- 1. Shifts in spending patterns of older Canadians ArchivedArticles and reports: 75-001-X20051128982Geography: CanadaDescription:
As households age and labour market attachment diminishes, income, savings and wealth generally become less. Households also become smaller as adult children leave or a spouse dies. And spending patterns change. Using 'similar' households, this study looks at changes in spending patterns for households headed by persons aged 55 or older in 1982 and 2003.
Release date: 2005-12-20 - 2. Christmas Shopping: A Provincial Perspective ArchivedArticles and reports: 11-621-M2005034Geography: Canada, Province or territoryDescription:
This article analyses Holiday retail sales in 2004 by commodity as well as by province and territory using data from the Monthly Retail Trade Survey and the Quarterly Retail Commodity Survey. Western Canadians led the country last Christmas in December 2004, with Albertans spending more per capita in retail stores than consumers in any other province. For Canada as a whole, the pace of growth in sales in stores doubled in December 2004 compared with the same month in 2003. What did shoppers buy besides toys and clothing? Jewellery, cameras and small electrical appliances were very popular gift items for the season.
Release date: 2005-12-07 - 3. Canada's trade and investment with China ArchivedArticles and reports: 11-010-X20050068037Geography: CanadaDescription:
Trade with China continued to grow rapidly last year, with exports outstripping imports thanks to our natural resources. Some new patterns emerged, notably imports of auto parts and the first significant export of energy products. Despite soaring trade flows, direct investment remains low in both directions.
Release date: 2005-06-16 - 4. How Supply Management Works ArchivedSurveys and statistical programs – Documentation: 96-328-M2004038Description:
This activity introduces students to the concept of supply management. Students will consider the advantages and disadvantages for both producers and consumers. It would be a good basis for discussion in an economics class.
Release date: 2005-03-18 - 5. The soaring loonie and international travel ArchivedArticles and reports: 11-010-X20050027773Geography: Canada, Province or territoryDescription:
The close link between our exchange rate and cross-border shopping has broken down since 2002. More broadly, this is part of a worldwide slump in travel to the US. Meanwhile, travel to Canada from overseas has risen sharply. The increasingly Asian source of this travel has favoured Western Canada as a destination.
