  • 23. Why non-innovators don't innovate Archived
    Articles and reports: 88-003-X20030036656
    Geography: Canada
    Description:

    Statistics Canada's Survey of Innovation 1999 collected information on the innovation activities of firms in Canadian manufacturing and selected natural resource industries. The results provide insight into why a firm chooses to take the path of innovation or opts to be a non-innovator. For most non-innovators, the perception is that innovation is not required or is irrelevant to their industry. Non-innovative firms analysed here are those that did not introduce a new or significantly improved product or process in the previous three years and that did not carry out any innovative activities during the survey period.

  • 24. Evolution of services as knowledge suppliers and innovators Archived
    Articles and reports: 88-003-X20020026373
    Geography: Canada
    Description:

    The manufacturing sector is looked upon as the source of innovation and technological change, but the sheer size of service activity in the economy means that the competitive advantage will increasingly depend upon this sector's ability to innovate and produce technologies.

  • 25. IP protection practices by manufacturing firms Archived
    Articles and reports: 88-003-X20020016147
    Geography: Canada
    Description:

    Canadian manufacturing firms fall into two groups: The first uses patents and trademarks as a part of successful innovation strategy consisting of regular R&D financed by R&D grants and tax credits introducing world-first innovations. These are usually large firms in the technology-intensive core sector. The second group includes firms of all sizes in all sectors that rely mostly on trade secrets. They typically transfer technology from abroad by introducing Canada-first innovations and rely on government information services more than on R&D grants and tax credits.

  • 26. The importance of competition for innovation Archived
    Articles and reports: 88-003-X20020016163
    Geography: Canada
    Description:

    Firms have to be highly innovative to gain competitive advantage in today's increasingly competitive global market. The competition-innovation linkage is empirically examined using Statistics Canada's Survey of Innovation 1999. The evidence shows competition has a positive and significant impact on both technology invention and technology adoption.

  • 27. Innovation in Canadian Manufacturing: Provincial Estimates Archived
    Articles and reports: 88F0006X2001013
    Description:

    The Survey of Innovation 1999 was conducted in the fall of 1999. It surveyed manufacturing and was the first innovation survey of selected natural resource industries. This is the second in a series of working papers that will examine the results from the Survey of Innovation 1999. This second paper examines innovative manufacturing firms at the provincial level. It includes descriptive statistics and statistical tables for selected questions from the survey.

  • 28. Innovation in Canadian Manufacturing: National Estimates Archived
    Articles and reports: 88F0006X2001010
    Description:

    The Survey of Innovation 1999 was conducted in the fall of 1999. It surveyed manufacturing and was the first innovation survey of selected natural resource industries. This is the first in a series of working papers that will examine the results from the Survey of Innovation 1999. This first paper examines innovative manufacturing firms. It includes descriptive statistics and statistical tables for selected questions from the survey. Subsequent papers will include an examination of innovation in manufacturing at the provincial level, and innovation in selected natural resource industries at the national level and at the provincial level.

  • 29. Innovation and Connectivity: The Nature of Market Linkages and Innovation Networks in Canadian Manufacturing Industries Archived
    Articles and reports: 11F0019M2001165
    Geography: Canada
    Description:

    This paper investigates the extent to which customers/suppliers innovation networks are related to the size and pattern of inter-industry goods flows. It does so by devising a diversification index to measure the nature of inter-industry links that arise from the flow of goods and services from suppliers to customers. It then relates these diversification patterns to the importance of customer and supplier innovation networks.

    Input/output matrices are used to measure the extent of inter-industry links and the pattern of inter-industry goods flows. The importance of customer/supplier networks is derived from data coming from the 1993 Survey of Innovation and Advanced Technology.

    The study finds that the importance of supplier and of customer innovation networks is related to the structure of inter-industry trade flows. Where there are a small number of important backward inter-industry links, firms are more likely to make greater use of supplier partnerships. On the other hand, the importance of customer links increases when there is a large number of industry linkages downstream.

How do I use the filters and the search box?

  • You can initiate a search by entering keywords or selecting filters (e.g., under Subject, Geography, etc.) on the left side of the page.

  • Filters can be used together or in any combination. Each time you select a filter, the results on the page are updated.

  • To start a new search, click on the Clear all button above the search box or deselect each filter.

  • Specified keywords and filters appear above the search box. You can deselect any or all the tags to refine or clear your search.

How do I refine my search?

  • You can enter keywords in the search box. It is not necessary to use “+” or “, “ or “AND”.

  • You can delete some or all of the keywords from your search string.

  • Quotes around keywords limit the search to a specific phrase.

    • For example, “labour force survey” will limit results to products containing this phrase.

  • Use “or” between keywords to obtain results that contain one or more search terms.

    • For example, labour or­ force or survey will limit results to products containing any or all of these words.

How does the search work?

  • This search looks for results that have your query term in the title, description, subject, geography, product number or other information about the product.

    • For example, when searching the term ‘Diseases’, all results with the word ‘Diseases’ in the title, description or tagged the subject appear.

  • The text within an article or publication are not searched. For full text searching of articles, use the site search.

Sort help

How are the results ordered?

The Sort by feature provides three options:

  • By date – sorts results by product release date starting with the most recent.
  • By relevance is only needed or beneficial when you use the search box and submit a search query. Results are ordered by a combination of where the search term appears in the content, e.g., if it appears in the title, it likely means the product is more relevant to your search; how up to date or new the content in the product is; how popular the product is; and other factors.
  • By title – sorts results alphabetically.
