M2010002

  Description:

  This report compares the aggregate income estimates as published by four different statistical programs. The System of National Accounts provides a portrait of economic activity at the macro economic level. The three other programs considered generate data from a micro-economic perspective: two are survey based (Census of Population and Survey of Labour and Income Dynamics) and the third derives all its results from administrative data (Annual Estimates for Census Families and Individuals). A review of the conceptual differences across the sources is followed by a discussion of coverage issues and processing discrepancies that might influence estimates. Aggregate income estimates with adjustments where possible to account for known conceptual differences are compared. Even allowing for statistical variability, some reconciliation issues remain. These are sometimes are explained by the use of different methodologies or data gathering instruments but they sometimes also remain unexplained.
