Culture gross domestic product

Culture gross domestic product (GDP) is the value added related to the production of culture goods and services across the economy, regardless of the producing industry. For example, for the performing arts industry, which may generate GDP from admissions to live performances (a culture activity) and food and beverage services (a non-culture activity), only the GDP from admissions to live performances (the culture activity) would be counted. However, it would also include any GDP from admissions to live performances produced outside the live performance industry.

The culture GDP measures the GDP from the production of all culture goods and services in the Canadian economy, regardless of the industry in which they are produced.

Culture jobs

Culture jobs are defined as the number of jobs that are related to the production of culture goods and services in that industry. Therefore, they cover only the jobs in the industry required to produce culture activities. In the example above, only the individual selling admission tickets would be in the estimate of culture jobs.

Sport gross domestic product

Sport gross domestic product (GDP) is defined as the value added in an industry that is related to the production of sport goods and services across the economy, regardless of the producing industry. For example, for a sporting event that generates GDP from admissions to sporting events (a sport activity) and food and beverage services (a non-sport activity), only the GDP from admissions to sporting events (the sport activity) would be included in sport GDP. However, it would also include any GDP from admissions to sporting events produced outside the sport industries.

Sport jobs

Sport jobs are defined as the number of jobs that are related to the production of sport goods and services, regardless of the industry. For example, a sporting event may have two jobs: a job collecting admissions to sporting events (a job from sport activity), and a job as a bartender in the food and beverage services (a job from non-sport activity). Only the job collecting admissions to sporting events (a job from sport activity) would be included in the estimate of sport jobs.
