- 121. Research and development (R&D) expenditures of private non-profit (PNP) organizations, 2002 ArchivedStats in brief: 88-001-X20040047867Description:
This release provides data on the Research and Development activities of the private non-profit sector. The growing partnerships between Universities, Hospitals and Research Institutes has reduced the impact of the Private Non-Profit sector in the national Research and Development effort. Due to the decreasing magnitude of this sector, we will no longer feature the PNP data in our Service Bulletin series. Statistics Canada will continue to collect the data as it contributes to Gross Expenditures on Research and Development (GERD). Users are invited to contact us for special requests. We would like to take this opportunity to thank all of the private non-profit organizations for their continued cooperation.
Release date: 2004-04-08 - 122. Terms of trade, GDP and the exchange rate ArchivedArticles and reports: 11-010-X20040036835Geography: CanadaDescription:
This article focus on the reasons for the recent sharp shift in Canada's terms of trade and the distributional effects on the economy, which have already been considerable. We also look to the recent American experience with a sharply rising dollar as a guide to how different sectors of the economy could gain or lose from these changes. The terms of international trade - defined as the ratio of our export prices to import prices - shifted in favour of importers at the expenses of exporters.
Release date: 2004-03-25 - 123. Measuring concentration of R&D spending by industry ArchivedArticles and reports: 88-003-X20030036655Geography: CanadaDescription:
Although there were over 8,000 companies in Canada reporting research and development (R&D) expenditures in 2000, only 30 of these accounted for over half of all business R&D spending. The result is that only a small number of companies in key industries have a significant impact on Canada's total $11.4 billion business R&D spending. The highest levels of concentration of R&D spending were found in the communications equipment manufacturing sector, while computer systems design and related services showed the lowest.
Release date: 2003-10-20 - 124. The growing importance of business R&D ArchivedArticles and reports: 88-003-X20030036659Geography: CanadaDescription:
One of the most commonly used measures of research and development (R&D) performance is the GERD/GDP ratio or total R&D expenditures (Gross Domestic Expenditures on Research and Development) as a percentage of Gross Domestic Product (GDP). How does Canada compare with the other members of the G-7 and the OECD in terms of its GERD/GDP ratio? From 1989 to 1999, Canada reported the highest level of growth among G-7 countries.
Release date: 2003-10-20 - 125. Industrial research and development ArchivedStats in brief: 88-001-X20030057878Description:

Release date: 2003-05-26 - 127. A generalization of the Lavallée and Hidiroglou algorithm for stratification in business Surveys ArchivedArticles and reports: 12-001-X20020026432Description:
This paper suggests stratification algorithms that account for a discrepancy between the stratification variable and the study variable when planning a stratified survey design. Two models are proposed for the change between these two variables. One is a log-linear regression model; the other postulates that the study variable and the stratification variable coincide for most units, and that large discrepancies occur for some units. Then, the Lavallée and Hidiroglou (1988) stratification algorithm is modified to incorporate these models in the determination of the optimal sample sizes and of the optimal stratum boundaries for a stratified sampling design. An example illustrates the performance of the new stratification algorithm. A discussion of the numerical implementation of this algorithm is also presented.
Release date: 2003-01-29 - 128. Research and development (R&D) expenditures of private non-profit (PNP) organizations, 2001 ArchivedStats in brief: 88-001-X20020097886Description:
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.
Release date: 2002-12-24 - 129. The unified enterprise survey - its approach to quality ArchivedSurveys and statistical programs – Documentation: 11-522-X20010016229Description:
This paper discusses the approach that Statistics Canada has taken to improve the quality of annual business surveys through their integration in the Unified Enterprise Survey (UES). The primary objective of the UES is to measure the final annual sales of goods and services accurately by province, in sufficient detail and in a timely manner.
This paper describes the methodological approaches that the UES has used to improve financial and commodity data quality in four broad areas. These include improved coherence of the data collected from different levels of the enterprise, better coverage of industries, better depth of information (in the sense of more content detail and estimates for more detailed domains) and better consistency of the concepts and methods across industries.
The approach, in achieving quality, has been to (a) establish a base measure of the quality of the business survey program prior to the UES, (b) measure the annual data quality of the UES, and (c) carry out specific studies to better understand the quality of UES data and methods.
Release date: 2002-09-12 - 130. The development of the UK annual business inquiry ArchivedArticles and reports: 11-522-X20010016263Description:
This paper discusses in detail issues dealing with the technical aspects of designing and conducting surveys. It is intended for an audience of survey methodologists.
This paper describes the Annual Business Inquiry (ABI) project to integrate the Office for National Statistics' (ONS) main, annual business surveys, regardless of economic sectors. The ABI project also brings together employment and financial data surveys and is capable of generating a wide range of subnational analyses, another objective of the development. Methodological aspects covered by the paper include sample design; estimation and outlier treatment; apportionment of data from reporting units to local units (individual sites) and the methodology for subnational and small area estimation. The subnational methodology involves the use of logistic and loglinear models.

Labour productivity growth in the Canadian business sector slowed substantially after 2000. Most of the slowdown occurred in the manufacturing sector.
