Gross domestic expenditures on research and development — By performing sector and funding sector
Table summary
This table displays Canada's gross domestic expenditures on research and development by performing sector and funding sector in millions of dollars. The row headers provide data for 11 years including preliminary and intention data for the two most current years, first for the performing sector followed by the funding sector. The column headers list the individual sectors - federal government, provincial governments, business enterprise, higher education, private non-profit organizations, foreign and total. All sectors have funding sector data. Performing sector data excludes the foreign sector. There is one footnote that indicates provincial research councils and foundations are added to the provincial government sector. A note indicates that components may not add to totals due to rounding. A second note explains that performing sector data for the private non-profit sector are only available at the Canada level starting in the year 2000. The third note states that the business enterprise sector's research and development expenditure distribution by source of funds is modelled.

Note(s):
Components may not add to totals due to rounding. The private non-profit (PNP) sector appears in both the performing and funding sector for the gross domestic expenditure on research and development (GERD) for Canada. Commencing with reference year 2000 the data for the private non-profit sector performing research and development are not distributed by provinces or territories. The national totals of research and development by performing sector include the PNP sector. The data for the private non-profit sector funding research and development continue to be distributed by provinces and territories. The provincial and territorial distribution by sources of funds of the business enterprise sector R&D expenditures is derived through a modeling system, which prorates values based on reported business enterprise provincial and territorial R&D.
