- Articles and reports: 36-28-0001202300300003Description: In Canada and other advanced economies, the share of zombie firms, defined as businesses that perform poorly over a long period of time without exiting, has been rising over the past few decades.

This product presents the Public Sector Universe, defined by Statistics Canada as a list of institutional units that are included in the economic measurement of governments in Canada. An institutional unit is defined as an economic entity that is capable, in its own right, of owning assets, incurring liabilities, and engaging in economic activities and in transactions with other entities. It includes the sectors of education, health, general government and government business enterprise sectors for all levels of government in Canada, annually, since 2008. The list has been disseminated in stages over the last few years. We now have one remaining sector to add (indigenous) which will take place in future releases.
